A good weekend

[feliciakw]

Had a very nice weekend this past weekend. The parental units came to visit for my b-day. The weather was unseasonably warm (I really do wish we'd get a substantial snow at some point. It doesn't feel like we've had winter at all), and we did a little downtown shopping, watched some TV (introduced the folks to BBC's Sherlock), and had people in for cupcakes and ice cream (on Saturday).

George made waffles for breakfast on my b-day, and we ate out at some of our favorite restaurants over the weekend. For my b-day dinner, we checked out someplace new, The Silk Mill Grill, which is in a building that used to be a parachute factory during WWII.

Geo gave me S5 of N3. From Mother and Daddy I got some spending money and a sweater. From my MiL, I got a little spending money and a nice mug.

Saturday was a lazy day, and people in, in the early evening. (Also, there's a new cajun place somewhere in town. George brought in red beans and rice for dinner. Yummy!)

Sunday was church, lunch at Giovanna, and nap time when we got home.


Thanks to my dear f-listies for the shout-outs. just_ruth send v-gift jelly beans. \o/

Thank you to luvwinchesters and ficwriter1966 for the b-day greets. And to kalquessa for the double greets here and on FB.

Thank you to sarcasticval for the FB greets!

And of course to izhilzha, who sent me FB greetings as well. Thanks, hon!

(I think that's everyone. If I missed someone, I might have missed the greets this weekend.)

Geo and I continue to work on our profile album. I want to send a PDF to our case worker today, just to make sure we're going in the right direction.

I can't believe the month of January is all but gone. We've got grant deadlines we need to look into, and Easter is a bit early this year, and I'm still waiting on reader copies of plays so I can select something for Good Friday. Eep!

Sounds like you had a very nice weekend!

I too wish we'd get some colder weather. Friends and family are accusing of bringing the California weather with us. Nieces and nephews have not taken any snow days this year.

Good luck with the profile album. :)

We sent a PDF of our first draft to the case worker last night. \o/ So it should be in her in-box this morning. Still working on it, but that's progress.

This weekend: Grant applications.

Yes, I'd love to have a day of snow. I doubt it will happen, given I have a new boss, but still, it would be nice.

P.S. re: your profile, I have a great picture of you and Geo with me at the Roosevelt from the wedding. It is too large to email you... shall I print a copy and mail it? :)

Oh, that would be good. Thanks!

Also, I'll get the booties in the mail sometime this week. I'm trying to find an appropriately sized box.

Hey, belated works. There are still cupcakes left.

Thanks!
