Weekend On the Mountain

When I got the news this week that I wasn’t need on the tennis court (ahem, just because I’m 0 for 3 doesn’t mean they had to BENCH me, amiright?) I decided to head to Tennessee and get my hair cut. Yes, I live in Atlanta, but there is no better hairdresser anywhere than my niece-in-law Stephanie. She’s also much cheaper, but that’s beside the point.

We drove up Friday night, but Saturday was when all the action happened. First, my hair. I’m not going to lie- I look GOOD. While she was cutting and coloring my tresses, JD was upstairs with my nephew watching the Tennessee/Georgia game. I don’t really have much to say about that other than Georgia cheats. And I briefly considered divorce from my UGA graduate. The end.

Saturday evening we ate so much that I went to bed at 8 pm! Of course I woke up at 10:00 and lay in bed for hours but EARLY to bed is half of the healthy, wealthy, and wise promise so I’ve got that going for me.

We came home on Sunday and I was able to catch up on all my work. And by “work”, I mean “TV”. The premiers I watched:

Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, Once Upon A Time and Revenge.

As if that wasn’t enough, I’d heard that Outlander was good, so I watched the first free episode of that as well. When I tried to watch the second episode, it said I had to BUY it because we don’t subscribe. Somehow, maybe because I accidentally hit the BUY button over and over, I ended up adding Starz to my cable bill. Oh well. I might as well make lemonade out of lemons, amiright Kittens? So I watched another three episodes.

With all of the traveling and TV watching I barely had time to get all of my other things done – like make a flyer for my sister and her husband’s country club golf tournament, send my mom measurements for her fashion show, and give my brother all of the things my parents sent from the mountain. Face it – I’m the cog that keeps this family going.

Maybe this week, I’ll find some time to be the cog that keeps my COMPANY going.
