This weekend Glenn and I are going to NY so that we can pick up my sister. She is spending spring break with us. She was with us for Easter last year, too. Saturday I have to go to PA. to do dress stuff for a wedding I am going to be in in September. I am not really looking forward to it. The girl is nice enough, but we aren't actually friends. You see, Carl, the groom, was my best friend in NY. Now he is getting married to Debbie, whom I have only met two or three times, and they want me as a bridesmaid. I am doing it mainly so as not to hurt Carl's feelings, but I feel a little out of place with her and her friends.
My in-laws are coming over for Easter dinner. My mother-in-law mentioned she would have liked to come over, but wouldn't if my sister was going to be here, and so I of course offered to have them over anyway, and they are going to take me up on it. I am nervous, though. I have never entertained them before. They have never tasted my cooking, and whenever they visited we went out for lunch or dinner, so I never had to worry about keeping them happy and busy. The other problem I am having is my Mom. She is very obviously jealous that my in-laws are going to be here for the holiday, and she isn't. She made this comment, "I guess I am not upset that she is spending your first holiday you're entertaining with you, instead of me." ::sigh:: I know I can't make everyone happy, but having my Mom annoyed bothers me more then just about anyone else. She'll have to deal, however, because I can't do anything to change things now. I did extend the invitation to my parents today, though. But Mom said she wouldn't come and interrupt. Just another way to lay on the guilt trip. Oh well....
Last night my religious ed students were a bit annoyed with me. I only have two more classes, and I really needed their attention to finish up what we needed to do. So, I separated the more chatty students. One of my kids was particularly annoyed, pouting the entire class, and refusing to do anything. ::grumble:: I don't like to call parents if I can avoid it. I much prefer to work things out with the kids. Especially with so few classes left.
So, I have been considering joining Curves for a while now. I had started losing weight, and was doing pretty well, but I have stagnated. I've decided I need to boost up my metabolism with some activity, which is where Curves comes in. I have an appointment to go try out their workout tomorrow afternoon. If I like it, I will sign up for the year. Their having a half price deal on their one time membership, so it is $75 instead of $150, and then $29 a month if you commit for a year. You can do it month to month, but then you pay $39 a month and can only go to the Curves you join in. You can go to any Curves with the year commitment.
And lastly, tonight I go clothes shopping. I need some spring and summer clothes. Although it's really hard to consider dressing for spring and summer with the weather the way it's been, but if I don't I will go crazy searching for something to wear on the next beautiful day we have.
