Long Weekend & Short Week

This holiday weekend was really wonderful.  I spent four busy, full days hanging with the family and the Boyfriend.  Thursday truly was a day of thanks as I have a lot to be thankful for this year (getting a job, my sister and brother-in-law moving back to St. Louis, my healthy, sweet nephews, my mom recovering from her very serious and scary illness, and me finding someone special).

I had to work a little on Friday but that evening I spent with good friends, wine and lots of laughs.  Saturday I tried to shop some but it was a disappointing trip.  That evening the Boyfriend and I took the little nephews to see the Muppets movie.  It was sweet and the boys enjoyed it.  Today was sister-time, having lunch and shopping.  This evening was nice and quiet as I caught up on laundry, TV and decorated my house for Christmas.

This week will be busy.  I am leaving on Thursday to head to the Boyfriend’s home state for his sister’s wedding.  I am excited and nervous all at the same time - more family to meet.  I feel I have so much to do between now and then and work is just getting in the way.
