It annoys me that by this time, there isn’t a snapshot app for the android. I can live without Instagram and Siri, but it makes me sad that I can’t show you funny (or very very terrible, as the case may be) drawings from DrawSomething or strange emails or texts. It’s probably good that I can’t show you when I whoop someone in WWF (no, I’m not going to show you when I get trounced) and Scramble W Friends would never be shown here because I’m TERRRRRRIBLE at it (but still playing). (Oh, and PS – trying to excel at DrawSomething with a broken phone screen is very difficult. I apologize in advance to my opponents for my crappy drawings. Also, I can’t draw).
I don’t know if I said it, but Henry broke my camera on Spencer’s birthday. I wanted to get it fixed (I just bought the darn thing a few months ago!) but it turns out it will cost more to fix than it cost to buy, so now I’m on a mission to get YET ANOTHER camera. I’ve spent the last 7 weeks taking photos and video only with my phone, and while it’s a decent camera there is no flash (which is why I bought the camera in the first place; the flash on the last one broke), it’s not a real camera. There are no artful pictures of my beautiful offspring. There are no pretty pictures of the jasmine that is blooming or the flowers I planted over the weekends.
Last weekend I had another FABULOUS weekend. We started out with a date night where we hit the food court at the mall and people-watched before seeing Hunger Games (I loved it). Saturday we wasted the bulk of the day before my neighbors came over bearing veggie lasagna and then we went to a carnival where my children were plied for the first time with cotton candy and funnel cake and Spencer got an armband and rode every ride he was tall enough to ride a couple times, fished for sharks as his one game he played and then went home exhausted.
Sunday we had lunch with Hubby’s family at the Blue Dog Bistro. We planned on going to Ella’s but there was a TWO HOUR WAIT so … uh, no. Then my dear friend Becky was in town from Delaware so we spent the day being kids and drinking wine and taking funny pictures with Flat Chris-y, a mask of her hubby I made for the occasion since he wouldn’t be here. Throw in slow-cooker pot roast with potatoes and carrots and you have one FANTASTIC weekend.
One so fantastic, in fact, that I felt sick on Monday, came home after 2 hours at work and slept all day. Now THAT is a good weekend.
On to the next one! So far this weekend I had book club Friday night (awesome) and Saturday we drove down to Port Charlotte to watch a spring training game between the Rays and the Red Sox. Today we plan on going baby clothes shopping for a wedding coming up and to Ikea for hanging pots for my yearly attempt at herb growing (I kill them every time, except basil).
Perhaps this week I'll do a photo-only post (Wordless Wednesday?) with the pictures that were supposed to be included in this post. But right now I think I need to investigate some breakfast.

Your weekends are always so much more exciting than mine...I guess that comes with temperatures above freezing!
