I got lots of “mommy time”, which is unusual! Friday night I went to my friend’s Pampered Chef party. It was a lot of fun. The consultant made 30 minute chicken in the microwave, potatoes, 2 kinds of appetizers and chocolate cupcakes. I also had a glass of wine, which was needed after a long week. The consultant heard that I am a stay-at-home mom, so she gave me a DVD about becoming a consultant. I still haven’t watched it. It sounds nice, but I just don’t know if I could do the demos in front of people I don’t know. Out of all of the multi-level marketing schemes, Pampered Chef is one that I may consider though. They do have a lot of products that pretty much anyone can use, and the prices range from $1- $300. I’ll keep it on the back burner for now.

Saturday I got my hair cut, then we spent the rest of the day as a family. Sunday I got another free outing to the grocery store. Isn’t it sad when I consider a trip to the grocery store alone an “outing”!? Ah, the life of a mommy:-)

I just discovered today that certain family members are in town for a few days (they live semi-close to here) for a beach vacation and they never told us about it. Maybe I’m just being my paranoid self again, but I don’t think they wanted us to know. I’m not really sure what the deal is. Like I said, I could be paranoid.
