Labor Day Weekend

Some ventured out into the wild blue yonder: sleeping in tents, counting the stars, fishing in the lake, gathering around the campfire at dusk. Others enjoyed a delicious barbecued steak and corn on the cob fresh off the grill with friends and family. Others went out to eat a yummy meal and caught a matinee at the movies, with popcorn and soda and jujubees. Me? I stayed home. In my pajamas. All day. I watched about a zillions shows on the Food Network and then did some baking (of course!) Don't get me wrong, it was a great weekend! I did exactly what I wanted to do: NOTHING. My sister Liz and her family are staying with us for a few weeks while their new house is getting ready so we always have fun when we're together. We could just sit on the couch, eating ice cream, and talk and it would be fun. We always end up laughing about something - even though we both could cry too. This Labor Day weekend didn't fly by, nor did it lag. It just was. And it was exactly what I needed!
