Great Start to a Bad Weekend

Friday night, I kicked off the weekend with my Shabby Soul friends. We met at Earlywine Park and enjoyed some sno cones, sugar cookies (Thanks Nicole!) and great book discussions. I had hoped to have The Time Traveler's Wife done before we met, but I didn't make it. I was 100 pages from the end..ugh! More on that later though.

After book club, a few of us went to see The Ugly Truth. This movie got horrible reviews, but I think when you go to see a Romantic Comedy and expect the best movie ever, you are expecting too much. I went into this movie expecting some laughs and a few ooey-gooey romantic moments and that is what I got. But man, the moments that made me laugh..really, really made me laugh. I had tears from laughing so hard. It's funny, but I won't need to watch this one over and over.


After the movie, I came home and feverishly finished reading The Time Traveler's Wife. This book is Ah-Maze-Zing! I cannot wait to see the movie in a few weeks. There isn't a lot I can say about the book that wouldn't give it away though. It was a raw emotional love story!

I finished reading around 1am and when I woke up Saturday morning I felt like 'poo'! I drove out to get the kids from my parent's house and then came home and have pratically slept the entire weekend. I took a sick today and have slept half of today already. It's a good thing I have a patient family and a good job!

I LOVED The Time Traveler's Wife. I read it a couple of years ago and am so looking forward to the movie. It is wonderful.

Hope you feel better! Rest as much as you can today and get over that bug quick!
