I Thought I was on Vacation

I have been busy, busy, busy this last week, you'd think it was a full-time job almost.  I told myself I was going to just sit and do nothing last Friday and I really did, other than my trip to Home Depot for the paint (still super excited about that, but I have had to postpone any painting for now).  Here are my happenings since then:

* Saturday--I went shopping at the Park City outlets and ended up with some killer deals (that might just be its own post later) and then had an awesome time at a friend's game night

* Sunday--I finally got to sleep in a bit, prepared my Sunday school lesson, taught the lesson, had dinner at a friend's house with other friends, got some visiting teaching done, attended ward prayer, and went to another game night

* Monday--I drove to Kayesville with another friend, went hot tubbing and swimming with a few friends, went to a movie with more friends, got to visit with another friend who had just gotten back from a very long trip, watched someone get their hair dyed, then walked to go get some Slurpees (I had been wanting a slurpee for quite some time)

* Tuesday--I was going to go down to my classroom to organize two ginormous cupboards full of books, but I slept in and had another "appointment" later that day and didn't want to limit my time too much so I just hung around my house and cleaned up a bit.  I went to the zoo with another friend (gee, I sure do have a lot of awesome friends that like to play, awesome!).

* Wednesday--I finally got to go down to my classroom.   I probably spent close to three hours rearranging and throwing away stuff (I've been on a throw-away kick lately, it's very refreshing).  After I came home, I vacuumed and finally folded my pile of laundry.  That night I chatted with a friend as she made cookies

* Thursday (today)--My cousin, Pam, called me this morning asking if I'd come up to her house to help her get ready for carpet to be installed in her house tomorrow.  We spent the morning unloading bedrooms and moving large pieces of furniture (there were a few times where I thought a picture would be interesting as two tiny people were moving things much larger than themselves).  I'd say not to worry, that no one got hurt, except that I jab my elbow on a metal rod/shelf support thingy, but all is well, I didn't even need a bandaid.

This week has been pretty amazing and so full of wonderfulness that it almost feels as though I've been out of school much longer than a week.  So far, I think this has been one of the best summer vacations ever and I'm only a week into it!
