A busy Saturday......

I have the whole weekend off work....that's right, the WHOLE weekend!!  It's the first time in while, though I'm not complaining because I love my job, but I'm happy to be able to do whatever I like, whenever I like.  So, to make my Saturday worthwhile, I wrote a list!  I know, totally typical but I wanted to make sure I got everything done.  Macy had a bye for softball and Honey was spending the morning diving at the coast so we had the morning to ourselves :)

The list!

First, a little sleep in.....NOT! Honey was up at 5am, clanging around before he left.  Mace slept through it but not me.  I dozed back off but was awoken by Mace reminding me that we were meant to go to some garage sales.  Alas, no sleep in.  Off we went.......we were lucky enough to get what we wanted this morning at the Epiphany Church Mart and the Hospice garage sale and all for bargain prices.  Honey would call it junk but we call it treasure!  And they will be put to good use but you're just going to have to wait to see what I do with them :)

Doilies, crystal bowls and a decanter.

After the garage sales, we went to the video (funny how we still call it the video shop even thought there are no videos there!) shop and got a few oldies but goodies and found out Ezra owes $16 in fines for a game he hired on my account.  Good one, Ez!  Next stop, the supermarket for some chicken so we can make sushi balls tomorrow and some grapes....I've been eating a lot of grapes lately, yummy. Then on to the Warehouse, where Macy bought the new One Direction (screammmmm) CD and we chose some Christmas decorations that will suit our 'theme' this year....once again, I'm going to keep you in suspense as to what the theme is, mwah ah ha. Oh and I bought a nice cushion :)

One Direction.....OMG!!

Gold glittery stars.

Right, supermarket, Warehouse done.  Car needs petrol, $20 in.  That won't last long but it will do today.  Home time...singing to the 1D CD, windows down, wind in my hair (lol).  Such a gorgeous day.

Beautiful sunny day :)

Once Mace and I got home, it was speed job time before we had lunch and before we could watch Eclipse (I've been promising her for ages) so washing hung out, dishes done, windows open, general tidy, clothes away in drawers and.....done.  Eclipse time :)

So far the list is going pretty well!  Honey came home from the beach with some crays, cooked them up (yuk) and then mowed the lawns.  I love the smell of cut grass in the summer - it brings back awesome childhood memories. And the yard always looks heaps better with trimmed grass.  Time for the next job, I had been putting it off for ages...loading books to sell on Trade Me.....in the end, it took 2 and a half hours!!!!!  I'm never doing that again...I will either give things away or throw them out!

Freshly cut grass.

A cold drink while I'm on the computer - sadly, it's not coke!

So by now it's almost 6 o'clock pm.....Honey has gone out so Mace and I decide we'll have Dominoes for tea!!!!  Yeah, Mr Wedge pizza, yummo.

Hello Mr Wedge, mmmmm.

A quick check of the list reveals I still have a few things to do.....clean the water filter, fix some tights and...shave my legs!!!!  I'd better go and do the legs....and no, you will not see a picture of those, lol.

It really has been a busy day, teamed with sunshine, shopping, music and gooood pizza.  Now we're all ready for Sunday....that reminds me...I need to write Macy's talk for Primary tomorrow :)

Have a great weekend
