hi folks! it's weekend wishes time! did you miss it? i did! i always look forward to friday's post because i have so much fun putting it together and hearing all your comments. i'm hoping it's just like getting back on a bike for me when it comes to my old blogging routine. it's been a few months and having guest posts is definitely not the same as blogging full time myself - so bear with me.

we've got a long weekend here in sunny ol' british columbia (canada) and i managed to bat my eyelashes at the hubs enough to get him to take a day off so we get 4 days off together! holy moly! talk about a miracle! i cannot wait. this week has felt super long, not sure why, but it's dragged. i'm looking forward to some actual family time - not errand running time.

having 2 kids instead of one sure makes it a lot tougher for me to get out during the week to get grocery shopping and errands done, so we have been saving them for the weekends lately and it sure sucks...bah. our weekends have turned into chores and groceries. not fun. this weekend we plan on bbq'ing with friends, relaxing, sunbathing, the hubs is doing some golfing and i'll be playing with and trying to figure out the new laptop. i cannot wait. bring on the leisurely breakfasts, sleeping in, relaxing....oh wait, who am i kidding here...i've got kids & a husband! ok, bring on the 5:00am wake up, dirty diapers, breastfeeding, toddler antics, laundry doing, dishes, dusting, baby snuggles, laughter, dress up & storytime and all around how wonderful is this time :)

i, of course, also plan to relish in the newest season of mad men and project runway. i'm saving them to enjoy on the weekend when i have help with the littlies and am not blogging or sewing at night. oh, and don't worry, i'm still working on that tutorial, it's just gonna take me a while. hopefully i'll get sometime to work on it. because of the long weekend there prolly won't be a post on here till tues or wed. i'm taking a much needed day off too :) hope you all have a happy weekend!

what are your weekend wishes? any of you die hard PR fans too (i've been watching project runway australia to fill the void)? any fellow b.c. folks doing anything special for the long weekend? come chat!
