It's The Simple Things in Life We Forget

The weekend started off on a low note with me being sick and having to work through it. I finally gave up the ghost, went home, and slept through till it was time to get up and go back to work the next day (Saturday). Most of the time I can power through a headache but when I realized I felt better with my eyes closed I figured I needed to make that happen for a full 8 hours.

Saturday I worked and then went to a BBQ held by my dad's fraternity. I always enjoy their bbq's and Babygirl gets to run around with other kids. There's always someone new and interesting to meet there. I was talking to a young lady who has a natural style and the talk turned to Dominican stylists and how straight and bouncy they get your hair. Plus, who doesn't like a free meal?

I think the best part of Saturday was when I did NOTHING. BFF and I went to Outback (I DARE you to say something about how unhealthy it is) because we just knew we had to have some cheese fries. It was good to just sit and talk to my BFF about hair, the haps with our friends, work, and men (She told me to make like Keycia Cole and "Let It Go"). She's the closest I have to a sister and she treats me like it. Another reason it was so great to sit and talk is because I'm usually running around with Babygirl, or at work, or running errands. We went home and sat on the couch and watched Idylwild. Weird movie but I loved it. I need more weekends like this. I've vowed that at least 2x a month I'll have a weekend where I do only lowkey stuff.

Sunday was just fantastic! I pulled myself out of the bed, reluctantly, to go running. I'm glad I did. I'll probably go again tonight when I get off work. Then I got all glam and went to church. The Holy Spirit was definitely in that place. I couldn't fully concentrate because Babygirl was in the sanctuary with me so I don't remember everything about the message, but it was amazing. The music, the message, everything.

I know it's early to be thinking about it right now but I'm hoping this weekend is just as good as this past one.
