 Posted: 02/24/03 - 07:53 Post subject: Weekend reports-meal time
was it bad (snack), fast food (okay), home cooked (good) or gormet(excellent)
mine was home cooked
We got a lot of snow moved in front of our house so that our driveway is not blocked with cars now. We went to a home show this weekend and got a lot of nice ideas for our home and even made a good contact on a company that will redo our walkin closet.
We had some nice home made dinners that Robin and I each made.
We got a lot of rain but my house stayed dry.

Home cooked.
Celebrated Jerry's new job Friday night by going to Fiesta Night for the school (bad taco's in the rec center gym). Not too glamorous, but I actually enjoy those things. The kids had a blast and it makes me feel connected to the community.
Saturday we continued the celebration by getting Penny (did I tell you all we changed her name?). The rest of the weeked pretty much revolved around her. Not much sleep the past two nights, but we'll survive.

A little of all, actually. (Except gourmet  )
I took my son out for lunch-Chinese food--to get out of the house.
I made a huge dinner of waffles. I love waffles. Those are the most memorable--the rest are but a blur.

 to RR. Sounds like a rough one.
Me? Somewhere between fast food ( ) and home cooked. Did some maintenance on my bikes and some stuff around the house. Taught my youngest daughter (12) how to make spaghetti and banana pudding. Got in a good run on Saturday and did a trial duathlon on Sunday and felt that I did pretty well for a dry run.
Edited to add that I did do some outside riding this weekend.

I guess fast food-to-good here too. Kept busy all weekend so I wouldn't have to think about the surgery, consequently the house is spotless--at one point last night I was vaccuming nonexistent lint from the carpet--fridge and freezer are stocked, made baked ziti, veggie burgers and veggie burritos and a london broil marinated in teriyaki/garlic/fresh ginger. Somehow I think we won't starve while I'm laid up  What upgraded my weekend was getting to talk to Alan, Kristin and Cheryl and all the PMs I got wishing me well. Thanks guys!!! 
CB, what made you change her name??

Jerry and I weren't crazy about the name Ivy, so we talked the kids into changing it. Penny wouldn't be my first choice either, but we figure kids get naming rights. I can live with it.

CB - if you didn't have a sweetpea already, I'd say change the dog's name to sweetie; she has such a precious face.
Somewhere between home-cooked and gourmet; got some stuff done around the house, the dog is feeling better, we had a great time grilling out last nite in the snow. Only bummer is that this morning I can't go anywhere (my car is iced in) and it wouldn't matter because the roads are all ice under snow so they aren't plowed yet. And our o-so-wonderful mayor laid off about 20 of the city's snow removal staff on Saturday. They were already overworked and understaffed to begin with. This should be an interesting week if we keep getting snow. No one will go anywhere unless they know how to drive an SUV (and unfortunately, the SO took the Explorer to a trade show so I am STUCK here). You can't really walk/bike anywhere either since not everyone shovels their walks. The snow/ice is at least a foot deep in places still.

I guess homecooked. Friday we went to some friends' house for dinner. Michael was a little saint. Saturday morning he even gave us a gift by sleeping in for two extra hours! Sunday morning he did it again, which was even better. Painted our living room and got some me time to tidy up some things around the house.

I'd call it a 'buffet'...
Friday, went skiing...almost died = good times. Came home. Watched my Bucks score a measly 58 points and ran.
Saturday went shopping. bought stuff. Came home and relaxed. Listened to the Bucks/Blazers game on the radio (Gary Payton and Sam Cassell = bliss) Great Saturday Night Live! Loved the special appearance by Will Farrell and Britney spears...
Sunday, cleaned around the house. Went to go see Old School. Loved every silly minute of it...'Earmuffs!'

What about the ad-libbing wedding singer?  And the funeral: All we are is dust in the wind...Old people do that, you know!
