Our Weekend

So it's Sunday evening already and I thought I'd do a blog post about our weekend. This like all weekends seemed at least one day too short.

Friday night we worked late, until 9:30'ish. We received an offer on our house which ended up being a super 'low ball' offer. It was disappointing and kind of a waste of time, but at least we are getting bites on the house. While it stresses me out, I know that we'll have it sold soon and am ready to wait the market out if needed. On the way home, we rented a bunch of DVDs and stayed up late watching movies.

Saturday morning we got up early and headed over to McDonalds to grab some breakfast and dine with all of the McDonalds "regulars" which includes many elderly people and one man in particular who was sleeping in his booth. He is there nearly every Saturday and Sunday morning and so we usually have a short conversation with him whenever we see him, but this time he was completely asleep sitting up.

Then we went home and Ciege worked on his laptop (still working on some project stuff) which I sat beside him and watched some movies.

That evening we went to a Steelheads hockey game with Tossie and her good friend Brian. They treated us to the evening out, which we really appreciated. It was a great time and was fun getting a chance to chat with them. The highlight of the evening was this little chubby 9 year old boy who would stand up and dance wildly anytime there was music playing of any kind of beat. This kid had the moves! He did the sprinkler, pop and lock, running man...you name it. It was awesome, really humorous and made the evening really entertaining. I have to admit I was watching the dancing more than the hockey. I would have loved to take a picture of him, but thought it was probably not a good idea to go humiliating him on my blog like that :) When we got home, I had a hankering for some Chinese food, so I made some sweet & sour chicken with pork fried rice for dinner. By the time dinner was ready, it was 11pm. So we finished watching our dvds and ate dinner well past our bedtimes.

Sunday morning we slept the late night off a little by getting up around 10:30am. We had a light breakfast because we were meeting my Mom and Jonathan for lunch at Chilis. Lunch was great. It was nice to sit and chat with them and also nice to get out of the house.

So that was our weekend...it seemed to fly by. I would have loved to drag Ciege out to the ski slopes this weekend but today proved to be quite the lazy day and work really got in the way of our weekend plans. Hopefully we can get out during the evenings this week.
