Happy Friday! We had a wintry sort of week, still have the cold temperatures, although no Polar Vortex, some snow, and lots of ice still on our driveway so everyone needs to be careful.
On Tuesday we went to see the Dog Man Movie with one of Q's friends. And we had to make a stop at McDonalds for supper first.
It was wine exchange time for me! No California reds for us this time. The Sauvignon Blanc is a class choice, and the other was a deliberately chosen Canadian wine.
I put up a few decorations for Valentine's Day. After our Christmas decorations go away our house is always a little bare, including the mantle. We probably need more than the little papier mâché snake that Q made for Lunar New Year.
Q requested a game after dinner on Wednesday and my stipulation was something that didn't require a lot of set up, so we played Uzzle. Usually I am good at this game, but E was the champion this time.
Meanwhile Dave was in Vegas for a work trip.
While Dave was away I got our electric blanket out and used it to preheat my bed, and then I would watch Netflix (the OJ Simpson series to be precise) under the warm blanket (before unplugging it to go to sleep). What a game changer! What habits do you have when your spouse is out of town?
I went out for Happy Hour with my colleagues last night at Blue Bovine. It was nice to get together to talk about non-work things and enjoy some yummy food and drinks.
Have a great weekend!
I’d love to go to a wine exchange—it sounds like so much fun! I also love your Valentine’s Day banner. I was in total awe of the amount of Valentine’s decor I saw in Target and Walmart. We don’t have that over here, and our homes are mostly bare all year, except for a bit of Easter decor and lots more for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOkay; that idea to preheat your bed with an electric blanket is genius! We have so much ice on our front walk that I just can't even do anything about it. I swear it's at least 3 inches thick despite pouring salt on it 3 days in row.
ReplyDeleteThat is a shame you still have the wintry weather. It's still cold here but no snow or ice and the sun has been shining more.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a good time seeing the movie and how lovely to play a game after dinner.
