Rainy day weekend

Well isn't hasn't rained yet, but it sure looks like it wants to. This week went from 109 degrees down to mid 60s today. There was chance of an afternoon sprinkle, but it hasn't materialized yet. We got up "early" this morning (7:30 ish), got beautiful and went out to breakfast at our favorite place downtown, the Golden Waffle.
Some breakfast, coffee and morning paper are an excellent way to start a Saturday. After breakfast we ran over to Kohl's for some odds and ends and to use the two, $10 off of $20 coupons I had. A year and a half later, Chris finally ran out of k-cups for his Keurig coffee maker and Kohl's has the best selection of flavors at the best prices.

This afternoon I went to a Silpada party (silver jewelry) up in p-town at a co-worker's house. It was originally scheduled to be a pool party too, but something about chilly temps and impending sprinkles put a damper on those plans. Instead we stayed inside chatting, eating and trying on beautiful necklaces. Still a lot of fun. And now the countdown begins until my newest set of jewels shows up in my mailbox.

I have salmon steaks marinating in the fridge right now for some supper time grilling, but I'm not sure I'm going to make it since I'm about to crash into a nap any second. Apparently 7:30 am was a tad too early to be getting up this morning....zzzzzzz.

Everybody knows that people with toddlers can't/don't wear jewelry. It's science.
