Hi to anyone who happens by here today!
Hoping a few more of you take a minute to post than have been as of late. Are any of you out there??
Our weekend was really nice. We left late morning Friday and headed north. Hubs had to go to a radio station up there to record a couple of things, so I did a little shopping while he did that.
We checked into the resort, and then just relaxed a bit. We met up with his radio/work partner and her family for dinner a nice little Mexican restaurant. Had a nice time.
Saturday morning hubs had his 5K run. It was so cold and snowing, so I just relaxed in our room. Once he was done, we grabbed lunch (shared a sandwich) in the sports bar while watching the start of the MSU game. The game went bad fast, so we decided to ditch! We went to check out a brewery that we hadn't heard of before in the area. Ran into some friends there, so that was fun. Stopped into a great little restaurant that we love for a small bite before heading home. On the way we popped into the Northern MI's version of Trader Joes. I picked up a few things that I haven't tried before and hubs got some coffee beans.
It was just a really relaxing couple of days. Nothing major planned, so we kind of planned as we went. We never get to do that, so it really was nice.
Home yesterday. Neither one of us left the house all day. The only time that happens is on Christmas day, because nothing is open! Even then, sometimes hubs runs to the gas station for coffee or something! Now, I stay home all day/night quite often, but for hubby to not go anywhere is unheard of! It was really an accomplishment for him almost!
I worked on laundry, and he did last minute pre-winter yard clean up. Putting away some lawn chairs and the grill and a couple other things that needed to be done a couple of weeks ago, but hadn't been taken care of. They are now, so that is good.
Today, I have to fold the clothes that were hanging to dry and put those away. Also need to do some kitchen things. Dishwasher, wash a few things that can't go into the dw, and definitely need to shake the rugs and mop the floor. It is in definite need of attention!!
Tomorrow we are headed to the other side of the state to a huge Christmas store and the larger outlet mall to Christmas shop. I am hoping to get most of our shopping done. Hubs is going to be working on the drive over and back on his computer in car. Other than that, he will have the day kind of off.
We are going to VA for Christmas to be with our son and dil, along with our other 2 sons, so I am trying to keep gifts fewer and small since we will be hauling all of it down there.
I think I am going to make butternut squash macaroni and cheese for dinner tonight. Will see how that works out! Trying to cut back on the consumption of meat these days. Will also see how that works out!!
Not much else is happening here. Hope to see what y'all are up to! Please check in!
Have a great day!!
