Simple Saturday

Happy to see the weekend here, and even happier that there isn't really any kind of errands that need to be done. The little guardian angel in my car needs a rest. Crazy busy week this past week and way more close calls due to people not paying attention than there really should have been.
I hope that everyone has a great weekend, and stay safe because things just seem to be really crazy on the roads lately.

Oh the day after

So what is the best way to spend the day after any major holiday? Resting! Eclipse was kind enough to demonstrate just how this should be done. You find a comfy spot to stretch out...for her it is on a human for warmth but any place will work really. Don't forget to squirm around to get yourself all settled into your spot. Then you just stretch and settle in. Now Eclipse recommends a spot that doesn't wiggle around to much under you because that just wrecks your own comfy sleep time. She also recommends that you have the television on something good so that if you don't sleep you at least don't have to move to change the channel.

Well, here we are at the last Friday of 2008 and it is Feline and Furball Friday time. Time to head over to visit Steve and Pickle and all of the great animals of the week. Remember if you want to play along all you have to do is post your own and leave a link in comments over there. I hope everyone had a great Christmas, and that there is just a lot of relaxing done today.

Relaxing Sibling Sunday

Our weather has taken a very wonderful turn to cooler temperatures for the weekend because of hurricane Norbert. It is noon here and only 60 degrees, with wonderful breeze and giving me the chance to turn the air conditioner off for the very first time since...May? Such a pretty day is finding everyone in this house just relaxing. There have been some chores done like laundry and dishes, but other than that not much is getting done here today. I think after this last week we all have earned a day to just chill out.

The whole family will be home for a long weekend this week. Binky Sue and Sweetpea will be home for the whole week due to fall break time. The first quarter of school was done on Friday, and the first report cards should be coming in very soon here. Little Bug is not happy once again about the fact that her sister's have fall break during her birthday, but that is only because she would like to have the week off. Speaking of Little Bug, there are only 3 days till her 13th birthday. The last of my girls will be a teenager come Wednesday! Since she still has yet to tell me anything that she wants for presents I'm probably going to spend Wednesday running the million errands trying to find things for gifts, and her dinner meal. Usually with Little Bug I have the list months in advance, for some reason this year she hasn't been as kind to Mom...maybe something to do with being a teenager this year.

Since we are so relaxed here this weekend, there really isn't all that much for typing about. I hope that everyone is having a great Sunday, and that the coming week is good for all of us.
