Sick Day
photo by ratterrell
There are a few good reasons a long weekend was just what I needed:
To dust my entire bedroom.
To find a nearby farm stand and stock up on green beans the length of my arm.
To re-watch What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.
To drop off a hefty load at Goodwill.
To care for The Man, who decided to get sick on our three-day holiday weekend.
And that is what I’ll be doing today.
What did you do this long weekend?

I like the green bean reason. You’ll have to go to DiBruno’s and get some pasta the length of your arm as well.

Sometimes a long weekend is just what you need to just stuff DONE. I am currently at the office checking off things on my to-do list. I’m hoping it’ll feel really good tomorrow (?!)

I also got a goodwill bag together. That’s about as productive as I’ve been. I’m working on adding to that list…
I hope the man feels better.

I love Whats Eating Gilbert Grape! I have spent the weekend at my parents cabin in the mountains of Utah sitting on the deck watching the Aspen trees rustle in the breeze, reading, and watching two boys, who are so caked in dirt they look like Pig Pen, go exploring with grandpa.

I’ve got a pile of goodwill stuff that has been sitting in the hallway for probably close to a year now. I should have taken care of that over the weekend
I usually spend my three-day weekends just like any other weekend:
Cooking and Computer-ing

Ugh, I got sick yesterday myself. No fun. I just have a head cold, but… still. It’s hard to be the life of the cookout when you just want to curl up on the picnic table and take a nap. Hope your hubby feels better and that you don’t get sick!
