Weekend in Review

Jon and I had a nice weekend. 

Friday night, we went out for steak.  We went to Logan's and I was very pleased with my food.  It was nice to be able to take my time to get ready (hair and makeup) and then go out with my husband.

On Saturday, my friend Samantha had lunch and did a little shopping.  Then I had the honor of showing going with her to see her new place of employment.  She just got a youth services librarian postion at the Baker Branch!  Yay!

Jon and I bought pumpkins on Saturday night.  We did not get around to carving them.  I think we will wait and carve them on Friday night.  With our strange weather, the pumpkins tend to get moldy really fast.

Yesterday, I cleaned and organized my kitchen.  It looks so nice and I feel so good about getting it clean.

I have accumlated a great deal of plastic containers, glass jars and bottles that I just can't bring myself to throw away.  I know they have a potenital use.  I do not have a garden, so I cannot use them to can.  I learned that there is a recycling every 3rd Saturday for apartment dwellers, so I will bring them there.  I know that Jon is also happy about this discovery.

My next cleaning and organizing project will be the bathroom.  I am so tired of living in a mess!  We are so unorganized.  It is very discouraging to live in so much clutter.  By taking it one step at a time, we will get this accomplished. 

While cleaning, I finished listening to Home to Big Stone Gap.  I assume this is the conclusion to the series, but I am not sure.  I really loved the Big Stone Gap Series.  I just loved the characters and reading about an area that is close to where Jon grew up. 

I am going to attempt to start listening to the next One Book One Community (The Big Read) book, The Great Gatsby.  I got really frustrated with it, while trying to download it to my computer.  The tracks were not in order.  A bit of a headache.
