A Full Weekend.

Yesterday after work I came home and took a nap. After the nap I needed to get some gas for the lawnmower and the dreaded first mowing of the lawn. The lawn mowed, I did a bit of trimming and then it was time for Supper. On the menu for the evening was a nice sirloin steak for Needles and New York strip for me on the grill, followed by grilled asparagus. Last year we didn't grill out once but this year we have already had hamburgers, salmon steaks, chicken breasts and steaks. I think we will need to do hot dogs very soon. After supper we went to the very busy Dairy Dee. We were in the drive up line for 20 to 25 minutes. Needles got a small strawberry cheesecake and pineapple twist cone and I got a large hot fudge sundae. We brought them home and sat on the back patio while we enjoyed our treats. I did manage to finish up a few small chores that I had been putting off. We finally went in around 9pm and decided to rent a movie. On tap was the new Sherlock Holmes movie with Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law. It was a good movie but sometimes you had to listen close as the British accents was hard to understand and follow. We finished up watching the movie around midnight and finally retired to bed around 1pm. This morning we enjoyed scrambled eggs and sweet & spicy sausage. After breakfast we started in doing some spring cleaning. We seem to have accumulated a lot of boxes over the winter and needed to do some clutter removal. We seemed to make some progress and get a few things straightened up. I assembled a wire shelf I bought for Needles at least 3 years ago and put it in the room for more off the floor storage. We boxed up some Xmas and Halloween items and took them out to the garage for storage. After lunch we went out to my Mom and Dads house and cleaned up some of the tree that had fallen with still much more to do. We are now at home watching some TV and rubbing some poor kitties that were neglected in our absence. Tomorrow will be Needles B'day and we are going to L's to celebrate that 37 years ago tomorrow a little girl was born that would make my life worth living. Happy Birthday Needles.
