I had a wonderful weekend...my mother stayed over on Saturday night and watched the kids while my husband and I had a lovely date night. We had dinner at Chili's, which isn't usual for us, but they closed our favorite steak place, Lone Star, due to the recession. So we opted to try something close and out of the ordinary for us. I must say that it was some of the best ribs that I have had in quite some time. After the dinner and dessert we headed to our local casino to play some $2 black jack. I'm not a huge fan of gambling, but I knew my hubby would enjoy it, and heck, we might win some money. Sad to say, that after three hours, my husband and I had lost $60, I decided to call it quits. My husband always wins when I'm not around, I think I'm bad luck or something. The next day I went to Kohl's with my mom and daughter and shopped for winter clothes and boots for school. I must say that the $10 Kohl's Cash for every $50 that you spend is quite the draw for a recessionista like myself. Then of course there was the birthday party that we attended for my daughter's school friend, because let's face it, my husband and I need to make some adult friend's in the neighborhood. I can do without the cake, but having an adult conversation outside of talking to my husband every night is nice. After that it was home to do homework with "the girl" and cartoons with "the boy" and get ready for another glorious week at work. All in all, I'd say that my weekend was rather enjoyable. I get to work this morning, happy that I planned ahead, and left a TV dinner in the freezer for lunch so that I wouldn't have to leave work. I go to get ice for my sweet tea and discover that someone has stolen my lunch, and left no note for ridicule and persecution. I tell you, what a way to ruin my morning. Jewel of the story...even though you had a great weekend, doesn't mean someone wont find a way to ruin your week.
