And I am actually in a good mood today. It helps that the boss is out golfing and I am able to work without being interrupted. I hope the weather is as gorgeous at your home as it is here.
Saturday was my mum's birday. She says that it is the only day of the year that us kids are nice to her. pshh. Whatever. Okay so we weren't bitchy like we normally are. We are the crankiest kids anyone can ever imagine. Oh and don't get me started on the bickering. We all do that. I think Adam has even wrote us off. He pretty much refuses to do anything with my mother and I because we just go on and on. But you know what is worse? When my brother's kids are there too. I think he spoils them. I'm much more strict. My mother is the extreme opposite. So none of us agree on how to treat them. That just causes more bickering.
On this birthday, we found that it was mom, me, bro and Sam. (He's almost 7). We were supposed to go out to the Renaissance Fair but my head hurt because I got pounced in my sleep from my cats and they actually scratched up my face. So that was another point. I would be outside the entire day with a bruised up arm and huge scratches on my face. I don't think my brother wanted to walk around with me like that either because people would "assume" that he beat me. LOL After the initial fit that Sam had, I left. I can't stand when kids act like that. It reminds me of myself and I can't have that. LOL After I got cleaned up, I went back over to see if he was done. I know, I am mean but he is old enough not to act like that.
We went to a German festival that is down the street from my house. (It was indoor and I wore a jacket.) I thought it was really fun. We got to eat German food, have beer and Sam got to do arts and crafts. Then as our gift for her birthday, we put in the vegetable garden. I'm so glad Ronnie was there because when we put in our flower garden, it killed me. Adam helped out and it was nice seeing 2 men doing most of the labor. Then mom and I planted our veggies. It is a great garden and I expect a lot from it. We finished up the evening with pizza on the picnic table.
Sunday was quiet for the most part. We had are normal brunch and Ronnie and Sam joined us. I rested for a few hours and then started the 15 loads of laundry I had. I don't know if there is that much but it felt that way. I haven't done laundry since before Vegas! I was getting kinda nekkid. Good thing Adam kept the towels up. Later, me and mom planted the green beans and the last of the odds and ends.
I have to say it was lovely spending most of the weekend outside. How was your weekend?
