Default What is everyone up to?

How was your iNSD? What are you up to in general?

I actually spend the weekend visiting my sister who is on bedrest (she is pregnant) and I went to a friend's baby shower. It was a fun weekend and I was able to get some time with out the kids and husband.

I only did a little iNSD shopping Thurs/Fri.

Sounds like a lovely weekend Kim!

Having a delightful long weekend here too: I did a bit of iNSD shopping, some scrapping and a bit of reading, went for a long walk yesterday with my eldest DD and our puppy while the small girl and her Dad rode their bikes (my butt killed me after the last long ride we did so I elected to walk the dog this time haha). Oh and I'm off to the movies in an hour to see The Exotic Marigold Hotel with some girl friends which should be fun

So yes having a lovely weekend

How's everyone else's weekend?

Sounds like you both had great weekends! I spent much of the weekend glued to my computer, watching the sales roll in here at PBP (and answering a few minor support tickets), but hey, I'm not going to complain! We had a fabulous iNSD sale here at PBP and the sales volume reflected that!

Yesterday was nice and relaxing - went to church, came home and HAD A NAP (lol, can you tell I'm excited about that? I don't get a nap often, and I was tired yesterday). I made a yummy asian dinner for hubby and I and then we went to visit my dad at the care center he lives in. It was a gorgeous day!

I did just a little bit of iNSD shopping, but didn't get around to using anything I bought yet. I know...no shocker there!

So...what did the rest of you do this weekend?

I went to that movie yesterday too Amanda.
What did you think of it??? I thought it was fab myself. But then again I don't see many movies at all.

Other than that I just scrapped all weekend (I completed 24 layouts for the week and uploaded them over the weekend ) and did very little iNSD shopping at all.

Glad you all had a good weekend.

DH went to visit his Mum over the weekend, he took our dog with him so they could have long walks on the beach, I stayed at home, and took advantage of some 'me' time! by picking up some iNSD bargains and playing around on the computer!

I thought it was fabulous too! I laughed so hard in some places I was worried I would annoy the oldies in front of us (I'm sure one of them was muttering about those darn whipper snappers) ... it was a great movie and it was delightfully bitter sweet!

Amanda, you should be a movie & book reviewer in your spare time (after you meet your PBP CT requirements, of course *grin*). I just love reading your descriptions. I couldn't have pulled the term "delightfully bitter sweet" out of the air to describe that....love it! I need to go see that movie, too!

lol funny you should say that Faye - I was asked recently to review a book that was in my wish list at Goodreads (my fav site for books) - its a pretty sweet gig, the author sent me the book for free and I give her an honest review - thank heavens I liked the book though as I don't think I could comfortably give a bad review if I tried

That seems like a perfect fit for you, Amanda. However, if the book is awful, I'd want you to tell me in your review, even if it's painful for you

24 layouts????? Girl, you are indeed a scrappin' machine!

I bought a few things over iNSD, but not much. I've had a pinched nerve in my neck so I've had a hard time sitting at my computer because I feel like my head weights 100 pounds. The good part of that was, I didn't sit and spend much money. The bad side is... I didn't get anything productive done either.

Did you all find lots of fun goodies? Did you participate in any fun activities?
