Working for the Weekend

This has been a GREAT weekend. I have not gone anywhere or done anything and I have loved every minute of it. I've realized that I'm going to have to start being a bit of a penny-pincher and will just have to stay at home more. I'm kind of okay with that though. My house needs my attention. Plus, I need to get some livin' out of this house I'm in since it's breaking me to live in it now-a-days.

Friday night I stayed at school until almost 7 and got a lot of work done. I've stayed late on Friday the past few weeks to avoid having to go to school on the weekend. It's been a smart move. I have felt more relaxed during the weekend because I'm not stressing about school so much. The rest of Friday night I relaxed at home with Daisy Mae. I watched Serendipity on TV--twice. The first showing of it ended and then it started over again, so I watched it for a second time. I know. I love that movie though and I own it. I don't know why I always do that...watch movies on TV that I already own. I went to bed at a decent hour and let the Golden Girls put me to sleep. Watching Sophia, Dorothy, Blanche, and Rose always makes for a good time.

Today (Saturday) I woke up super early. At 5:45 to be exact. I don't understand that at all. Actually, I had to pee reeeally bad, so that's the reason. I've been waking up in the night a lot lately to go. I never, ever have to get up to go during the night...so I think I've got a bit of a bladder infection starting. I can probably credit that due to the fact that I have not gone to the bathroom during the school day once in the 14 days that we have been back. Not so good for the old bladder. Was that too much information? I didn't think so. Anyways...I stayed in bed and watched the remake of the Annie movie on the Hallmark channel. All, I'm going to say is that I so like the original better. I can belt out Annie songs all day. She's the only little red head that I like and that's only because she had some pipes. I only made it through like half the movie, then got up to have some chocolate chip pancakes. I rarely eat pancakes and can't handle more than two, but for some reason they sounded really good. Plus, that's the only breakfast type food I had in my house.
I decided it was time to show my house a little lovin'. My poor house has been neglected so, so much lately. It was in need of a deep clean. I started my cleaning mission in my kitchen. I cleaned everything. Windows, switch plates, microwave, dusted the tops of the cabinets, EVERYTHING. It is now shining like the sun. I worked my way into my living room and tackled it too. I still need to make my way to the back of the house and clean it. It will come in time. Perhaps later this evening. I seriously do love to clean. It's the whole process of it. Seeing dirty things come clean. It's magical. I love being able to see the progress that has been made. While I was cleaning, I was a bit distracted by some of my favorite Lifetime movies. Late in the afternoon, Adam and Emily came over and we ate pizza. During the evening, I watched Emily and Abby at my house. We had fun hanging out together. To make my night complete, one of my favorite all time movies is on (Bring It On: All or Nothing).
Yeah, it's been a great weekend. Let's hope tomorrow is just as great.
