Happy Presidents Day!

My weekend was really quite lovely. I came home Friday afternoon, and pretty much vegged. Had a lovely dinner at B-Dubs (mmm...delicious) and then sat around and watched tv. Apollo 13 was on Bravo, and it's only the best movie ever!

Saturday we had lots of snow, which Sammy loved. It was pretty icy out on the roads, but as Sammy doesn't drive, he didn't mind. We headed to church early to get ready for the dinner Saturday night. That afternoon Mom and I had hair appointments. I was just going to get a touch-up on my color and a trim, but Shelly had other ideas. She asked if I'd ever thought of going red. Go for it! I said. It's a lot darker, much closer to my original color, but I really like it. I only had the blonde since summer anyway, so I wasn't attached.

The dinner was the soup/stew night and also Clergy Appreciaton. This means that, in addition to appreciating our priest, we had all the Dominican nuns to appreciate. I've never seen so many nuns all in one place before. It was very nice, and I think they all had a great time.

Saturday night we went to the 99 cent movie sale at Movie Gallery (I just realized my keyboard has a dollar sign but no cent button...curious) and vegged some more watching our cheap movies. Sunday I got some work done in the morning and went shopping and to lunch with Mom. I go through shopping withdrawl down here. There's no stores other than Wal-Mart and I can only take so much of the Manchester population in a Wal-Mart. So, we went to Target and Kohls, lots of good sale stuff. Sunday night was more vegging and tv watching (wow, I thought I did a lot this weekend, but reading back over this, I realize I'm a lazy bum...)

I left Sammy with my parents since I'll be home again tonight for the Preds game. It's just easier since it's cold out and he's not a huge fan of car rides anyway. I missed him last night though. I've really gotten used to him laying all over me at night and snoring in my ear. I did get a really great night's sleep though...

Ok, so tomorrow is Mardi Gras, so we all have to eat something fat. Don't forget, I know I won't!
