This weekend was so much fun! Friday I was really stressed...due to the fact that I had almost a 2 hour commute home. Most of the time if you live in VA Beach and work in Norfolk.. you can expect at least an hour commute and 2 hours if it's Friday. I love my job! I love the people and the company..everything about it, except the commute! BUT its nothing I have any control over and when i've worked here for awhile I can transfer to a CHKD outpatient center that is closer to home. On the school front, I don't want to get too far behind on that either. Last spring when I started back it was wonderful and I made straight A's! I didn't want to get back into it until I figured out my schedule here and figured out traffic and stuff. You really have to plan for traffic or you'll be screwed. So, I plan on starting school again in the fall and taking the summer off. We have SOOO much going on this summer anyway. SO, needless to say Friday I was stressed and Lee and I went to have dinner and drinks and then we came home to watch a movie..where I passed out! Yes, that was my Friday!! haha!
Saturday we got up with the intention of doing some laundry and getting some stuff done. NOT the case! It was a GORGEOUS day...perfect! About 75 degress which here, with the breeze from the ocean..was perfect! We decided to head down to the beach only to find that there was an awesome car show going on! We walked up and down the boardwalk just looking at cool cars and people watching! Then, we headed over to the strip and grabbed a quick bite and then strolled back up the beach with our feetsies in the water! We did a LOT of walking but it was gorgeous and I got a lot of sun which I needed. After we spent a few hours at the beach we headed over to Ghent in Norfolk for some much needed touring around and then to best buy. YES, we now have EVERY single super nintendo game (YES SUPER NINTENDO) On our computer! So what did we do?? Yeah till all hours of the morning! Lee always wants me to play video games with him and I refuse to play his stupid games that he plays for hours on end on rare occasions (he's finally starting to grow out of it a bit!!) but I told him if he actually got a game that I enjoyed I would play him..and of course I whooped his butt at Mario Kart, Donkey Kong, and Super Mario. I'm a natural what can I say? We did for a moment pause and take a walk through the neighborhood to get some air and a little more exercise..it was much needed!
Sunday, we slept in a bit and got ready for the day. We headed to Norfolk for the Culinary expo! We had so much fun going around and sampling food from area vendors, restaurants, bakeries..etc! We even had to tickets to see Emeril! Yes, Emeril Lagasse! BAM! He was very entertaining. I have pictures that I will post once I find the camera..i saw it this morning and now its gone..of course! Anyone who religiously reads my blog knows that I'm a huge food network fan..and even though it was no Paula Deen or Giada or Rachael..it was still awesome! Sunday night we decided to wind down and FINALLY do our laundry and treat ourselves to a yummy dinner from Jason's Deli..(one of Lee's favorite places). There's nothing like perfect weather to make for an awesome weekend!! Have a great week, everyone! :)

Laughing out loud about the "growing out of the game" thing... bc Rob is addicted too.... but the way I FINALLY look at it is I am so blessed to have someone that THAT is there down fall... yah know? How many girls would KILL for there boyfriends to just stay home and play video games instead of going out drinking and clubbing and all that... PASS! :) Glad things are going well!
