Labor Day weekend....yeah, I'm laboring!

Friday I made a couple of runs to Hobby Lobby. I love that store! I haven't been in quite a while so I really enjoyed myself. I went once by myself and once with Mimi. I bought some new Fall garland for my front door wreath and some Fall ribbon. Am going to TRY to redo the wreath this weekend. They had picture frames 50% off so bought three of those....one for the collage print that I had made for Sonny Bono and Mrs. Sonny Bono, one for an animal print that I've had for a million years that needed a frame and one for a snapshot of Little Buddy and Sonny Bono on the beach. Picked up a couple of little Fall things for Bud's secret pal. Am thinking I am liking them a lot so maybe I can be his secret pal and will get his other secret pal something else! Little Buddy is always asking "What's for supper?" so I picked up a little wooden sign that says: Dinner Choices (1) Take It or (2) Leave It! I showed it to him and he wasn't as impressed as I had thought he would be! When Mimi and I went out shopping, she also picked up some garland, ribbon, scarecrow to update her wreath and some frames. We checked out Dillard's for some Fall fragrance diffuser and reeds. Then went into Artsy Craftsy and they had a good sale going on. Found a 'pig chef' with little chalkboard that I have always loved! It was 50% off so it had to come home with me. I know that the pig's sign will be saying all kinds of things.....probably everything except for the dinner menu! It seems like everytime I go into the kitchen....his sign is saying something else! Rhino and Ms. Rhino came by and borrowed my jeep for the weekend. They headed down to Little Rock for the Razorback Game! We are keeping Olive so Allie will get her exercise this weekend! Olive still has a lot of puppy in her!

Little Buddy had a job interview at Pontiac Coffee House at 7 p.m. He was gone a long time. He came home and said that he thought that the interview went really well. About 15 minutes after he got home, they called to tell him that he got the job and started the next day! He was so excited! We were excited for him and very proud of him. He told the owners that he really appreciated them hiring him and it meant so much to him that they did hire him.

Saturday morning Bud, Little Buddy and I met Mimi and Poppy at Susan's for breakfast. Good as always. Then Bud, Little Buddy and I ran over to Target and Oops. Didn't find anything at Oops....that seems to be a hit and miss store and I missed this time. ; ) Little Buddy had to be at work at 4 p.m. and it was after 11 p.m. when he got home. He said there was a band there and it was a popular band so they had about 200 people there. He said that he was supposed to get off at 8 but they told him that he could stay if he wanted since they were so busy so he stayed. He was pretty tired when he got home.

I've been doing some heavy cleaning this weekend. Seems like I've been just hit and missing with it since we returned from vacation and it was time for some heavy cleaning. Have been cleaning ceiling fans, light bulbs, baseboards, blinds, etc. Trying to get as much done before the cardinal game comes on this afternoon. Actually it is almost time for it to start so I had better end this and root for my team! It was an awesome game last night. It was tied up and Albert came in to pinch hit the 10th inning and won it with a homerun! Doesn't get much better than that!

Sonny Bono and Mrs. Sonny Bono are in Texarkana this weekend at Mrs. Sonny Bono's dad and step-mom's home. I think that they were having a wedding reception for them......don't really know if it was Saturday or today but I'm sure that they had a lot of fun and good food. Will be anxious to talk to them and hear all about it!

xo,
Gigi
