A little business

Mike had a good time on his business trip to Tennessee.  I think it was exciting to get assigned to a start-up and he found it really interesting.  Of course, going out to eat on the company is always a plus.  Friday there were tornado warnings all over the side of the state he was in, and tornadoes were sighted around 50 miles to the south and north of where he was staying. :( It was the first time he has been away since we got married, and I really missed him!  I had such grand plans to accomplish so much with all that time to myself, but somehow I managed to watch a lot of dumb TV (I'm sort of fascinated by DANCE MOMS - you can't understand unless you see it).

We housesat for Mom and Dad overnight Saturday while they went to the Poconos to help Nana.  We just lounged around (Mike was tired from his trip) and we got hooked on a marathon of Full Metal Jousting - Yes, full-grown men in actual armor on huge horses breaking lances and unhorsing each other.  We also played  Trivial Pursuit which I thoroughly enjoyed!  Mike did a little maintenance on his car Sunday and tried chopping some wood (figures the ax would break).

Mike got summoned for jury duty next month, but it turns out he doesn't have to go.  Which is great, because it was right when we were planning to go to NC.  I finally got myself to the eye doctor--I think we're overdue for every kind of doctor you can think of.  Also, I made boxed brownies which are delicious.  I have no idea what we're doing this weekend.
