The Weekend. Jeez. It takes so long to get here and leaves quickly thereafter! Here's what we were up to the past two days:
* Thursday night I fell asleep after school, while Phil stayed to play basketball against the high-schoolers. I did my best to revive myself for a much anticipated night of "Survivor", but after spilling one tea and being too tired to drink a second, I decided to call it a day. Phil stayed strong and came to bed after the show!
* Friday morning we woke up and headed straight for the mall. Being the holy day, Friday mornings are the best time to get errands out of the way. After people-watching with "wake-up" lattes at Starbucks, we did a big shop at Carrefour. Our purchases included cleaning supplies, groceries, a kettle for my classroom, desk organizers for home, and other household items. We also picked up some fancy decor from Pottery Barn and Zara Home, which has made the apartment look more cozy and welcoming. Phil spoiled me with a new jewelery box too....and surprised me with a pink elephant notebook!
* As soon as we returned from The Avenues, Phil went to play some pick-up basketball , while I had fun arranging the items we brought home from our shopping trip! It wasn't all fun and games, though, as I had a 15km run to fit in before heading out for dinner at a colleague's house. We quickly showered when Phil got home and were picked up shortly after for some ordered-in Asian cuisine with friends. (Sidenote: During the drive, Phil noticed that Kuwait has a "TACO TIME" near the house. Apparently T.B. has one too. EWWWWW.)
* This morning we opted out of a staff breakfast at the Hilton, and had our own french toast feast at the "Philton". Since then, we have been busy doing laundry, schoolwork, baking, and cleaning.....which is somewhat a lie.....because I also went for a mani/pedi with the better half of The Brits. Tonight we hope to catch some tv together before going to bed early in preparation for our dreadful 5:30 a.m. wake-up!
Pheeeewf...I think that about covers it! To those of you who have a weekend left, we wish you a GREAT one! XOXO.
