Weekend update

Yesterday was a productive Saturday, today not such a productive Sunday. Nothing like sleeping until almost 10am. I can't remember the last time I did that and boy, was it nice.

Sally got back in the area yesterday just in time for her hair appointments, so she went straight to the salon and then from there, straight to Matt's. That was fine by us as we were busy doing our Saturday cleaning (by that I mean the cleaning we do on Saturdays when we are having people over...I don't want to give the wrong impression that Jack and I are diligent in cleaning our house on a regular basis!). We had invited our friends Deanna and Brad (that is them in the picture below) over for dinner sort of spur of the moment and so wanted to get the house presentable, though after they left, I realized the chair where Deanna was sitting had a giant clump of cat hair on it. Yikes. Nice. Anyway, we had a fun night and it was so good to catch up with them. We only get to see them on average once a year and when we do get together, we always wonder why we don't get together more often. Brad recently celebrated a big birthday and we wanted to celebrate that. On a sad note, Deanna lost her brother Mike to a brain tumor (same type as Tom's) in December and we also wanted to acknowledge that loss. The evening went by so fast. Sally got home around 10:30 and joined us for awhile. Deanna introduced Sally and me to a great iphone app called "Words with Friends". It is, in essence, Scrabble. You invite different friends to play a game against you. You can have several games going at once and you play the games at your leisure. So fun. I am a little sorry Deanna showed us this app because I have spent waaaay too much time on it today. But at least my mind is getting a little exercise :) Speaking of exercise, I might go out and take a little spin around the block. Or I might just walk to the refrigerator and have some leftovers.
