Weekends are the pits (sub category: I was at least mildly productive this weekend....NOT)

Seriously, I thought that "growing up" and finally graduating College would give me these awesome treats that everyone calls weekends. But I can tell you that I put the "Weak" in weekend!

By the time we get to friday, Peter and I are so worn out that we go home, and sleep. Then we sleep until 8:00 or 9:00 on saturday, and sort of drag ass around all day being semi-productive. Then we turn in early and sleep until 8:00 or 9:00 again Sunday.

By Sunday, we have completely given up any hope that we are going to enjoy anything but naps on our time off. We have breakfast for lunch, putter around for a bit (typically leaving a bigger mess behind than our limited productivity would warrant) and then fall asleep. Usually we sleep to Junkyard Wars on TV, but yesterday it was the River Monsters maraton, so my dreams were punctuated by bizzarre fish encounters and trips.

Here is a list of how productive we were this weekend. I need to do this so I don't feel like such a loser (sadly Peter wins the productivity award...yay).

SATURDAY

1) Picked up boxes so that we can pack and be ready to move (and coincidentally made some new friends...woot)

2) cleaned the kitchen, sanitized jars for jam, made mirengue cookies

3) (Pete) cleaned up outside, and went to the dump

4) made dinner

SUNDAY

1) baked chocolate chip cookies...made a general mess in the kitchen

2) Used my Cricut and the Winter Woodlands Cartridge to re-vamp my easter tree

3) (Pete) Did taxes

4) Picked up straw for Sissy, and dropped it off at mom and dad's

5) Got some hay for our horses (though instead of unloading it, we parked it in the garage)

6) (Pete) helped mom catch the goat and brush his coat and clip his hooves

Well, I suppose that I don't feel any better about our productivity. Though Pete still wins. I was pretty much a lazy ass all weekend, and I would feel like crap about it, but I don't have the energy!
