A not so typical weekend

Here we sit, snug and warm, survivors of the "Snowmaggedon" of 2010.  I just got back from Wally World and picked up supplies for a weekend with our grandkids.  I bought a new game which we can also use for Game Night with the adults too.  Picked up the requisite ice cream and soda flavors which were on sale thank goodness!  Stouffer's Lasagna, garlic bread and salad for dinner.  I also got bread, eggs and sausage for French Toast tomorrow.  Michael and Donna might join us around noon time before they take Jake and Jessie home.

I love having the kids over.  I love the fact that they are comfortable enough to be with us, sometimes more than just overnight.  I am hoping we can take a week down the Jersey Shore with them and the rest of the family.  All depends on whether or not we can get a place for only a week!  Used to be what we paid for a month at the shore is what we pay now for 7 days!  But due to the recession, it may be easier to find a place for a short period of time.

So, I shoved the frozen dinner in the oven, placed my thoughts into cyber space and will take to my room to read until they arrive.  I deserve a wee bit of "me" time!
