We went to dinner tonight and then back home chillin....about to head off to bed.
We have to wake up early tomorrow in order to go to Nephew's first communion. (Hoping I don't burst into flames walking into church as DH always jokes...hasn't happened yet so I think you'll still hear from me now and then). Then the party at SIL afterward. Possibly get day-side drunk for the second week in a row.
Go to bed early and wake up at 4am for work on Sunday. Then mid day nap and picking brother up from airport at 9pm. Ugh.
