The Weekend

Friday night we went with Jodi and Gary to a boat show that wasn’t.  Apparently, it was open from 10 AM – 5 PM (Friday and Saturday) and we tried to go around 7 PM.  We ended up circling town a few times trying to find a restaurant that didn’t have an enormous wait and ended up at Pizza Hut.

Of course, before heading home, we hit Walmart for some of our favorite pitas (Joseph’s) and to find some hummus (which I had heard was good for you, but haven’t been able to find at our local grocery store).  I got two flavors (Roasted Garlic and Roasted Red Peppers) and LOVED them both.  I ate them with baby carrots.  Do any of you have any other ideas for using/eating hummus?  Do you use it as a spread? In wraps?  Give me some ideas!!

Saturday morning I woke up and Dave told me to look out the window.  We had snow overnight!  Nice.  I’m ready for Spring.   Anyway, I opened up my blinds and got on my treadmill and watched it snow while I ran. 

We had a GREAT day of worship today… and Jodi and I hit up the movie theater too!  We saw…

It was cute… but not one I’ll be renting to watch a second time.   That Isla Fisher is adorable, though. I will say that I was impressed with Jodi, she stayed awake the ENTIRE time!!  I’m usually sitting in the theater next to a woman with her head tilted back and her mouth partially opened.

If she hadn’t done this when we were in our twenties, I’d think we’re getting old.  For years, we’ve pointed out little old ladies and say, “that’s us when we’re old”… you know the little ladies that are talking REAL loud in the movies or the ones who drive THROUGH a building because they hit the gas instead of the brakes.

Well, a week or so ago, it was my turn to drive to the gym and I pulled up to the building and turned off my windshield wipers and THOUGHT I had put the car in park.  I took my foot off the brake and started to get out of the car and realized the car was moving toward the building!!  After a good laugh, I pointed out to her that WE were getting old… and she was quick to tell me to speak for MYSELF!!

She was also with me when I decided to drive through a red light in our town.  In my defense, we only have two stoplights in our whole county – and at the time this one was new.  I looked both ways and no one was coming so I just started to go… and she yelled at me “It’s a red light!”  Oops!

I’m thinking… in the next few years, y’all may be seeing us old gals riding around town… but Jodi will be the one behind the wheel!

 

Tonight starts this week’s reality TV frenzy … Amazing Race.  I simply CANNOT wait for a 2-hour episode of my man, Jack Bauer, tomorrow night!!! I may lose a couple pounds during that episode alone!

Have a great week, y’all!
