It's been a busy week.  Tuesday night was spent at a very boring Town Hall meeting concerning an upcoming zoning event that is to be voted on regarding a development of our family business.  Not exactly a way that I enjoy spending my evening!! But I was asked by my husband to attend with him and after declining, he persisted by calling me from work asking again.  So, I went.  And it was boring.  Afterwards, past my bedtime, we went for pie at Bakers Square with another couple that we are friends with that was there, too.  The pie was delicious (bannana cream.)

Wednesday night we visited with my in-laws.  This is our custom every week - and it is something I always deem as time well spent.  I also had a hair appointment in the afternoon. The salon that I go to is anything but glamorous, but my hairdresser is good, so that's all that counts.  I actually like this place better than any ritzy place one could go to because it's very quiet.  There's often hardly anyone else there.  It's peaceful.

Thursday night we went out to dinner with business acquaintances that have become friends.  The food was good, but I was missing my kids and couldn't wait to get home.  Tonight, we have our family night - I am so looking forward to just hanging out in our family room.
