Dinner was with some friends that Randy used to work with. One of them is also my dearest friend and best friend from school. Randy didn't get to go wtih us, as he took the boys to the ranch his family has. Andrew hasn't been since he was an infant and Jake has never been. I've talked to them a couple of times and they are having a great time. We're always so busy with sports that we can't go, but I have a feeling that we'll be making more time in the future.
After dinner we went to a place to hear a couple of bands. I haven't been out that late in a long time. It turns out there was a lot of drama at my house, and I missed it. When I was about to leave the bar, I noticed I had 6 missed calls, and I had been regularly checking my phone. It turns out that the police had been chasing two suspects, and they ran out in the pasture near our house. My BIL heard police helicopters and thought they might be near my house so he went to investigate. He found the sheriff, a game warden and six police cars along with the helicopters around my house. When he couldn't get me to answer the house phone, the police decided that they should go in to the house to make sure everything was okay. (we leave the second garage door cracked a little for the cat.) The alarm was set, but they still checked everything out. By the time I got home, they had moved on to somewhere else looking for the men.
I was very careful, but the garage door down before I got out of the car, headed in to the house and re-set the alarm.
This morning I was up early to treat myself to a pedicure and ran work errands, and finished up a couple of things for myself. I spent some time at work, then got groceries and made it home to wash laundry and decorate a little.
It's been a pretty productive weekend, though I wish I could do more decorating. Maybe that's why it still doesn't seem like it's getting close to Christmas.

It's nice that you had a day or two to yourself. You are always on the go, I bet the downtime was just what the doctor ordered.
I am trying very hard to be nice but that just turned a page and I just told him so.
Somehow, they never stay nice no matter how nice they start out. 
. Have a great week!!!!
