Scenes from Saturday

Landon spends most of his computer time checking out NFL scores and tracking his favorite team (The Atlanta Falcons).


Randy invested (it was $7 for this tiny bottle) in some Gorilla Glue to fix our fridge shelf (thank you Deidra for the advice).


I was happy to find the kids playing checkers together after Whitney finally cleaned the room (it's always her mess, never his).


My mom and I (and eventually Lori) went to lunch and Christmas shopping. The tomato basil soup and half a BLT combo was good, but I definitely could have managed a whole sandwich.


Quick, look out your windows for flying pigs, my mom now texts!

I took my coupon binder out for its first shopping excursion and it failed me miserably. Granted, I hadn't done my store research before the outing, I had just hoped to have coupons for some of the cleaning products I needed, but I didn't end up having any. Hopefully I'll fair better next week when Smith's does double coupons.


Adam and Amy were at the house for game night when we returned from shopping, so the grilled cheese sandwiches and chips and salsa were all ready for us. My mom went home, but Lori stayed and then Robyn and the kids came over too.


Why wouldn't Spiderman be hanging from the family room lamp?

It was a good Saturday, but I'm sad it's over. I have lots more things I need to do around the house before going back to work on Monday (hello resentment) and they won't get done because they're not Sunday-type activities. I'll just have to manage my time well after work each day next week, but right now I'm feeling pretty snippy about that. It would help if I actually saw some money from working, but I get paid monthly and my first (and only) check was for my first 5 days of work and was direct deposit so I never saw any of it. The next one will come AFTER Christmas...how's that for brilliant? Say it with me, I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful, I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful.

**What did you do today?
Have you done much Christmas shopping?
Do you enjoy a good BLT?
Do you have any Gorilla Glue?**

Comment Window Tidbit: Shouldn't the weekends be 3-days? I'm just saying.
