I Love Fridays - {i love} my disorganized life

Friday. Arguably the best day of the week. Whether you work, go to school, or stay at home, Friday is…….

THE.

BEST.

DAY.

EVER.

For me, there was (what seemed to be) lots going on.

1. There was the Bronco game that I HAD to watch. No, seriously. In this family, it’s in the marriage contract.

2. I cleaned house and did some laundry. And took care of puppies. We still have some VERY adorable 8-week old pups available. Visit here for pics of them and their parents. If you’re interested, contact info is also there. *wink*

3. Although I detest like it, I can’t say that I love it….grocery shopping must be done. I swear I spend more on kids ‘lunch stuff’ groceries than I do on dinner groceries! Then Mark took me to lunch (thanks honey!). We went to The Union House. Guess what we had for dessert?

A Chocolate Waffle Sundae!

And yes, it was most definitely as good as it looks!

4. Mark took me to breakfast! OK, so I know it doesn’t sound all that busy, but in a marriage it is necessary to keep the alone time going, so this is just one of those things that needed to be done, you know, for the sake of the family. (I just realized that it looks like we eat out alot…we totally don’t…I promise!)

5. I got a pretty! Now if I could only remember to stop by the flower shop…..

6. My mom had her knee replacement surgery. But because of the length of the surgery, the recovery time, and having to get back to the kids, I didn’t get to see her for very long. *insert sad face*

6. Back to the hospital, this time for most of the day. Mom was doing pretty good, but the pain meds were to thank for that! Repeat for today, and she gets to go home tomorrow. *Yay!*

7. I got a great resource book in the mail. It’s called “Fabrics A to Z: The Essential Guide to Choosing and Using Fabric for Sewing” by Dana Willard. It basically tells you all about different fabrics and how to use them. You can visit Dana’s blog here. The book is available from several sources, I got mine from Barnes and Noble online. I can hardly wait to use it!

This is what I have been working on for the last couple of weeks. I love to embroider. And I really love to embroider pillowcases! Not only are they pretty, but they’re practical, too.

This set is for a gift. Earlier in the year I talked about ‘Pay it Forward 2012’. Thankfully I learned from last year and didn’t wait until mid December to start crafting! Nope, this girl got smart. Only two more gifts to go, and the pillowcases are more than half finished! *pat on back* This is a really fun thing to do, and I will be doing it again next year. I hope you will join me!

The reason I think Fridays are so great?

Tomorrow I get to sleep in!

No waking kids up.

No lunches to make.

No homework for TWO. WHOLE. DAYS. *YIPEE*

So that was my week. Pretty fun looking back on it, minus the ‘mom in pain from surgery’ part.

What was your week like? What was the best part? The worst part? Can’t wait to hear all about it!

Thanks for visiting I Love My Disorganized Life!
