Another Weekend Bites the Dust
Woman in the Middle | August 30, 2015How has your weekend been? Mine was …normal…for us anyway.
I finished a story for our local daily newspaper. I write a local history column every other week, along with a friend who writes the other weeks. This coming week is my week, so it was down to the wire, time to get ‘er done. This one was very interesting to me, about a high-ranking Russian family who moved to my area after the Russian revolution. Who would have thought?
I also got the notice about an upcoming meeting of the board of an organization I belong to….that will be at my house on Tuesday! Oh boy! I scrambled around and did some house straightening. The cleaning will come on Monday and Tuesday.
Saturday night we had dinner with friends and then enjoyed another night of line dancing and music. I really really think I am getting the electric slide down! I am not saying I look graceful or anything, but I get the steps right about 80% of the time. I also got in about 5000 steps line dancing. Yay!
There was a trip to Michael’s to pick up some embroidery floss, a trip to McDonald’s to get lunch, and more paper sorting and house straightening. Hubby spent some time on various cars, including time on the ground under a car. Not so fun for him anymore, that lying around on hard cement.
Oh, and of course, we cleaned up pet poo, we petted all four animals, we tried to get Blackie to eat, we did another socialization session with Honey and Nox… You know, just the usual! LOL!
What did you do this weekend?
What a busy, happy, productive life you lead! I thoroughly enjoyed this post.
I did the usual chores and finished another book from Sue Grafton; I’m on “J Is For Judgement”. I think that’s awesome that you write a column for a newspaper! =-O I also think it’s awesome that a high-ranking Russian family actually moved to your area. Were they royalty?
They were! I have no idea if they were related to the Czar, but the father of the man who moved here was a count.
Sounds like a perfect weekend to me!
