What a week...

It's been crazy. I have had something going on every single day this past week.

Get ready for long itinerary of my boring, mundane life. hee hee

Tuesday 8/7: Long time friend from Texas was in town...We spent the day doing tourist stuff in Duluth...Vista Fleet Cruise around the Harbor (very interesting) and a visit to the largest fresh water Aquarium in the state? Country? I dunno. It was big and full of fish. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 3. But, I am not interested in fish. Nathan thought it was awesome.

Wednesday 8/8: Nathan's sports physical in Duluth and of course lunch...I made him eat a salad at McDonalds...am I a cruel mother or what? (salad and water - since I am not doing pop)

Thursday 8/9: Lunch with former colleagues from School at a restaurant in Duluth - Fun catching up on their summers. Food was good - conversation fun - afternoon...gone...

Friday 8/10: Drove to school to pick up my Teacher editions for the two new classes...spent almost two hours in the building...by the time I got home...afternoon...gone...

Saturday 8/11 and Sunday 8/12: Post office fiasco (see previous post) - then run to Duluth for paint for Nathan's room...totally redid Nathan's room - I might post pics...good bye dinosaur border that I lovingly painted on oh so many years ago - hello bold colors and new shelves....but an all weekend project...

Monday 8/13: Two hour trip to visit my friend Becky in Wisconsin - spent the day chatting, shopping, chatting, laughing, shopping, eating, laughing, crying, laughing...it was a very good day...Friends are such a valuable commodity.

Tuesday 8/14: It's Fair week and I should dig up a couple items to enter at the fair - Nathan is at football practice...I am going to get my hair cut and colored - darn sun is turning me blonde (nothing wrong with blonde, except my eyebrows are dark brown) - the day is flying by...

Future plans:
Wednesday: overnight company and a family dinner to entertain said company...
Thursday: Trip to the Casino with sister and Gramma
Friday: Step daughter and boyfriend coming into town for fair weekend.
Saturday: Bring Andy back to college (four hours away)

It's just a little crazy...no time for house cleaning knitting.

It's been so crazy - I even missed Cass's contest. I would pop on and off my computer, thinking I would have more time the next day...well, it didn't happen. So, congrats Cass on post #222 and sorry I missed the fun.
