Nothingness is a cherished state

After reading Lauren's blog about her weekend and how nice it was....prompted me to relish in my own weekend of nothingness! Friday ended with Bill and I chowing down on our Friday night nacho night and a movie. Nachos - good as usual....movie: Stardust. Such a good fairytale.

Saturday morning we volunteered at the Rescue Greyhound Association's meet and greet. It was held at the Barnes and Noble on Park and Preston. The same volunteers show up at these events with not only the dogs up for adoption - but the owners own dogs as well. Of course we brought Kayla with us. We are starting to get to know some of the volunteers and having something in common (greyhounds) we get a lot of visiting in: (i.e. what color is your greyhound's poop? How do you deal with thunderphobia? To paint their toenails or not paint their toenails. LOL) At this meet and greet, the guy that sales t-shirts, collars, etc on-line is there...so we got Kayla a new collar. Of course....like any girl shopping for a new shirt....we had to ask all the owners - which color, which design, etc looked best on her. It was decided to get a purple and gold design outlined in black. Very pretty on her. She was such a good girl at the event and we adopted out 2 greyhounds (one large male to a family that already had 2 dauchshunds!!!!!!)

Today, after church, we had our grocery shopping date, watched the UT vs Kansas game, went to Target to get travel sized stuff and then to TJ Max for a couple of items. Yes, Bill survived TJ Max.....I tried to make it a quick trip and when we left - he let out a big exhale. I commented that he did very good while in there....and that if I was doing serious shopping - I would not bring him along! He sighed a thankful sigh.

Oh, I'm sorry - you ask, "Molly, why are buying travel sized stuff?" We are heading out on our cruise this Saturday - heading to the Yucatan Penn. (not sure I can correctly spell the whole word) and Cozumel. It's our first cruise and we are going with two other couples. Will post pictures upon our return (of course).

So - that is my nothingness weekend - and it was wonderful.
