Y'all know that we are usually on the go -- all of the time! This weekend has been very slow. I think Mark is bored to death!
On Thursday, we had a Partner Parish meeting with four other churches that took up a chunk of our day. It was a good meeting that was over at 2:00 p.m. As soon as it was over, I scooted to the church gym to shop at Lil Lambs . . . because my shift to work Lil Lambs was at 2:30. Oh my goodness . . .our church has hosted this sale for years and I wish they offered it back when our kids were little.
I worked until 5:30 as the door keeper. Then I threw my things into the car and headed home because I had an assignment due by 11:59 p.m. I was almost home when I realized that I left my laptop in my office and my assignment was on that laptop. I was so irritated with myself. I called Mark and he said to come home first - he actually had dinner ready. After we ate, he drove me back to the church to get the laptop. I did homework on Thursday night.
On Friday, Mark and I both got our flu shots and a covid booster. Mark also got the two pneumonia shots. I've already had those.
I ordered groceries and we had those delivered.
I did homework PLUS we took a nap! I also stripped our bed, washed sheets, and remade the bed along with more homework. Then I washed my work clothes . . .then I washed 10 tablecloths from the New Member lunch that was a week ago. I was doing all that laundry while doing homework. We had to write a Null hypothesis and a Research hypothesis and provide validation for our Behavioral Research class. I also took a quiz for the other class and did two peer reviews.
Mark cooked Halibut for dinner and I cooked some veggies to go alongside.
Saturday morning arrived and I headed to my WW meeting. On the way home from the meeting, I stopped at Walmart to pick up a few things that Target didn't have when I placed my Shipt order on Friday. Our TV was on football all day Saturday. I had been craving a cheeseburger so we made hamburger patties with 93/7 ground beef and used Keto buns. I cooked some onion rings and ore ida fries in the air fryer. The food tasted so good! Mark got annoyed during the Auburn game so we flipped over to another streaming service and watched some random TV shows.
Just FYI - I also took a nap on Saturday!!
Sunday morning dawned bright and early and I headed to work and was at my desk by 6:45 a.m. I had to take some information up to the sanctuary and print my Sunday School lesson and make copies of a spreadsheet for a meeting. I headed to the Welcome Desk until 9:30. At 9:30, I ran up to the third floor to teach our adult Sunday School class. When I got off work about 11:15, I headed to Culinary Dropout where we treated our son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter #1 to lunch.
What did we do after that? I changed clothes and rode the stationary bike while Mark browned 4 pounds of hamburger, 1 pound of hot breakfast saussage and one onion. When I came downstairs after riding the bike, I assembled two Firecracker Casseroles for Tuesday night. I will head back to the church in about 20 minutes to attend a nominations/lay leadershp meeting.
It was wonderful to have a Friday and Saturday with nothing planned. As I mentioned, Mark was bored. He did go to Academy at some point on Saturday.
So . . .what did you do?

ReplyDeleteSounds like a nice weekend! I can't say I didn't relax some, but with my parents here I felt like I was always making sure everyone was happy and taken care of, etc. A truly relaxing weekend includes not having to take anyone anywhere or even worry about it!
ReplyDeleteLisa, I need a nap just thinking about all you do and accomplish in a day!! My goodness!! I chuckled at Mark being bored. You two run at lightning speed all the time. Naps should be mandatory and I'm glad you get them in when you can!! Have a blessed week ahead!! xo
ReplyDeleteIsn't just being home wonderful?? I love it so much. But PC likes being out and about. He is recovering from hip replacement surgery (day 5 of recovery) and we have been home most every day. He did have an appointment on Friday so he got out a bit then. I am loving being home!!
ReplyDeleteI need that firecracker casserole recipe. So tiresome trying to think of something to fix for dinner. Grrr. Your hamburger looks so yummy. Sometimes there's nothing better than a burger and fries. Maybe I will make us some this week. Have chicken thawing now for a potato chip chicken recipe.
Glad for your naps. We have been allowing a little time now and then for naps lately. And Paul has been stretched out on the couch napping with ice packs on his hip this week.
