My weekend was pretty darn good, I have to say. Though I worked grading papers all Friday afternoon and Ash went out to play cards, things were still good. I took the kids to target that evening, which they love. I have never seen kids so happy just to walk around a store. Granted, if they’re good, I will buy them something cheap. But not always. On Saturday I got up early and ran trails with a friend. Good run! When I got back, we all took a walk around the neighbourhood. Mid-day we went out to pick up a pizza and walked around various stores in that shopping center while we waited. Everyone napped. Then we played in the yard and washed our cars before going to Costco for a rotisserie chicken. Except 5:45 is too late for them; they’re so good and cheap they fly off the shelves. We then watched Lady and the Tramp.

Sunday was all bagels and cleaning and impromptu lawn mowing. I tanned for a bit but really got the cleaning bug. I was so happy to finally get some things taken care of in the house. Elliot didn’t nap but that’s OK; he behaved otherwise. In the afternoon I threw together a lasagna and after dinner, we took another walk. It’s too bad that the night had to end with FSU losing to Cincinnati and not progressing to the Sweet 16 but you know, so it goes. Is it proper protocol to apologize to my student when I see him?  I mean, he played well, all in all.

Since it’s a freebie week, I’ll pick a random song I ended up liking from a commercial: Fun’s We are young.
I love running to this song!
