Hi Friends! Today I am joining Joyce for her Wednesday Hodgepodge...so let's have a little fun...
1. What is something that's had you "chuffed to bits" recently?
I would say Diana and Tommy. Watching them from afar- the way they look at each other- the way they take care of each other and how they are constantly laughing and trying to beat each other's athletic goals- they are so alike and I am so happy for both of them
2. Tell us about an instance recently where you were tempted to 'throw a wobbly' (expression used to describe tantrums thrown, usually by adults or people who should know better)
When clients don't pay- ha! Unnecessary stress for sure
3. Something everyone seems to love but is not your 'cuppa tea'?
Game of Thrones
4. Fish and chips, bangers and mash, shepherd's pie, roast beef with
Yorkshire pudding...which entree would you choose? Yes, you have to
choose.
I am sensing the British theme this week- ha! I guess sheperd's pie but I am intrigued by Yorkshire pudding
5. Something you want for your birthday this year?
Well it already passed and there were some answered prayers....hoping we are more comfortable financially this coming year...really hoping things turn around
Hi Friends and Happy Monday! I am here with Sarah and we are sharing about our weekends. So glad you stopped by!
Here is what ours looked like...
Friday
Someone was game day ready! The cheerleaders had to wear their special practice uniform to school- someone was pretending to be so chill but we could see how really excited she was ;)
After the girls were off to school, Rob and I snuck in a quick date walk before our work days started
That night, Rob and Eva headed to a hockey tournament and I headed down to Malden Catholic with Lea and friends. We watched the girls cheer and a very exciting football game.
The Jaguars came up short 28-13 but it
was such an exciting game and I got to hug our old Athletic Director and
Football Coach Bill.
I
also bumped into a college love who was there cheering is son on Malden
Catholic- oh when you least expect it, people just pop back into your
life- ha!
My parents joined us too which is just SO FUN...and someone else made the trip down to Malden before heading to his workout class- these two are the sweetest!
Such a great night despite the loss!
Saturday
We were up bright and early getting things done. Then Rob and Eva headed to more hockey games for her tournament.
I took Diana to Revitalize not only to get tea BUT to start training for her new job! She starts in October but is getting some training under her belt this month.
This is one of the Jess's who owns the shop- we just love them!
While Diana was training, I headed to WHS to catch some of the JV football game and especially Lea's son Brooks- they were dynamite and actually beat Malden Catholic- woohoo!
We were razzing our friend Dennis who does the music/dj'ing- the songs he was playing were cracking us up
Meanwhile at the hockey rink, someone couldn't stay out of the penalty box- HA~ She really kills me ;)
The Cyclones were on fire- they won the whole tournament and I guess, as a result, they get to play in a higher division this year-woot woot!
That night, Rob and I headed out to dinner with Bethany and Drew and had a great night!
Sunday
Rob and Eva were off to the last hockey games of the weekend and then a softball game.
Diana and I headed to Starbucks for a little date
Then I dropped her at home so she could do her homework. I headed to WHS for Blackout Tee Shirt Sorting Day- I was able to get 3 good hours of work in before I had to take off
The team finished up yesterday afternoon. I headed to Clark's celebration of life and all I can say is that was a beautiful afternoon. Jeff and his sister Kath did such a wonderful job honoring their dad- it was the tribute he would've asked for
Marblehead is such a beautiful town and I will never forget how Clark would take us on walking tours and narrate for us. He was one in a million
When I got home, the girls were so excited by a surprise from "Auntie Janie"...we had to send her a photo of course
Then we all enjoyed a family dinner- Robby B cooked for us and it was great to regroup and decompress together after a busy fall weekend. What were you all up to?
