Guilty pleasure

So, what did y'all do this weekend? Yeah, I didn't do a whole lotta anything ... and it was awesome. It's been a long while since my weekend was filled with one grueling and/or fun, but exhausting and/or laborious task. We're such a busy family and the summer is so short, between vacations, family visits, band shows and kids stuff, most of our weekends are full up. But not this one. Bill had a work function for most of the day Saturday that kept us from driving over the mountain to see all my mom's siblings together in one spot. I sorely missed going, but luckily many of my family members (including my 87-year-old grandmother) are on Facebook. So I've already gotten to see the pictures of the six "kids" all lined up in age order. Fer cute! So while I missed a family event, I did get a whole bunch of sleep — which I needed in the worst way. Saturday, Mar and I slept in until 10 a.m. I can't remember the last time I slept that late. Then we sat around in our pajamas until we had a good enough reason to get dressed. The afternoon saw us riding our bikes around delivering invitations to Margaret's upcoming birthday party. She's going to be 9. Nine! The remainder of the day included hanging out with our friends in their backyard and hanging out with friends in our backyard. There was some game playing and some Thai food eating. They were was some more sleeping in and the various tasks around the house, but nothing exceptional. And the "nothing exceptional" weekend is just the weekend I needed.
