Busy Weekend...
This weekend was pretty busy and was a mix between relaxation and stressing. Friday night Ann Marie and I stayed up way too late watching TV but it was relaxing. On Saturday morning we had a nurse come to the house to do a mini medical on Ann Marie and I for some life insurance that we applied for. Two things we had to do was give blood and pee into one of those little cups. I was able to give the blood to the nurse vampire, but I couldn't convince myself to pee into the damn cup! LOL I woke up late (10:30am) and did the morning bathroom routine forgetting that I had an appointent with the nurse. Dammit. I drank four glasses of water and stood there....**ahem**... staring into the cold, empty, plastic cup. 5 seconds...30 seconds...1 minute...5 minutes...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! How embarrasing. I gave up and told the nurse she'll have to come back when the tank was full. She wasn't impressed. I was glad I was tucked in and zipped up or else I would have thought she unimpressed about something else which would have given me a complex!
After lunch, Ann Marie and I took the kids to see Open Season at the cinema. It was really funny and I ended up laughing a bit too loud at a few scenes. If you have youg kids, I would recommend it. Jonathan and Genevieve loved it, as did Ann Marie. After the movies we went shopping for curtains. OH...MY...GOD what an adventure that turned out to be. The kids were going nuts. I think it was the twizzlers from the theatre. It turned them into wild and crazy beasts! We eventually had to abondon all hopes of buying curtains that day and headed for home.
I made dinner and got the kids ready for a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's house (my parents) since Ann Marie and I were going out to a party for my friend Kim...yeah...the Kanuck leaving for the U.K. for a year and a half! It was a fun time! I ended up chatting up a bunch of people and then played poker. I was doing pretty good until Ann Marie stepped in for a buddy of mine, Ninad, who had to leave a bit early. Then things started falling apart for me. I made it all the way to 3rd place until ANN MARIE took me out of the game with a flush against two pair! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! I was proud of the way she played. In the end, it was almost 3:30am so Ann Marie and Chris (the other player) decided to stop the game and divy up the pot! Well done Ann Marie...well done. I ain't going to blame having too much to drink on loosing. She got me fair and square. By the time we got to bed it was 4am and we had to be at my parents place for 10:30am. Let's say it was a REALLY slow start in the morning...
We ended up going to an all day breakfast with my parents and the kids which was enjoyable. I paid the tab as a thank you to my parents for watching the kids and then set off for my brother-in-laws place so Ann Marie could get some documents signed for her friend. That was an hour adventure. We headed for home and kicked around for a couple hours and then I took Jonathan out shopping for blinds again, and some parts to fix my car. Our mission was a success but resulted in me generating more work for myself today! When I get home I have blinds to put up! Well, at least that will get one more item crossed off the honey-do list...which is more self imposed than demanded by Ann Marie.
Well, that's the weekend in a nutshell! Wonder what next weekend will hold in store...before and after the Halloween party on Saturday night...PARTY TIME!!!...again...LOL

*Searching through the weekend's stack of mail* "SHIT! I didn't get a party invite. My social life is a disgrace!"
Hey Traci,
You can have a bit of my social life. Sometimes Ann Marie and I feel we are WAY too busy! And looking at your blog it seems you party plenty! Concerts, dinners, trips, visitors...frogs...LMAO!
