It was not a very busy weekend.  That is nice sometimes, don’t you think?

Friday night, Eric and I watched TV and ate dinner and hung out.  I made him hot dogs wrapped in crescent rolls, and I had leftover ham & scalloped potatoes.  He was so excited at his “boy food” treat!  Oddly enough, we watched Good Eats and Alton Brown was talking about “man food” (*said in a gruff, manly voice*), so Eric just enjoyed the heck out of himself, I think.  Then I watched What Not to Wear and prepped the living room floor for carpet cleaning, which I did at 9:00 pm when WNtW ended.  Then we went to bed!

Saturday, Eric worked on the computer a lot. EDIT: I forgot to mention here that we also discovered that Eric’s debit card had been compromised. He couldn’t access our bank account online, so he called, and they had seen an unusual charge and locked the account down. The last time that card left our sight was when we ate at O’Charleys about 10 days ago. And somebody got $700 worth of stuff at a Macy’s in Maryland. But at least that was all they got, and Eric is being sent a new card asap!  END EDIT.  I read my friend’s dissertation, cleaned up the kitchen, exercised, talked to Karen, and generally goofed off.  In the afternoon, we stopped in at a party some friends were having and stayed for about an hour.  Then dinner (NOT a successful attempt ), and then we watched some more television.

Sunday was church.  It was one of our associate pastor’s last Sunday on staff, so he preached.  It was a very good sermon, and the special “good-bye” things were nice, too.  He and his wife are really fun people who laugh a lot and he is really good/bad with puns.  So the last thing in the service was a video of them over the last few years (they were on staff for almost 9), set to the Chris Rice song “Lemonade” which was absolutely appropriate.  It was a good service, but we’ll miss them TONS, so it was, of course, bittersweet.

After church, I made dinner (the gravy turned out horribly…it must not have been my weekend for cooking!), and then we both just goofed off all afternoon.  I did the dishes and read the newspaper.  I also taught myself to crochet in the afternoon/evening.  Then we watched some TV before heading to bed.  See…not that busy!

  1. We had an AmEx card stolen once. The thief only managed $1000+….the adjustor’s comment was that the thief must have been a rookie. THAT gets scary.

    My worst gravy ever was dorm gravy. We rolled it in a ball, threw it around the room, and finally threw it at cars passing under the dorm(a tunnel thing…). We missed…timing was off.

  2. Yeah, that is scary.  I hate that people are so dirty that they can’t work for their own things. Seriously, work at a job like the rest of us and buy your own things!

  4. I hate it when my attempts at cooking don’t turn out right…especially since I don’t cook that much these days!!

    Bad news about the debit card thing. Keep a close watch on it. One of the ladies I work with has had it happen three times now. I’m not sure how anyone can fix these matteres so they won’t happen again.
