Tuesday Already!

What a weekend! Had a good one, but too short, and felt like crap the whole time.
The trip to and from Echuca on Saturday was a little too eventful. First of all we had reserved seats. I thought that meant you actually got a reserved seat, but that did not work out. The conductor ended up finding us all a place to sit. Then had a lovely time in Echuca. GM and I went down to the Murray River, and ate our lunch. Stayed for a while, had a think about where I want to scatter some of mom's ashes. That was a bit emotional, but it was lovely. Then had a slow walk, browsing as we went back to the station. I will try to add photos of the river tomorrow. The train ride home, GM almost got into an altercation w/ someone that was drinking on the train, and about to light up. That was not fun. Then we were told to move seats to our 'assigned' seats. On our way, there were police outside the train, and a handcuffed young man went for the cop, and was pushed up against the train to try and gain control of him. So there was a bit of action on the station, which held us up for at least 10 minutes, then we were told it didn't matter what seats we sat in. . . omg what a pain. But, I was exhausted and didn't feel good, so I was really ready to get home. When we did, got to watch a couple shows with GM. I Love our time together, and I love that he said my "mom would love it here", referring to the Murray River. I know she would!
Sunday I didn't want to get out of bed, I talked on the phone for ages which was lovely, then had enough time to shower and get ready to go to the bbq for GM's boss. That was a lovely 5 hours that flew by. The company was great, and they had cockatoos flying in and out of the backyard to three separate feeders. loved it! The gang is so nice, and I played with a couple gorgeous little girls, it was a lovely social time! Got home after 7:30pm, watched a show or two w/ GM & went to sleep.
Monday, I finally had time to do some laundry (three loads), sweep the slate (1/3rd of our house is slate), vacuum cobwebs, package all the meat we had gotten from the butcher so it could go in the freezer, make a cake for afternoon tea. Which worked out great, because my mil & I went to sil's house to watch an episode of CSI. I was able to take most of the cake, and not bring any of it home. Went next door for scones once we got back, and it was all good. Somewhere in there, I managed to call and wish my brother a Happy Birthday. I sang the whole song to his voicemail. Then called my dad, talked to him, my sis, my brother (birthday boy) wished them all well, then call Lori for an hour.
Okay, I now see why I am still tired, along with the only getting a few hours sleep. At 3:30am, I think it was, GM & I are asking why we are awake. I watched the clock un til after 4am, Then got up just after 5am and took my shower.What a blasted long night. Oh well, I am hoping for sleep tonight- cross my fingers & hope.
Have a sil & her husband over for dinner tomorrow night, a Dr's appointment on Thursday, and dinner at M & D's. I am so hoping Friday is quiet. Oh yeah, may have volleyball practice that night. Had volleyball last night, didn't do too bad, but would like to practice a little more. And maybe work out the coordination in the team. We will see how it goes.
Blah Blah Blah- I think lack of sleep makes me babble too! lol
Hope everyone is well!
