Family Time Weekend Recap
Happy Monday all! I hope y'all aren't melting in the heat because it is MISERABLE! Today we are going to apparently break records from the heat and be at 100 with heat index way higher. Yay. This will be me for the next week: source We went to my second cousin's graduation party. I purposely wanted to arrive about 45 minutes later than the start time. You don't want to get wrangled into setting up, babysitting, etc and that happened to people arriving earlier from what I heard so smart call on my part. Also everyone is always chit chatting and we knew if there would be food it would be about the time they'd be eating...right again. We already ate so we were good to go and then shocked the sh*t out my family when we walked in. Final goal: ✔ The grad immediately popped up and came over to hug us and be a good hostess which was so cute. She's always been a very sweet kid but also a little badass. She was the only wrest...
You never cease to amaze me with the # of links you are able to find. I will be busy today reading through everything. Happy Friday!!
ReplyDeleteI am a wealth of useless knowledge! :-) Happy Aloha Friday!
DeleteI'll have to check these out over the weekend. Little guy has basketball Saturday and the usual weekend chores. Got to find something fun to do too.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the little guy and definitely find something fun to do! It's the weekend baby! Woot!
DeleteThat things not to say to dog lovers/owners applies well to anyone who has pets (and treats them as the family members they are, not just livestock). Except the "no dogs allowed" thing. To me that borders on the obsessive. If you can't go to someone's house sans dog you might need to figure out why you have to drag your dog everywhere with you, not why your friend doesn't want someone's dog in their house.
ReplyDeleteThe "no dog" thing also sounded a LOT like a whiney breeder complaining that they can't take their kid everywhere, which made me snicker. See! Pets and kids aren't that different!
For the record, I'm a hard core cat person and I don't allow dogs in my (and my cats') house. I don't care how "well behaved" they are, I don't want them in there disturbing my feline peace. I also don't like kids in my house (for the same reason!).
My BIL and SIL are "those" people that drag their dogs everywhere and think everyone should be okay with it. While we did treat our dog like our child, we didn't drag her everywhere and think everyone else should have to treat her like a human baby. We can't have cats in the house because the Mr is allergic but yeah, I don't really want people bringing their pets to my house without asking first and then we can politely decline. ;-)
DeleteI REALLY like the dog article. I wish I could find more hotels and restaurants that allowed pets!
ReplyDeleteI just read yesterday's blog. I loved it. (I had doctor appts. and shopping to do yesterday, I rarely miss a day of reading your blog.) I replied to what you wrote, because it touched me so much--it's like reading my own story. And after I got down commenting, I realized I felt motivated again. Who knows if it will last? But for now, this moment....I can beat down the cravings and temptations. Wanted to let you know, how much you inspire and motivate me, even when you struggle. Hang in there girl, I'm with you!!!
