the long weekend is here!

May 22, 2010 by Wendy S

Everyone always talks about how they are looking forward to the long weekend so they can get a break from work and relax.

I really don’t see that happening around here.

Tomorrow morning, if it isn’t raining, we’ll be heading outside to mow the lawn, trim the edges and weed the garden.  But if it’s raining, we’ll be vacuuming, dusting and washing as much of the house as we can.  Inside and out there is always work to be done.

We will be taking a break when we wander down the street to our friend’s place for a BBQ and fire works.  Our friend works shifts, so tomorrow will be his Victoria Day fireworks celebration.  Works for me!

Sunday morning we’ll head to church and get rejuvinated for another week.  With the girls in Sunday School now, BigDaddy and I get to sit, relax and be refueled for about 40 minutes.  This this followed by coffee and conversation with friends.

BigDaddy will be heading out with the senior youth group for some horse back riding.  One of the youth leaders lives on a ranch with horses and she had kindly offered to have 8 kids over to ride.  These kids will have their own paparatzzi as BigDaddy catches it all on film (that phrase doesn’t really makes sense anymore in a digital age).

Sunday night will involve a nice family dinner and who knows what else.  Then there’s Monday.  Ah, yes.  A possible day of relaxation or maybe we’ll use some of our Lay’s Chip Trip points and do something fun!  Guess we’ll have to wait and see.

Hope all my Canadian readers enjoy their long weekends!!

(And don’t forget to sign up for your free Lay’s Chip Trips account with my bonus code and get 10 free points…that’s enough for several of the activities available)
