Weekend Highlights

1. Hung out with a girlfriend on Friday night. Talked all night about nothing and everything. That's so therapeutic for me.

2. Saw a client in a nursing home who has deteriorated from a vibrant, active, outdoors-y, stubborn man last year, to a confused, agitated, sad man this year. Damn Alzheimer's.

3. Saw a client in the hospital who yelled at me for no reason. Then proceeded to loudly tell me how to pronounce her name for three minutes. After my evaluation with her, the nurse said, "How did it go?" I said, "Uh...great." She said, "At least she didn't bite you...". Good point.

4. Watched Pocahontus with my favorite girl all snuggled up on the couch.

5. Met and hired a babysitter a friend referred. She was great. As it turns out, she is a friend of my cousin, despite the fact that my cousin lives two hours away. That makes me love the sitter even more!

6. Watched Avatar in 3-D. Made me a little nauseated initially, but after a few minutes I was okay. BEST MOVIE EVER. Yay for date night!!!

7. Went to church with the family. I really like the guest minister who has been filling in...he seems all fire and brimstone, but then, is suprisingly not. I'd heard him speak before and was intimidated by his presentation, but now, I love it. He is surprisingly candid and humble. Every time I hear him speak I am moved to be a better me. Not a perfect me, just a better me.

8. Had a nice family dinner together on Sunday evening.

9. Went grocery shopping which was accomplished in under $100. How did THAT happen?

10. Husband cleaned a bunch in the house without any kind of prompting from me. How did THAT happen? LOL (j/k honey. He cleans up alot)

I know it is a thrilling life we lead!! Some jet off to Vegas, some are half drunk laying on a beach, but weekends like this are fine with me. In fact, I prefer them. :)
