So, as some of you may know if you follow me on Twitter, my exciting single girl Friday night was interrupted by a slight flooding situation. Yep, that's right, our downstairs bathroom and hallway flooded. Awesome. I spent my Friday night mopping up water and getting the dogs to stop playing in the water already! So, anyways, now my downstairs stinks and we've got to figure out how to take care of that. Yay me.
The husband took off for his crazy ass bike ride and got sick around mile 50 and wasn't able to finish the 100 miles. I think he made it to 80? Poor guy! He worked so hard and trained correctly. But, I'm glad he's OK, that's all that matters! Pushing to 100 would have been really, really dangerous since he was super dehydrated!
I had an awesome time with this awesome photographer and got to participate in a super amazing and unique photoshoot. And, spending time with my BFF is always a win in my book!
I yet again spent an insane amount of money at Pier 1 on candles, but, now my house smells all festive and fall-like. And, it's clean because I vacuumed twice in two days and swept and scrubbed like a madwoman. I love a clean house. I just hate cleaning.
On Saturday night, I got the wackado idea to watch Little Women. Because I am stupid. It has always been a really special movie to me; it was my mom and my movie. We always watched it together and especially during the holidays while making cookies. I bought the DVD last year and told myself that I would watch it over Christmas with my sisters in law. I didn't. I was too scared.
So, on Saturday, I finally started watching it. And, within two minutes, was in tears. It took me forever to watch as I could only watch it in short increments, but, as of yesterday afternoon, I finished it! It makes my heart hurt, but, it's such a wonderful movie (honestly, how could you not love Winona Ryder as Jo March and a young Christian Bale as Laurie? I mean really. It's fantasitcalness). And I can't wait to read the book to my daughter as my mom did with me. Sigh....
We had some friends over for dinner last night and I made a kick butt berry peach cobbler which I am abnormally proud of. My favorite dessert is cobbler, and I've been on the hunt for the perfect recipe for years--years I tell you! And, the recipe I used last night? So freakin' easy but so yum. ::pats self on the back::
And that brings us to today. Today when I've got a zillion things to do before I take off to Virginia for work this weekend and somehow pack, run, etc, etc. But, that's OK! Because ya know what? Next week is a three day weekend! Whoot! I'll be sleeping off my jet lag, but, that's besides the point.
How was your weekend? What did you do?

The scene where they scatter rose petals after the sister dies.....my heart aches!!! I loved watching that movie!
Girl I totally feel you! Our apartment smells horrible because we by chance alone, ventured into the unused spare room to find something and found that the upstairs neighbors AC unit had leaked into our closet and destroyed everything, including Spike's winter wardrobe and rare book collection! Ugh! No bueno!
Nurse the hubs back to health and he'll be back out there before you know it! Kudos to him for trying!
So sorry about your hubs...but glad he's feeling better!! And yikes about the flooding! What a night..ick!
Glad I'm not the only one who cries at Little Women! It's one of my fav movies!
Flood?! Sorry I missed all that drama on Twitter. I was such an old lady all weekend. Ryan and I spent our whole weekend replacing some of the interior doors in our house. Is that loser or what? He sawed, I chiseled, we both stained and varnished. I even bought a router. I'm such an adult I hate it. :) But those doors look awfully damn good. 3 down, only 17 more to go! FML.
