Another weekend gone. Friday after work, I went up to the high school to help the band boosters prep the concession stand. By that, I mean I cut up tomatoes, chopped onions, and got the condiment table ready. I didn't stay for the game since it was suppose to be so cold. Plus, I had needed to bake some brownies for the bake sale at the band competition on Saturday. And, I baked some muffins for the Hospitality Room for the competition. YS & I had a nice dinner out, followed by a quick trip to the Dollar Tree.
CH drove 7 hours to his high school alma mater, where they were celebrating 100 years of football. Since I had taken last Friday off, I didn't think I should take that Friday, too. Here is CH & his brother with their football coach:
And, CH with the State Championship Trophy that they won:
Saturday, I had to be at the high school by 3:00 to work in the Hospitality Room. This wasn't a bad gig, let me tell ya! I was inside, and away from the hustle and bustle. For 5 years I worked concessions; this was much, much nicer! Not to mention warmer. I didn't feel the least bit guilty as I walked by the current boosters breaking down the concession stand.
I got to the school a little early so I could watch a few of the bands.
Small Town's band marched exhibition for the first time since the current band director has been there (which has been 9 years). Even though I didn't have anybody out there, I was so proud of what that band has accomplished over the past 9 years. 9 years ago, there were only around 18 members. It's grown to around 50 (or more), and they sounded soooo wonderful!
Yesterday was laundry, and catching up on "The Blacklist". I also watched "The Heat" with Melissa McCarthy & Sandra Bullock. It wasn't quite as funny as I thought it was going to be, but it was okay.
Hope you had a good weekend, too!
Curious what you think of the blacklist. I'm partway through last week's episode and am starting to get squeamish with all the violence. I may give up if they keep this up.
ReplyDeleteWell you had a busy weekend and did all that baking too! Glad CH got to go and join his brother at his alma mater. I enjoyed "The Heat" but it wasn't as funny as I had expected it to be either.
ReplyDeleteHow fun for CH! I'm glad you got an indoor gig : )
ReplyDeleteAbout time you got an easier job. ;-) Sounds like a nice weekend.
