I hope everyone (in the US) enjoyed the holiday weekend and the extra day away from work. A quiet weekend was much needed around here so I didn't pack any big plans into the weekend like I tend to do. Lots of lounging, laundry, and food prepping happened at home along with some fun out with friends.
On Friday I got out of work a little early so K and I went for a quick happy hour and dinner at a restaurant close to home.
On Saturday I had a hairdresser appointment to redo my highlights. It was raining for most of the afternoon so I didn't bother to get it styled and looking fabulous so no photos to show for that. I ran through the rain to get some errands done and decided Saturday night was going to be another quiet one at home.
On Monday I met up with a friend and her mom to get our nails done. We had fun chitchatting and getting pampered at the salon and then headed over to Panera for some lunch.
After lunch I did some errands and then retired home to cap off the long weekend. K and I grilled some steaks for dinner and caught up on some TV watching. Needless to say I'm feeling refreshed for the week ahead and even better that it's a short one!

Sounds like such a nice, relaxing weekend! And yay for getting your hair done but boo for it being crappy weather when you were done. That always happens to me too. <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
ReplyDeleteRelaxing weekends are exactly what you need sometime when life has just been crazy! Hooray for getting errands done and getting a little pampering done too with your hair and nails! And ending the weekend with steaks on the grill sounds perfect to me! I hope your Tuesday is off to a great start!

ReplyDeleteI love those floats!! So fun! Sounds like it was a nice relaxing weekend. I love getting my hair done but I hate when it is raining when I go. I love a good blow out but when it rains forget it my hair just goes crazy.
