Lazy Girl Weekend...Oh So Glorious

I've never wanted a weekend so badly in my life after a week like this! This was definitely one of those weeks where I questioned my ability as a teacher. It's amazing how much children can hurt your confidence and drag you to the ground. They just wore my butt and my mind out this week! Much needed long weekend.

To be a lazy lady? Or not to be a lazy lady? That is the question:
Well, that's an easy one. I chose to be a super lazy lady all night last night and most of today. It has been fantastic! I got off work at 6:00 last night, and I headed to McAlister's where I picked up a chicken caesar salad, a free Heath bar cookie (thank you, coupon!) and a Diet Dr. Pepper. It tasted soooo good on my lazy night. I headed home as fast as I could, kissed my puppy (who was perfect yesterday out of her cage!), sped to my bedroom to change into comfies, and ate my yummorific dinner. And then this...this is what I did all night...
I wore my jammies and my robe and my house shoes and wrapped myself up in my t-shirt blanket and watched Netflix shoes ALL. NIGHT. Fan-stinkin'-tastic! I pondered making a girls night out of last night, because Jamie was out of town on business, but then I thought...I really NEED this lazy girl night all to myself! So, ladies...I'm sorry I didn't include you. But I wanted to hang out with me, myself, and I. Oh. And Leia. All that to say, it was perfect! I love lazy days!

Another Lazy Day:
Today, I woke up around 7:00 (because I went to bed around 9:00) and Leia and I watched TV in bed for about an hour. Then I made some breakfast including, orange spice hot tea, an English muffin with Nutella, and a clementine. We meandered to the couch where we stayed til 10:30. I loved my life today. Thank goodness Claire invited me to the gym or else I'd stay on my butt all day :) So we worked out. I came home and did a work out video. Took Leia to get a mani and pedi (nails clipped), went on a walk, took Leia on a walk, finally showered, cleaned the carpets, did 3 loads of laundry, vacuumed, made chicken noodle soup, baked punkin' bread, and painted my toes. Top night!

Leia enjoys licking up the shower after I get out...weirdy:
She also likes to sit on the comforter when I'm making the bed:
And I pained my toes red. I LOVE red toes!

Look who loves sitting on my lap while mama takes pictures of her feet:
Gigantorm Punkin' Bread:
So, I got this recipe from a family friend of my in-laws and wooo weee! I think I shoulda made this in 2 batches...this bread is growing and growing and growing! My house smells delicious, though! And I KNOW it'll taste good :)

What have you done this weekend? Have you been lazy like me? Or busy like my worker-bee husband? Hopefully you've rewarded yourself a few hours of laziness and relaxation after a busy week. I needed a weekend like this one. I needed peace and quiet. I needed to relax and chill after this crazy week. Jamie should be home any minute, though and I can hardly wait to see him!

God bless, my sweet friends! Have a restful evening!
