Putting on the "Breaks"

 This photo pretty much sums up my wild weekend.  

1. For the first time since pre-babies I slept past 10 a.m. on Saturday.
2. I went back to sleep at noon.
3. My "Words With Friends" friends should thank me since I played while under the influence of cold medication.  You're welcome.
4. I spent two full days in my bedroom.  It was kinda fun staying in bed with my computer, books, tv remote and the humidifier.  I caught up on all of my weekend daytime viewing.  Um, I'm good for a loonngg time.
5. HGTV and the DIY Network ended up keeping me company.  I still love Candace.  I still don't love Property Virgins.
6. I mustered enough energy to go to church and I was blessed by two friends.  One brought me some delicious pumpkin bars and another gave me a pumpkin candle.  Thank you, Angie and Erin.  You know me so well.
7.  Church and lunch out turned out to be too much so I spent the rest of the afternoon in bed.  Sometimes it's nice to have a good excuse reason to put myself in time-out quarantine.
8. I was looking through the pictures on my laptop and ran across this one from Labor Day:
Do you think this is what Apple marketing had in mind when they agreed to a contract with Walmart?  Not quite the streamlined look that I associate with Apple products.  Notice the silk flowers on top still have a hanging price tag.  Classy.
9. I was delighted by the comments and suggestions from my Kids in Church question from last week.  I am so blessed by you!
10. We've been in school for 10 weeks.  I'm ready for a little break.  I've been putting it off because everyone is going strong (except me) and I know that this is the time of year that we accomplish the most.  Yet, it's about time for a break.  Preferably one that doesn't include cold medication.

Poor you! When I saw you in church yesterday (sans pumpkin products, sorry) I would have never known how you'd spent your weekend! Glad you made it! Actually I did have pumpkin products when I saw you....Dunkin Donuts iced coffee with Pumpkin Spice swirl. Sadly, it was kind of gross. I guess I could have offered you a sip? But, again with the gross. Oh well.

I'm sorry you were (are) feeling sickly. I didn't make it to 10 weeks before my break...so good for you for pressing on!!

The Wal-Mart advertising...oh.my. 'Tacky' doesn't seem like a strong enough adjective, does it??

Feel better!! Praying for you.

I am hoping you are feeling better by now! I have gotten behind in blogland. I had to laugh at the Apple sign in Walmart...
