Weekend Continued


Saturday, or as I like to call it… sleep-most-of-the-day- day. One late wake up later I got down to the business of making the dress I planned to wear that night on our dinner cruise to celebrate a wonderful two years married. Sewing a dress sounds a lot more sew-tastic than it was. Granted I messed up about 6 times and had to redo redo redo. The dress started as an XL tee shirt and ended as a quite short dress. 

It took 5 times longer than thought, so I was sewing right down to the wire. Right around the time I was wrapping up in time to hit the showers hubs called from down the street with his friend wanting to show him our house. I had a mini tantrum on the phone about the state of the house and the fact that I will put on pants for no one. My outfit that day was hubs tee shirt and I wasn’t going to change that. Needless to say the friend did not come over. I apologized to hubs when he came in for being a bear and snapping and then hit the showers and dressed. 

Our cruise. Wonderful wonderful. The three hour dinner cruise took us all around the harbor and included a scrumptious dinner and dancing. I got filet mignon- my favorite food group ever- and crème brulee for dessert. The meal was really spaced out to allow time for dancing and sight seeing on the deck, 6:30 board, 7:00 appetizer, 7:30 salad, 8:15 dinner, 9:00 dessert, 10:00 disembark. Neither of us dance, so that portion of the evening was people watching and enjoying other people’s dancing. We took a predessert break and went up to the top deck to watch the cityscape and to be up top when we went under the bridge. By the time 10 rolled around I was stuffed and exhausted. A most wonderful second anniversary to us.

We headed home and then proceeded to watch not just the one Downton Abbey we had planned but all three. That kind of bedtime made it very likely we would miss church the next day. We did.
