Lazy Weekend

So, I didn't do nearly as much as I had hoped this weekend, and I'm having mixed feelings about it. I am in the process of watching my 2nd movie of the weekend, neither being Christmas-themed. Hopefully that'll happen tomorrow night when Sean and I are both home :)

I was able to return some library stuff, but I didn't get to go in and get books for next week's theme. That's alright, I can do that on Wednesday hopefully while Sean's at work:)

I got to Penneys and got the beautiful coat that I was looking at yesterday! I also got a hat and earrings that I was looking at, since I was already there ;-) I used Sean's card, plus a coupon he got with it...amazing deal!! The traffic wasn't terrible, but you could tell it was a December Saturday. I also dropped off my ring again in order to have them make the sides even so my engagement ring would fit in it. Unfortunately that means not only parting with my ring again, but adding my engagement ring to the mix. My hands feel terribly bare, sooo....

I painted my fingernails. And now I remember why I don't do this: left-handed painting. I simply shake when I try to paint my right-hand nails. Ugh, at least I added a topcoat so it should last a few weeks, right? I never was that girly, so I'm trying to remember:) Advice??

I did make food and do the dishes, so I didn't entirely neglect my wife skills. Sean had coffee all weekend and even food to take with him to work! I also did the weekly/biweekly (still deciding that) grocery shopping so we have a variety in our meals :)

Wow, it's 11:30 already! I guess I should get to bed soon - tomorrow I'm going to push myself to wake up by 6:30ish instead of 7:30ish and see how my performance differs at work. The kids are making more decorations for the classroom - hopefully gingerbread house-style :D


....and unfortunately Bones Season 5 just popped up on my Netflix finally (I've been waiting for around 2 months). No early bedtime for Becca!

A day where I go on a rant..

Yep, definitely couldn't come up with a better title:)

Today I got up late, but had to get up because Sean needed a rebate filled out and posted by noon (he worked last night, he's not lazy!). I just went unshowered with my hair "au natural" into the busy post office. There was an incredibly sweet lady working in front of the PO counters directing customers to other venues for their specific service! I walked in and the line was near the PO boxes. I walked out and there was less than 8 people in line! Way to go lady, you made my day:)

Now I'm sitting here debating what to do next. My girly side says to go back to JcPenney with Sean's credit card (and permission:P) and get the peacoat I saw on sale last night before they run out. And maybe some Christmas bling for my ears...and an adorable hat. Okay I went there last night after picking up my ring that broke 2 weeks ago and documented a list of things I'd like to get. Sean's card gets me an extra 20% off, so I held off on my purchases last night. However, it is a Saturday in December, which automatically means crowds:-/

My wifey side says to 1) clean up the house (it's not that bad, but it's visible, thereby, bad) and go buy groceries for the week. I usually do that in order to have ingredients for some kind of nice dinner that Sean can take with him to work tonight. On the flip side, I can scrounge for things here and make something for him when he wakes up, then go while he's at work and I'm alone with nothing to do....

My teacher side says I should go to the Dollar Tree and get Holiday decorations!! Our party is in 2 weeks and the kids are starting to get excited. Last year my coteacher and I went to the DT together and got tons of things for the kids: a holiday bucket, candies, toys, erasers, stickers...just an awesome collection of holiday cheer:) This year, however, we have 22 kids. I'm thinking we're going to go with gift bags and a few less things, but we'll see! I also need to make a signup sheet for the parents to bring food to this party. Oh, and getting books for the kids for the next theme. And finding a picture of each child to put in some kind of picture frame for their parents' holiday gift :)

My lazy side says to watch movies and dig out the waffle maker to make waffles for myself and later Sean:)

What would you do??
