Oh my achin' bacon!

It was a productive weekend but boy, I'm sore. Friday night I decided to save myself some trouble by getting the groceries. I was tired as hell but went anyway. In the end, I had supper at 9 p.m. Not ideal to say the least. Saturday a.m., Daddy took E out to by parts for the van...and for lunch at "Old McDonalds" while I sayed home to rake the backyard. My hope is to have most of E's b-day party outside. Can't believe she'll be 3 in May...yikes! Anyway, I got most of it done and the rest I left in piles to bag after naptime. But instead of having a nap, MIL & I went to Costco shopping. I just picked up a few things but MIL rarely goes and bought a boat load. :) Ended up E didn't nap for DH while we were gone but he said both girls were great. I decided to get E outside with me to help with the leaves...aka playing on the swings. DH dug out the firepit and then bbqed hamburgers for supper...so delish. We chilled for the rest of the evening.

Sunday a.m. I started raking the front yard. I managed to get it all in piles before E & I went to church. DH stayed home fixing our van and MIL stayed home with L who is sick. After mass, we ate lunch and I tried to get E down for a nap...fortunately she did. MIL's sister came over and DH changed her winter tires over to all seasons. Then the 3 of them went out to see Frank Lowe's band SIDE KIXX at The Jolly Mug. When E and L woke from their naps, I called the gang and we met them at Canadiana for supper...it was all part of MIL's weekend long birthday celebration. ;) In the evening we watched a bit of one of E's rentals and off to bed. Today MIL is home so that's 3 nights she's gotten up with L for me...too bad E is still waking in the nights. This a.m. I was up with E then back to bed...took me over an hour to get back to sleep...drat! Tomorrow E's getting her eye surgery done...hopefully. She does have a runny nose but it's not too bad. I'm hopeful they'll still do it...they better! I have MIL watching L, DH took time off work and not to mention the trip in, paying for parking, etc.

Well, I'm off for a nap myself. Hope you're all enjoying this great weather. E & I finished bagging the leaves this a.m. Next wknd, we're mowing.

TTFN!
