Happy Tuesday!
Thank you for stopping by for coffee. Grab yourself some brew and let’s get down to business.
So, did you see The Hunger Games? I haven’t yet, and I’m on media blackout. So please don’t tell me anything just yet…we can discuss it after this weekend. I’m sure I’ll be bursting to talk about it.
Since we can’t talk about THE movie of the season, let’s discuss our weekends. What did you do? Where did you go?
As I mentioned in Friday’s Sound Bytes, my mom and I made the trek to the capital city for a little retail therapy and of course cheesecake. I’d love to tell you that my shopping trip was huge success and I bought loads of new clothes. But alas, I was sorely disappointed. Perhaps it’s because our weather is a little wacky and the stores haven’t caught up yet or perhaps it had to do with the crappy customer service I received. When I walk around a store twice, with an armload of clothes and not a single sales person says “hi” or offers to get me a dressing room … I’d say they don’t deserve my business.
The little redhead joined us on our trek through mall-land and he NEVER TOOK A NAP. GAH!!!!
He was trooper and other than REALLY wanting to see this duck {then promptly freaking out once he did} he didn’t really loose it until we headed for home.
I believe he just earned himself a spot in our shop-till-you drop club. He’ll be honored.
At the end of a failed shopping day and a four hour drive, I drowned my sorrows in a big piece of cheesecake…AAAHHHHH…
Even though I didn’t buy much on our roadtrip, I did take a Sunday detour through Target and Ann Taylor to pick up some new springy additions to the wardrobe and some much needed workout gear. So, I didn’t leave the weekend empty handed.
Oh, and while I spent the day getting my shop on, B2 and number one son were hanging out with the Porsche club.
So I’d say a good weekend was had by all.
Well, that’s about it from me. I have two late nights at work this week {not too excited}, but at least I’ll get comp time for them.
What does your week entail? Please tell me something fun, as I need to live vicariously through you.
Have a good one and don’t forget to head over to Amy’s for some brew and convo.
>My week resembles what I posted about my Sunday. I cannot wait until Scott's home (at 1 AM on Sunday). Kids have an early out tomorrow, so I think I'm going to take them ice skating. I haven't had my skates on in over two years — yikes!
>Oh my goodness, that cheesecake looks so good! I want to see Hunger Games as well but still haven't. I am really hoping that the movie turns out as good as the book. I also had some retail time with my mom this weekend, so fun! Thanks for the coffee!
>Oh my goodness that cheesecake looks amazing!! I can't even remember the last time I had cheesecake, and now you're seriously making me crave some! Sorry your shopping expedition wasn't as successful as you hoped, but it does sound like it was still a good weekend all in all. Hope your next weekend is a good one as well!
>great pics!! i remember my two freaking out at disneyland when they finally got to meet mickey and minnie… and that cheesecake looks too, too evil…
thanks for coffee 🙂 x
