A long weekend

It's Easter weekend so we get a 4 day weekend, well, kinda. I am going in to work tomorrow for 2 hours, just in case it's a busy day, so everyone can get their lunch hours in. We woke up to sunshine today, it's so nice to see the sun after such a long winter, unfortunately it's not going to stay with us, there is a heavy rain warning for tonight and tomorrow and it's supposed to rain for the next few days.

After I work tomorrow we'll head to Bridgewater to see a movie, Doug and Josh are going to Fast & Furious and Breanna and I are going to see Hannah Montana. Sunday we'll go up to Doug's parents for Easter supper and then Monday it's back to work, for me at least. Doug is still off for another week, I don't think this shut down is ever going to get over. They are supposed to go back to work on the 20th and we are keeping our fingers crossed that they do and that they stay there for awhile this time.

Next week this time we'll have some company, Teagan is coming out from the city to spend the weekend with us. We are all looking forward to her visit, of course Josh is the most excited about it. She's his first girlfriend and he's pretty much head over heals, I don't think I'm ready for this yet. LOL Teagan is a very cute, very sweet girl, I think she'll fit in quite well here. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures while she's here and post a couple for you guys to see. She's never been to Queens Co. before and was so shocked last night when I told her that we can often watch the deer in the yard from the kitchen table. I think she's in for quite a shock coming to Brooklyn. She's a city girl for sure and we hope that she likes country life, I might be brave enough to let her come here for the weekend but I'm not brave enough to let Josh go to Dartmouth for the weekend, that thought scares the shit out of me. Lately there's been so many stories of crime, assault and murder in the city, I honestly don't want him going in for a visit. I know you can live in there and be safe but Teagan spends lots of time hanging out with her friends, taking the bus to where she wants to go...Josh has always lived in the "country" he doesn't have any street smarts, let alone city street smarts, Josh also often speaks before he thinks, which can and has gotten him in trouble in the past, in the city this could get him in a lot more trouble. Anyway, maybe I'm stressing when I don't need to, we'll deal with that when the time comes.

Speaking of Josh, I had him to the Dr. the other day for his BP check like the neurologist wanted me to, it was up, as we know because I bought a good machine to use here at home. Dr. Gary happened to be out by the desk when we went in and he followed us in so he could see what it was when his nurse took it. Right away he decided he wanted him booked for the 24 hour BP test and they called the other day to book him for the 20th.

Anyway, I guess I should go to the theater website to buy our tickets to the Hannah movie, it just came out today so I want to get our tickets ahead of time, the guys won't have a problem getting theirs so we'll get those ones when we get there, I have Air Miles gift certificates for those ones and a gift card to get our treats, so it will be a pretty cheap date.

Happy Easter Every Bunny!
