Today is the last day of the long weekend, and it has been a very good weekend! Saturday morning I picked up my brother and we headed to moms. Marc and I spent the night, it was great to see my mom and brothers :). Then we headed to see Marcs family on Sunday, because our niece was up!! It was so good to see her, I could hold her and play with her all day. She is absolutely adorable!
We were worried we wouldn't really get a chance to see her and spend some one on one time with her as some family members were coming over but we left my moms early and we had a couple of hours with her. Marc was able to read to her and give her a toy he got her to go with the book (paper bag princess). I am sad we are not able to see more of her for awhile but the few hours we had was really nice. Also seeing that she recognized us from Skype was a nice surprise :) Marc had a lot of fun with her, he even fed her some little tomato pieces. We both look forward to seeing her again!
Today (Monday) we are spending the day being lazy, we are BBQing our first steaks of the summer and watching some Boston Legal.
Nothing else has really happened the last few weeks, it has been quiet (I like it that way). It has been getting hot and humid though. I did give the dehumidifer a test today: Last summer I would do my hair (either curl it or straighten it) and not 5 minutes later it would be a ball of frizz because of the humidity, so I figured today I would see if I could straighten my hair and not sweat and have it frizz. Well, it stayed straight! It was hot in the room, the dehumidifer puts heat out but I can handle that. So we will see when it gets really humid to give it a good test but I think it will work. I miss having an air conditioner but I am not willing to pay for a portable one and we can't have one hanging out the window over cars (totally makes sense, and one of those cars is ours).
This week I will be heading out with a folder of my resumes looking for that summer job. I am not going to be too picky about where I work, it's just to get a little extra cash. I will also go shopping, yes that makes sense!! My mom gave me some spending money and there is a maxi dress I want to try out. Thanks mommy!!
Sounds like you had a nice day BBQing and what not! Did I understand correctly, you don't have an air conditioner? My husband would revolt without an air conditioner! Oh, and I know what you mean about your hair, it's quite humid in Central TX and the humidity makes my hair unmanageable. Where I grew up, it was quite dry, so I was unprepared to deal with it... 12 years later, I've given up on trying to deal. I'm just counting the days until I can move back tot he dry climate!
ReplyDeleteHaha nope, no air conditioner here! We do own one but it's at the in laws collecting dust as it does not quite fit in our windows :P When I moved to Montreal from the boonies I was not prepared for the level of humidity and smog, but I figure if I survived last years heat wave I can do it again....with lots of pina colada! :)
