Week In Review

Well, here is Sunday ( a new week ) so I'll just review the week past. 
Maybe, then, I can keep better tabs on my blogging venture LOL!!


It was a busy week - connecting with old friends and catching up.  I visited with an old roommate and her hubbie one evening and that was a visit well worth the time.  I chatted with my old buddy from the beginning of my embarkment on the journey of 'marriage'.  She moved about 19 years ago to AZ and I love catching up with her - her life is busy with twists and turns as always, and I am always amazed at her stamina in going with the flow of life.  I also ran into a friend who I mainly came to know through the wrestling program back in the days when my son wrestled, at of all places, the gas station!!  We both had places we had to be, so it was a quick hug and catch up on how many grandchildren we have, and a quick catch up on Everybody doing well? question and off we went!!
Then to wrap it all up, I ran into a former 'dance Mom' from the days of my daughter's dancing days at Stage Door!!  We did recognize each other and had a great catch up conversation.  Where did I have this chance meeting?  At the Parochial League Tournament of all places.  Her grandson is on my grandson's team at St Stephens.  At that same tournament, I caught up with another family that I spent many hours of wrestling hours together with - we enjoy the bleachers once again, only with grandson's in the program now.  Brought up a lot of "remember when" conversation and was fun to reminisce.


I did have a run to Maple Grove shopping area with my daughter, which included a lunch at Red Lobster, and of course, our shared volunteer duty with the salad bar at Epiphany School and lunch at Sammy's Pizzarea for brunch (yummy).  We had the great news of Luke's (grandson)  notification that he will be inducted into the National Honor Society :-)  VERY EXCITING.


And I must expound on the wrestling tournament.... Landon (3rd grade)  took 2nd place in his weight class - only taking a loss to a seventh grader.  I am so proud of him and so are his dad and grandpa :-)


Another BIG achievement of the week was my being able to send off the tax information to the tax man!!  Anybody that knows me, knows how much I detest the job of getting all the info gathered and entered for the accountant.  Next will come the worst part of it all  - making out checks for $$$$$ made out to the appropriate govt receivers.  blah


Well, if there were any other great events, they escape me for the moment, so I will bring this to a close.  I'm going to enjoy my cup of frothed caffee now!!
