Weekends go to Fast

The weekends seem to fly anymore. They are never long enough to do everything that I have visions of doing.
We were lucky that the wet snow coming down Friday evening as I was coming home didn't last. It  was heavy, but was melting as quick as it hit because of the warmer temperatures that we had. Believe it or not it was in the 50's and they are predicting in the 60's tomorrow.
I told my hubby he has to hibernate on Thursday so he won't see his shadow.  It is his birthday. I don't know yet what we are going to do to celebrate. Probably go out for dinner providing he is up to it.
We will have to have a blueberry pie for dessert regardless of what we do. That is his favorite with ice cream for his special day.
The pinewood derby was fun to watch. They were having problems with their track not working right. We thought it was to be at 3 and ended up being at 5. It lasted probably a hour and a half. There were 15 little boys with their cars. It is a learning experience. It brought back memories of when our boys had their race cars. They didn't win other then the best of show. We will see if he stays in scouts or loses interest. You just have to let them try so they can find their own thing.
My youngest grandson made me a parrot from his art box. It is cute and he was going to build with his new Lego set. His daddy was fixing my tail light for me. I had a bulb out. It is so nice when I can just call and ask if he will do it for me. I had the bulb because one of the guys I worked with fixed it the last time so I wouldn't get stopped.
Our oldest has found him an apartment and looking forward to moving. It comes with the stove, refrigerator, and microwave. It is a gated apartment complex.  He says it is about 25 minutes to the office. He was running around in shorts yesterday. He is enjoying what he is doing because he is working.
Well I need to get a couple of other things done. Have a great week.
