My weekend rocked!

I’m a few days behind on my blog posts, because my weekend was awesome (and I didn’t even have to wear the AWESOME panties to make it so).

I visited with my Aunty. I love visiting with her because there is no agenda, not stress… no 1,001 activities that we MUST pack into a day. It is nice and relaxing… as a weekend (or any day off) should be.

I got in a little later than I wanted because of traffic issues, but I made it there in one piece, so that is the important thing. We sat, had a drink & caught up on everything… including that she has decided to take early retirement. I’m excited for her! She’ll have time to do what she wants without having to worry about having to go back to work, or deal with cranky pants! (I think this celebration requires more than just a weekend, but we can plan for that).

Saturday morning we went to the beach and just hung out. I actually slept in until 10! That is not normal for me, but it was great.  I’m not so good at the just sitting… but I did pretty well. We did lunch at the Landing. That was quite yummy. We went to a Sandcastle Competition (more like Sands sculpture exhibit), and that was awesome. We might have gotten misplaced on the way back.

We had a nice evening when we got back, had some cocktails & chatted some more.

Sunday I didn’t sleep in much (I woke up at 6:45). By the time my aunty got up, I had read most of my book & drank four or more cups of coffee.  We went to Salem and just puttered around. That was fun. There wasn’t really much more than window shopping… but that was ok with me.

 We had lunch at a little sports bar. That was yummy too (I wish I could find places that were as yummy in CT).

I headed out about 4:45. I got into the hotel about 8:15. I kept getting detoured. Plus I would take a left when I should have taken a right, so yeah, some of it was me…. But I really hate trying to drive though Boston. It sucks… big time!
