"Again, with the boot thing."

Elijah's AAU basketball team is playing their first road tournament this weekend. Sadly, I can not go with them because they're leaving at noon tomorrow. And I have this perfect storm of a false deadline and an OCD boss and there's just no way in hell I'm getting out early. So I'm missing the first tournament. Which was the whole reason really that I even got my new camera.

Anyway, Chip's nephew & his girlfriend (the nephew's GF, not my husband's) are staying with us this week from NYC. So I won't be all alone. I'll make them some grits or something.

Some things I have to do. Some things I need to do. Some things I'm just thinking about maybe doing.

1. Go grocery shopping. Ride around and shop on the handicapped scooter thing.
2. Get my nails done (mani only).
3. Go see the 3D Monsters vs. Aliens movie. House is in it. He's the cockroach doctor.
4. Take some photos for a new blog idea I have.
5. Go to the Zoo if the weather is nice. Since I haven't been in years and I've never seen the Panda exhibit. Or the Northwest Passage exhibit. Although I just looked it up online and they rent wheelchairs for $8 or $22 for electic wheelchairs. So maybe not.
6. There are some pretty cool Earth Day events at Overton Park and Shelby Farms but again, with the boot thing. Oh. Nevermind. It's going to rain this weekend anyway.
7. Hang out at the book store. Which I love. But then I always spend too much money.

What would you do if you had the weekend to yourself?

Actually, I will be on my own Friday night ... I am going to sleep in the center of the bed with all the covers and the best pillows! And not get up until I WANT to!

I have a Saturday on my own and here's what I plan on doing: pedicure, shopping, garden stuff, make cookies, Wii Fit. I love having a day to do the things I like doing.

I would sleep. But you aren't me, so get the mani and go to the bookstore. Let other people do the grocery shopping.
