You know exactly what we’ve done wrong and what we need to do...

Crazy weekend? Yupp, for some reason they never cease to leave! Not always a bad thing but very very tiring. Regardless, I have learned some new things this weekend:

1: Never EVER go to work with an empty tank of gas (leaving purse at home) expecting a check that you can cash nearby to fill up your tank. Chances are you'll have to run out of gas OR go in and get a different check that you can cash.

2: Never EVER go jogging with your mouth open when you can help it (which is not that often)... You never know what might happen, having a bee fly into your mouth and getting stung INSIDE the back of your throat is high on the list of risks you will be taking.

3: Never try and cash personal checks at Walmart when you are in a hurry. The lines are long, and once you get to the register you will find that they only cash payroll and government checks.

4: Never believe that families you babysit for will be home on time. When you are staring at the clock and it gets to be an hour past when they said they'd be home, and they haven't called, you know you shouldn't have been "watching the pot boil."

5:  Never try calling realtors on the weekend, they never pick up.

Those are some of the important things I have learned. Gotta love life experiences :D haha... However, through those things come some rewards as well. You find out you don't have to work Saturday evening after all so you do have enough time to go with your AMAZING sister in law to the ER. Oh, and you also don't have to work Monday because of Columbus Day! So you can spend Monday evening having a "dinner interview" with a family that lives only 25 minutes from you, and has a one year old cute baby girl. Saturday mornings are a great way to spend time with your roommate and sister grocery shopping. You may just stumble upon some funny looking gourds, or begin a new way to "go green" by starting to use those blue resuable bags!

Sarah, and I "planned" our meals for the week! Tacos are on the menu for this evening, and Tuesday evening we are going to make Ian's Potato Vegetable Soup ( The recipe & a photo can be found by clicking Here ). The rest of the week we are kind of in and out so nothing toooo big is planned. I did get some chicken to make chicken salad sandwiches which I have been craving for awhile now :D yea yea... I also got some brownie mix and andie's mint chips which brings me back to my stay in Arizona this past summer! I'll toss the mint chips on top of the brownies & it does make for a delicious snack for the week :)

Other then that it has been a relaxing weekend thus far! I got to read outside on the hammock in this glorious weather today :D I love it when its Fall & the sun is shining! Tomorrow is apple picking with Anna & co. so that should be great :D

I hope you all have a grand weekend!
