What was the best thing about your weekend?
jeez, everything! but for the most part i think it has to be that hubby is back from havasu. he went to visit his bro.
but instead of writing it down, let me show you pics instead...
welcome back hon!
good morning neighbors!
i am still trying to recover from a great weekend. i think i need to do a "cleansing" too because i went a little overboard celebrating t's bday, makes me feel better that i wasn't the only one. LOL!
i overslept today...could not sleep last night, i was tossing and turning and several times i woke up sweating like a pig. grrr! then i couldn't remember where i put some concert tickets i had recently purchased, so finally i got up and thankfully found the tickets.
hanging out at my bro's apartments on friday night was pretty cool. at times i felt a little out of place, i guess hanging out with several 21 year olds is not my thing anymore. *sigh* don't get me wrong there were peeps my age but when the real young ones got there we fled.
the laker game was pretty exciting and after the game pretty much everyone played rock band. sam and john did such a great john singing, total pros!
we had an awesome mother's day weeekend and i hope you guys did too. i know i'm a little late with this but i've been busy...
hubby and i had a really nice date on friday night. after dinner we had some drinks and watched the lakers lose, boo! afterwards we went to toluca lake to check out the classic cars. i was a fun night and i think we both needed a nice relaxing evening.
we spent most of saturday running around town with flat stanley and taking pics of him. we left the house at 8:30am and got home around 3pm. boy was i tired when we got home...i couldn't take a nap because i still had to run to the market and get some groceries plus i was making mother's day dinner.
since it was mexican's mother's day on saturday we took mom to dinner at her fave seafood place, pacificos in culver city. i think it's become our fave restaurant too! i had the best shrimp cocktail and everyone else had fish...duh.
good times!
first of all i want to wish all you mom's a happy mother's day. we are starting the celebration early...it's mexican mother's day tomorrow so we are taking mom out to dinner. we're taking her to have seafood because it's one of her favorite foods.
tonight hubby and i are going to dinner and hopefully drinks because i could really use a stiff one. ;-)) bahahahah. hopefully we will not be too tired to hang out and listen to some music. the place we are going to has live jazz so that will be fun.
tomorrow besides dinner with mom we are taking flat stanley to hollywood. i hope the pics come out good. i'm trying to come up with something creative and fun for my nephew. i don't want him to be disappointed.
hope all you moms have a wonderful mother's day!
thanks frank for treating us, we had a great time! go dodgers!!!
we had such a nice weekend. it was so nice hanging out with my bros and mom on saturday. we had breakfast @ mimi's then since my bros are batman freaks they were on the hunt for some figures. they finally found them in pomona. freaks! LOL!
i found some nice shoes at the nordstrom rack and little bro found several pairs of luky jeans and a hoodie. we stopped at virgin's to take a shortcut and we started messing around with the hats...eveyone said i looked good in this one...what do you think? i would never buy it. where am i gonna go with a hat like that? what am i justin timberlake or a member of the blues brothers?
NOT! ;-)
since we were going to bbq later at my house we stopped at costco, target, and finally the market for some groceries. hubby grilled some chicken and carne asada. i made cole slaw, dip, and mom made fried beans, delish. my bros got the beer, chips and italian sausage to grill.
i was pooped from all the running around but that's my fault from trying to do too much...um, i'm an old fart i guess?!
james and paulie showed up around 6pm and we all hung out, ate like pigs and drank like lushes. the de la hoya fight was boring but we had a great time chatting and making jokes.
paulie had a brilliant idea to try a shot he's had before...1/2 part lime juice and 1 part coffee liqueur. i guess it's supposed to coagulate in your mouth and that it does, almost like spoiled cottage cheese. it's so gross. i had to spit it out because i gagged. hubby and others were smart enough not to do it.
everyone left around midnight. i was soo tired so we cleaned up and off to bed. good thing i drank plenty of water otherwise i would have been hurting the next day.
good times!
i wish these allergies and infections i have would go away. we did the best of our weekend but were miserable yesterday. we didn't really celebrate easter as we planned to at our friends house because we didn't want to get anyone else sick. i don't think i'm contagious but hubby probably is. anyway after running an errand we went to eat fajitas for lunch/dinner. the food was delicious and for a late Easter dinner we had cereal.
we pretty much vegged out on friday night after having japanese food. i zoned out on the pc while hubby slept on the couch. on satuday afternoon i got a haircut, tried to get our blood tests done but after waiting over a 1/2 hour with some other peeps we realized they close on the weekend...ugh!
i had tickets to a concert i was taking my mom and aunt to on sat night at universal. the performer is a mexican singer that my aunts love. dinner at huasteca was pretty good except that our waitress rushed us hence the small tip. hubby gave me directions since i'm known to get lost and guess what? we got lost! we were going in circles for about half an hour and to make things worse when i called hubby all he could do was laugh at me! after i bit my tongue because i was afraid to get to the concert late and wanted directions, i hung up pist off! what's funny (now) is that i cannot figure out how i got lost and how i got so confused! after i got to the 101 i figured out where i was (finally) and thought, "i am such a moron!"
we got to our seats just in time and they were suhweet!
Show us something handmade that you love.
no not roxy, the blanket he's laying on my mom made for hubby one christmas but now it's become my blankie. i love it!
i'll be home for christmas but my family will not. they are in mexico for my cousin's wedding and will not be back until the end of the month. i was wondering how i was going to deal with them not being here this xmas but i'm sure i will manage. plus it's only this year right? i know lots of people don't have their families at all so i shouldn't be so selfish. but i am grateful for them.
hubby and i dropped them off last saturday morning and of course i had to capture the moment. by the time i was
saying my goodbyes i was balling...just like i thought.
i talked to my little bro this morning and he is having a blast, they're all having a great time. he says they walk everywhere and that the girls look like the actresses on the mexican soap operas. i told him to sneak one over in his suitcase...LMBO.
i'm happy that they're having a blast and even happier that mom is having fun.
i miss you guys!
my work day flew by today, like lightning. i was so busy but kept thinking about how fast time flies and how today is the last day of yet another month. i thought about slowing down and enjoy every day instead of just looking at things like a boring routine. i hate to rush, rush, rush.
i thought about people that are in my life and people that are not. i thought about the people that i should spend more quality time with and quit putting it off. and the people that are no longer in my life, let it be just that.
well today i took that first step to reconnect with someone very special to me and followed through. thanks to hubby for the extra push and also time that heals old wounds. frankly i thought enough is enough and decided to make that call and break the ice. i feel so much better now. i feel warm inside. it was really nice to get back to normal, whatever that is, it felt good. even if it was just a trip to target it felt right.
i've missed you mom.
