By the time Friday got here I had absolutely had it. Worked sucked last week, home life sucked last week, seems like everyone I talked to or everything I touched I messed it up or got talked to like crap. So after all the running of the kids on Friday evening I called a friend and asked her to go have a drink with me. Now, I am not much of a drinker but I do like some tequila every now and again. And Friday the tequila bottle was calling my name. She and I met at a local Mexican restaurant, which happens to be my favorite, and we had dinner and I had about 3 very strong Margarita's. My friend that works there came by the table and asked if I wanted another one and I told him YES and more tequila. So he obliged and brought me a strong one. By the third one I had a great buzz going and had to say no more. We sat there for a few more minutes then had to get out of all the smoke into fresh air. It felt great to get out of the house with a friend and didn't have to worry about the kids or anything else. I haven't gotten to do that in a long while.
Saturday my Mom and I got up and went to a bunch of estate sales. Boy did we find some great deals on some items and had a great time doing it.
I have spent all day today either doing laundry or baking. I have made white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and bourbon balls. I still have to dip the bourbon balls in the chocolate. I'm going to make some peanut butter balls and I want to make some divinity as well. This is the first Christmas that I have even wanted to make candies and cookies in a long time. I used to do it all the time but haven't had time in the last few years.
