And the weekend has arrived

Another week is coming to an end, not that the weekend really means much to me anymore. The weekends for me are just when Cory is on days off and he's actually working nights this weekend. So, basically this weekend will involve a whole lot of nothing or well, snacks and TV I suppose.

This week was pretty uneventful for all. We went to Regina for the day this past Monday to do some Christmas shopping. We didn't actually decide whether we were going to go to Saskatoon or Regina until about 10 minutes before we got in the truck to leave. We had lunch at Chili's, which was yummy and then commenced our shopping. We went to Toys R Us first where we spent a good hour in the store deciding what would be good for Cameron for Christmas. When we finally decided, Cameron and I waited in the truck while Cory went back in to make the purchases. We also made a quick stop at Michael's and Walmart before moving on to Costco. I set a budget for what we could spend at Costco and we managed to get through the check-out with $4 to spare! That pretty much sums up our day in Regina and then we headed for Sturgis. As soon as we were outside of the city, Cameron informed us he was hungry so we stopped at A&W in Fort Qu'Appelle and got some supper for the road trip home.

Tuesday was pretty much a lazy day at home for the three of us. I did some laundry and Cory put up the Christmas lights on the house. He decided he would get it done before the weather is like -40. We were all pretty tired from our busy day in Regina so it was nice to just stay home and relax.

Cameron had nursery school on Wednesday and he enjoyed it very much. They made balloon people and I was smart enough to remember to take a picture of it as soon as we got home before it got destroyed. I was right to do this because the balloon didn't make it through the whole afternoon. He was also pretty excited about the cupcake he took home from nursery school and he gobbled it down with no trouble. On the way home from nursery school we made a detour and took Cameron to Preeceville for his H1N1 shot. He was a trooper and only said, "Ow" in a slight whisper when he was poked with the needle. We were also fortunate to not have to wait and we were in and out in less than 20 minutes total. Today I went for a short walk to get the mail...it's actually a pretty nice day here today. I also made a yummy pizza dip for lunch and then Cameron and I baked some brownies. I've been craving carrot cake and had planned to make a trip to the Co-Op today for a few ingredients but we decided we'll go to Yorkton tomorrow so I'll wait and do my carrot cake shopping there. That pretty much sums up our week so far. It will soon be time for me to start supper...spaghetti with meat sauce. Cory works tonight and I think I might watch a chick flick this evening because Friday night TV sucks.

Until next time...
