Project 365 and More Catching Up

Seems try as I might to catch up, the behinder I get. For as many days that have been consumed with work and just hanging at home, I’ve had days so full of stuff it’s taken me days to go through all the pictures. I’m also trying to catch up on burning some of these many pictures to disc as I’m running out of disc room and I have three 1GB discs and one 2GB disc. Yikes! So lets get cracking shall we.  We’re on the weekend and Saturday running errands after I had to go in to work for the morning. Headed south to the mall of first a stop for lunch at a popular hot dog spot.  No frills kinda place that just has steamed hot dogs, kept on a warmer in butter,  with mustard, onions and relish. In recent years they added chili for the dogs to the menu but gotta have them the Nick’s Nest traditional way.  Accompanied by one of their milk shakes and it’s a perfect lunch. Fortified we headed to the mall where I hit Sephora for a cute little kit of four of their OPI nail colors. I always used to love doing my nails but somehow got out of the habit. Saw some of the OPI shades a month or so ago at my hair salon and felt the urge to do something fun for myself. Now I’m hooked again. It’s such a lift to see a pretty color on your hands.  Sunday morning I was lazing in my jammies doing my usual catch up of blogs and Facebook while listening to Acoustic Sunrise. Got a message on Facebook from a friend of ours Joanna who was thinking of coming our way for the day and wondered if we were free. Why not, it was a beautiful Sunday, what better way to spend it than showing a friend from another state around. I shared some pictures from that in a post here already but here’s a couple more views from the top of Sugarloaf. Looking toward Sunderland in this one and Joanna hamming it up in my picture of the day. Back to the work-a-day world and one of the albums that I made from our trip to Revere Beach and Boston arrived. It was the highlight of my Monday. More heat and humidity! Hard to believe we’re still seeing it in September but thankfully not staying around. In the meantime, the boys and I headed to the air conditioned bedroom to watch the US Open. Novak Dvokovic won a very exciting match this evening.  What’s been our go-to supper on all the really hot days we’ve had grinders. This day wasn’t any different. Supper from the Polish Deli in town.  Employee meeting day and in addition to feeding us Apple Crisp from Chandlers, fresh fruit, coffee and juices, we all got a commemorative anniversary edition of Spiced Pumpkin. The end of a crazy busy week at work and a nice treat of Boneless Wings from the best local spot for wings with more flavors than you can count. Yummy as they were the highlight of my day was coming home and finding my other free photo album had arrived. This one from Shutterfly. Saturday we were celebrating Crystal’s birthday with her and Kevin. It was actually Friday but Saturday evening they came up and we went to a restaurant in town here for dinner. Crystal and I both enjoyed pasta dishes, while Kevin and Matt had the fish and chips platters. Very yummy and leftovers, always good! It was close enough that we’d walked and on the way home I captured this shot of them that was my picture of the day and the close for this post.
