Top Five This For The Weekend

1. Funny Girl is flying in tonight from North Carolina. She is returning from working there training new people. I haven't seen her for a month and miss her terribly. I will be picking her up at the airport around 10:00 pm with a hug, smile and a huge pile of mail.

2. I am taking Devon and two of his friends to see Spider-Man 3 tonight. I have 6 free movie tickets so I am taking care of the tickets but the kids have to bring money for their snacks. You should have seen how quickly they ran to ask permission when I invited them. It was hilarious.

3. I am getting together tomorrow with two of my best friends, Anne & Funny Girl. This is the first time in months that we have gotten together just the three of us. Well, the kids will be there, but you know what I mean. Life has just gotten crazy, especially for Anne, and it is hard to get together.
I will be making pulled pork sandwiches which means that I have to defrost one of my Boston butt pork roasts today and toss it in the crock pot at ButtCrack AM tomorrow morning.

4. Mother's Day is on Sunday. I got my mom a $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com and am pretty sure that she will buy a book with it. We are both voracious readers. I asked her if she would rather have flowers or a gift certificate and she chose the latter. I might still send her flowers too.

5. I was invited over to a friends house to celebrate Mother's Day with them. Rico & Donnie are having their families over and wanted me to be there to celebrate too. I am so blessed to have friends that always include me on the holidays. It sucks being alone or not having lots of people around to celebrate stuff.

I'm going to see Spiderman at 2pm today. I bought a musical card for my mom and I bought her movie ticket. It's my half day today, so it'll be nice to leave early and check out the new movie theatre! Have a fun weekend!

And a pre-welcome back to Funny Girl!
