{Life} Everything Weekend

So, every Monday I will do my weekend review. Here goes:

Friday: Took Catera (DD) to Mt. Tom State Park & Lake, along with my dear friend Olivia (& Co-worker). We had a great time, Catera enjoyed trying to catch frogs and fish while I enjoyed tanning. It is really a beautiful state park with swimming, a snack bar, tables and grills, and hiking. On a weekday for a CT car it cost $6.00, I am not sure of the price for the weekend or an out-of-state vehicle, but I will find out and update. After a few hours on the beach, I dropped off Catera with her mom, brought Olivia home and hung out at the house. I have been reading "The Things We Do For Love", by Kristin Hannah, about a woman whose marriage has dissipated after infertility issues have made her and her husband strangers. It is an excellent book and comes highly recommended from me. I read for a few hours and then watched 'American History X', still one of my all time favorite movies. Lastly, my girlfriend Catherine came over for a little gab fest about life.

Saturday: Lounged around and straightened up some more around the house. Ran to Goodwill to drop off a few bags of clothes (go me for cleaning out my closet!). Ran to Target to get a card for Olivia's HS grad party. Spent the rest of the day at Olivia's graduation picnic, had tons of fun talking to people and slinging back some good ol bud light! Later on in the night, Olivia and 3 friends came over, along with my mima, Catherine, and DH. We all sat on the patio having a few drinks and played Kings Cup. A good night overall.

Sunday: Cleaned up after the night before's festivities (see a common thread? I'm ALWAYS cleaning!), went grocery shopping, and did laundry. My WONDERFUL, TALENTED husband re-cemented our stairway that goes down to our yard. They were falling apart, chipping, and were so very uneven that you could not even attempt to go down then after more than 1 drink! Uploaded some pictures from our North Carolina trip on to FB, and watched some TV with the hubs to wrap up the weekend.

Overall, a very good, busy weekend. No kids this weekend so we had the chance to do some stuff around the house we have been putting off. Just working this week. Look foward to an OOTD post in the next couple of days!
