This Labor Day weekend was nice. I didn't do much, which is exactly what I wanted to do. The weekend started Friday night with a trip to Stray Rescue. It was pouring torrential rains, but I remember the girl from orientation saying that when it rains, volunteers don't come. So while I was thinking of many reasons not to go, I talked myself into it. Im so glad I did! I had a great time. Everyone was very nice and so thankful I showed up to help. I only walked two dogs because it started getting scary out there with the wind and everything. I also accidentally saw a very injured and abused dog just out of surgery and I broke down. Started crying right then and there. So between that and the severe weather I decided to go fold some laundry instead. They have TONS since they replace the towels and linens daily. So I folded a tableful of linens and met a very nice special needs man. We had some great conversation. I love meeting people and hearing their stories. I'm not sure if I will be back this week because I am dog sitting! Maybe Saturday or Sunday I'll make it in.
Here's the little guy we are dog sitting!
I think he's really enjoying our house and backyard.
And of course, I have to post a picture of Cocoa too. Duh.
This is her on Sunday morning being all cuddly.
Sunday evening my parents came up before they left of their trip to VEGAS (jealous) and we went out to dinner and then watched Tower Heist. It was good to get to see them. We cleaned the house, which already needs cleaning again haha.
Monday, Jessica and I went shopping! I got a few shirts and some heels. We ate at a place called "Nacho Mamas." Pretty good! When we returned I made some homemade bread. Well, the breakmaker actually made it, but I put the ingredients in! My mom brought it up for me to borrow. The bread is delicious and much cheaper than buying it. I can't wait to try different variations.
Other than that it was a pretty stress-free weekend. I love having a nice weekend without much going on sometimes, especially since my next few weekends are booked up.
