While it was wonderful to have a five day weekend, I must say, I was very, very lazy this weekend. I kind of felt like I was 70 or 80. I would say Dave acted oh, 60 or 70. I also did a lot of groaning everytime I had to move or get up thanks to my increasing belly size, which of course made me feel very old. Dave reminded me that we can partly blame our elderly behaviors on our dogs. The dogs are all in their late 60's and early 70's and they are such a bad example, sleeping 18-20 hours per day, moaning, growing grey beards, spying on the neighbors.
We did enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving at the Stireman parents, complete with fabulous family and fantastic food. Young and old people do your stereotypical Thanksgiving festivities, which means that so far, I can't count that as a "feeling young" activity.
Other than that, I cleaned about half of the house (young would have been to clean the whole house and do some yardwork,) shopped for about 2 hours total (youngens are much more hardcore, they wake up at 5 am and shop all day,) read a book, cooked a little, played the boardgame Upwords with Dave (feeling old,) watched a movie (at home, again, old) and lazed about. I went to bed around 10 or 10:30 each night (old.) We were invited to two different parties but because we aged ourselves about 40-50 additional years for the weekend, we simply were not up for these parties. We knew there would be too many hooligans out, stepping on old people's lawns and such.
Tonight we are going to our good friends Benanna's house for dinner, so that's not too old I suppose. Thanks Bennana for putting the spring back into our step. Hopefully we can start acting our age for the remainder of 2008.

These are your last days of freedom before 2 am feedings! I am going to have to start lacing your water with stimulants! Hahaha!
