Jam Packed Weekend

In my post on Friday, I summarized my busy weekend plans. Well, for the most part, it was just the way I described except...for running errands on Friday after work. My husband calls me shortly before I'm headed out of the office and asks me where all I am going on my errands? So, when I tell him HL, Michael's, BBB and LnT - he says "Do you mind taking my mom along with you?" So, you have to know that I'm a planner and I don't like my plans to change. Before running my errands, I wanted to have my map planned out so I wasn't driving back and forth allover town. I had allowed myself a certain number of minutes in each store because I knew I still had to bake when I got home. After I reluctantly agreed to take my MIL with me, I should have just thrown that list away! My 10 minute trip into Michael's took 20; my 15 minute trip into LnT took 45; my 10 minute trip into BBB took 35 - you get my drift! Not to mention I had to drive over by HL to pick her up from my BIL's house, just to drive back over the Michael's and LnT where I was just at!!!!!!! Oh, well. I guess it is what it is. We finally finished our errands 3 hours later and I dropped her back of at my BIL's. Then, she wanted to chat. No way, I still had to go to the grocery store. Long story short, my plan was demolished. I finally got back home at 8:45pm. I immediately began baking; still had to pack for the weekend; had to get up early for the birthing class (which will be a whole other post in itself) and I think I crawled in bed at 1:30am. Needless to say, I started my weekend exhausted and I remained that way through the entire time. I pulled back into my driveway at 10:45 last night - and yep, still had to unload the car. Whoah! I never thought I would be wishing for Monday to arrive so I could go back to work. Wait, what did I just say? Am I going crazy? I don't think I really meant that. I don't like coming to work on Mondays :) I hope everyone had a great weekend and has a wonderful week!
