Now that my friends have come and went, I can relax a little with the decorating
On Thursday night, I wasn't able to leave the office until 6:30 am
Scott and I got home, played a bit with our super hyper Layla, and then went to bed. We slept for 6 hours and got up at 12:30. We did get a lot done, but not enough. We just got home from shopping when my friend called and they were about 5 minutes away! As they were walking in the door I was rushing to get my hanging laundry out of the living room and put up my shower curtains and put food away! They jumped right in and helped. Scotts #1 and #2 (lol) hauled everything extra out into my storage shed on the deck so it was clean and clutter-free!
We had such a great weekend despite the rainy weather and record low temperatures! Our plans were all canceled but we went shopping and had some drinks and played games at home
They bought me a new game as a housewarming present called Partini which was pretty fun. Before they left, Cherelle also handed me a Christmas ornament she had picked up while shopping. It's some snowflakes with a poem about friendship, and it was really sweet! We are both Christmas nuts, so it didn't surprise me that it's still the middle of summer and I got a Christmas ornament lol!
Last night we got new doorknobs put on and some pictures hung, and then I had a bubble bath and we ate chips, drank pop, and watched HGTV and the National Geographic channel before going to bed. It was so nice to just relax and not worry about how fast things were getting done!
Oh yeah, and I moved at a good time. My old roommate called me yesterday to make sure I still had the spare key to their place (she hasn't come to get it yet). On Saturday night, her new roommate had left the house at 5, locked the door, came back at midnight, unlocked the door, and found the whole house messed up. Someone had broken in! A laptop, a desktop computer, some shoes, and jewelry were stolen. I couldn't believe it when she told me. That's the second robbery in a year, although the last one was just on the deck. I couldn't imagine if we still lived there and Layla was home. Now I'm more glad than ever that I moved into a condo. She said she feels so violated and is scared to stay there alone.
