Weekend Update

Is there anything better than hard boiled eggs in a salad? I don't think so.

I had a great weekend. I stayed home from work on Friday. Well, I worked from home. Got a lot done -- both for work and for the weekend. Jack got groomed. Jack got butchered. Friday night, we did nothing, really. We went out for Pei Wei, and rented "Eulogy", which turned out to be a pretty good movie. Todd fell asleep but I actually stayed up for it. That's pretty phenomenal. Well, I'd had a nap earlier.

Saturday, Todd played in a hockey game and I cleaned my apartment and paid bills. I also treated myself to a much needed mani/pedi. (The place where I go for this -- they're stepping it up a notch -- they're serving wine while you have your pedicure done, and they're giving your legs a salt scrub, a mask, and a long massage, just for the regular thang. Heaven on earth, my friends.) My family came into town and my friends threw an engagement party for us. It was a blast -- very strange to see so many worlds collide, though. Work, family, church, old friends, new friends. It's also very difficult to talk to everyone at your own party. A little stressful. But it was a great time. I'm very thankful that I have such wonderful friends and family. I'm lucky to have Todd, I'm lucky to have his family as well. It's just all good. Good, good, good, good good.

Sunday, we all went to church. Then to lunch. Then I took a fat nap. My cousin woke me up and encouraged me to get off the couch and bring Jack over for a walk before we went rollerblading.
1. I am abusing Jack by having him in that small apartment. I need out SOON.
2. Jack loves to take big dog walks and he never gets tired.
3. Jack thinks mommy on rollerblades is the strangest thing he's ever seen. Well, besides gift bags. He thinks gift bags are insane and scary.
4. Jack slept like a rock last night. He was pooped. And now when he hears my keys jingling, he thinks he's going to their house for a little puppy par-tay.

Anyway, I helped my cousin with some work, braided her daughter's hair, and was on my way home. Jack and I passed out and slept in this morning.

Life is beautiful.
Now, we need to find a house. Quick-style.
