What a relaxing weekend we just had. Saturday we worked around the house I finished laundry and cleaned the house while Brian worked in the yard. The kids helped me a little but decided it was more fun helping daddy in the backyard. Then around noon I went to the gym by myself (I had a great workout) then went to Walmart and got some grocery shopping done(without kids). Our good friends the Palmer's came over for dinner and we all watched a little bit of the Olympics. Sunday we went to church and I felt like the speaker(the pastors brother) was speaking to Brian and I and we were the only people in the room. After church the kids told us what they had learned; Tyler learned that Jesus loves him and he got to be the shepherd while the other kids were his sheep and they all followed him around. After church we went to lunch and to check out a few of the classic cars since yesterday was the end of Hot August Nights, then had lunch at a new restaurant Manhattan deli. The food was alright and the service was awful I was really sad when I left because our server completely forgot about us. I was so upset when we left however I was not angry as one would have thought. I was sad, it is not very often that we go out to eat anymore (with rising food prices) so when I pay $65 for lunch I want good service or even OK service. It would have been nice to have katsup and drink refills or some extra napkins. The server did come and apologize so I can imagine how difficult that was for him. Everyone makes mistakes. Then when the manager came over to apologize he did not do anything to make things right. Just said sorry here is your $65 bill even though you only had 1 drink you are still going to pay $3 each for it. I have worked in many restaurants and I am the last person to complain but this was REALLY awful, I think they need to train their managers on customer service a little better. Next time I want a really good sandwich I am going to go to the Spicy Pickle. Well now that I got that out I feel alittle better. I just wish I still had my $65! However I was determined not to let that ruin my afternoon so we came home sat in the backyard and watched all 3 kids play in the yard while Brian and I played a game of Gin Rummy where I kicked his booty......AGAIN!!! Then we ate a light dinner and put the kids in bed. When they were finally all asleep I cuddled up with my hunny and we watched I am Legend; it was pretty good. I am thankful for our peaceful weekend because I think this might be the last one of the summer that we do not have plans for. So hopefully we will be able to squeeze in 1 more camping trip,but that will probably have to wait until after school starts. I will be taking 3 classes which is a lot when you have as many commitments as I do. Wish me luck!
