Usually the weekends are when I sleep until 12pm because, well, I can. But today my cat woke me up at 11 wondering why I was still sleeping and then my mom texted me at 11:15 so I bit the bullet and got up. I wasn't really able to fall back asleep anyway, so what could it hurt?
I got up, had breakfast for lunch, and decided I was just going to spend the extra time I had finishing my dishes that needed to be washed. See, I tried creating Tidy Tuesday, but it didn't go over so well. Anywho, I did most of the dishes (I have a few pots and a pan left over plus a few glasses) and decided to sweep my floor. My cats get litter EVERY.WHERE. so I did that. Then I decided to mop and after that was all done, I still had enough time to sit outside (in 90 degree weather) and plant my calla lilies.
Tomorrow, I'm going to church with my mom because she is singing and asked me to come. So I'll be awake, and I feel like, after we have lunch, I could still have enough time to start getting my porch organized. I'm hosting my first party - my grandma's birthday party - and that is where I have room to seat everyone.
So I am providing the cake and ice cream, plus the place, and I was thinking it'd be nice to just have some happy birthday plates and napkins plus some disposable forks/spoons. I really hate dishes. I also thought, because my brother doesn't really like cake and my boyfriend is on his P90X diet, that maybe I could make a little healthy snack, like a fruit bowl plus some extra frosting for dipping and some graham crackers as well. My family has this thing about making sandwich cookies out of graham crackers and frosting. I wanted to decorate the porch with a light bulb garland and put little flowers inside... But I have no little flowers :( OOH It might be cool to use those make-your-own-ornament bulbs and put some marbles in them. That'd be pretty! The only thing I need now is that double fan to pull the a/c to the porch.
