Mood:  a-ok

It was a fairly quiet weekend which is just what I needed. I got up Saturday and cleaned the house never once getting out of my pj’s. Well that was until Lennie showed up to take me out to dinner. I had actually already eaten and wasn’t really in the mood to leave the house because it meant I had to put real clothes on. Lennie was suppose to help a friend with his AC. I assumed that they would hang out when they got done because the friend’s wife is in Ireland for a couple of weeks. So I decided I would try to finish off the party leftovers and watch a movie. Lennie showed up stating that his friend wasn’t ready for his help so they were going to wait till Sunday. He was hungry and wanted to go eat at this place called Ted's Montana Grill. This is not one of my favorite places to eat. The food can sometimes be very bland. I figured I would just get an appetizer. Well they only have 4 appetizers and none of them were appealing so I got soup and salad instead. The salad consisted of lettuce, tomatoes, and croutons. That’s it…no other veggies. The soup was New England clam chowder and was so thick that my spoon, when inserted in the center, stood straight up. It also has absolutely no taste.

Sunday morning we got up and Lennie headed over to his friend’s house. I finished up my laundry and then headed over to Lowes. I needed to get some planters for the jasmine I got at the housewarming. I also managed to pick up two more plants to try to hide the cord from the fountain. On the way home one of the plants fell over sending soil all over the car. So I spent most of the afternoon cleaning it up. Who knew so much dirt could come from such a little plant.  When I was finished I grabbed a shower, a glass of wine, and some candles and sat outside on the patio enjoying my new plants, fountain, and wireless speaker. At 9PM I went in to watch my new favorite show, Supernatural. I have just recently started watching it. I don’t know why I never gave this show a chance before. It is about these two hunky guys who hunt demons and ghosts. What could be better that that? Lennie said that he is almost positive that it isn’t the show’s content that I like but rather actor Jensen Ackles. *sighs blissfully* Maybe he is right.

The only downside of the weekend was the fact that Aunt Flo decided to make an appearance. I should have known…it was a full moon after all. So this morning I woke up extremely bloated, crampy, and tired. All I want to do is curl in my bed with Fenwick and sleep for a week.

Still trying to decide what to do for the 4^th. Hiking was mentioned as well as working on Lennie’s house. He is trying to get it ready to put on the market. Not really looking forward to doing manual labor on my day off so I am hoping to convince him to do something fun. . I think I have decided on the dinner menu though. How does cedar plank salmon with a Dijon, lemon, dill sauce, steamed green beans, roasted red potatoes and my famous Red, white and blueberry pie sound?
