Long Weekend

This past weekend was a long weekend for me. I woke up Friday and did not feel good at all. I think it was dinner the night before or my body sensing that I wanted a day off. Either way it was nice to have a day off. Zora and I slept late and then just relaxed the rest of the day. We went on a long walk and when Pete came home we went to Lowe's and Home Depot. We got a new trimmer, grass seed, fertilizer, and mulch and a bush. We had to go to two different stores because we have a gift card to Lowe's, but they don't carry the mulch that we have been using. Hopefully it was the last load of mulch. The back bumper of my car touches the ground when you put 14 bags of mulch in the trunk and backseat. Zora is getting better at riding in the front seat on the floor between my legs.

Saturday, Pete worked on the lawn and I cleaned the house. We also got two new tires and an alignment for my car. We tried to have it inspected and they would not do it because there was metal showing through on the front tires. Those tires are only a year and a half old, but because of the poor alignment they wore down quickly. So Big Blue has two new tires and some shims in the back axle. Don't ask me the particulars, but the car does drive better.

Sunday, Pete and I didn't talk to each other most of the day. He got mad at me, then I got mad at him for not telling me what was wrong. It was a fun day. Not. I was good though. I left and went shopping, which can be dangerous, but I only got what I needed. I really want a new car, so I have to spend smartly.

Sunday night I made a new recipe from Giada's new cookbook. My cousin works for her, so my aunt sent me a copy of the cookbook. I made Prosciutto raviolis. They were pretty easy to make and I think they came out pretty good. It was easy because you use wonton wraps. It may be a new dinner for the rotation.

This week is going to be slow. There is not much going on except a friend of Pete's from college is coming Wednesday and staying over the night on the way to NY. We saw him in June at the wedding, but did not get to visit with him. The day was crazy.

Thats about it. Off to finish the last 48 minutes of work.
