Fundraiser Dinners and the Weekend

Happy Friday friends! This week felt really long. Might be in part because I two days I went to the city or maybe because it was dreary and rainy all week. Any rate, I'm happy Friday has arrived! I don't have any major plans for the week-end; a little relaxing, perhaps a hike, and of course playing on my new macbook! Then we have a fundraiser dinner to attend at the private school I attended for almost all my elementary school and some high school years.

Do you like fundraising dinners? I don't they feel so stuffy. We went last year and this year I was going to try to get out of it and got caught without a (good) excuse. Don't get me wrong. I don't mind helping non-profit organizations out but I don't need to hear the whole brag fest song and dance....we're better than all other schools dribble. Than you've got the people who attended or kids that currently attend come up and talk about how this school has changed their lives and is so amazing. I went there, I don't know that it really helped me fulfil my life destiny that much! But I also have served at these fundraiser dinners oh let's say 15 years ago (gulp am I really that old already?) I know the stories they tell the kids about how they really need people to donate lots of money so we can stay privileged enough to attend this great school. But I digress. Tomorrow we'll dress nice, bring our wallet, and bid on a bunch of stuff at the auction. Because maybe that school does help mold and shape some kids to who they are meant to be later in life. And I did have some good times there. But that's the end of that rant!

The rest of the week-end should be pretty great. I'm hoping the weather is nice and sunny  then we can spend most the time outdoors and perhaps get some of the yard work done! I'm going to be on the look-out for some cool blue photographs!!

What are your plans for the week-end? Are you going to take it easy? Or are your week-ends so busy you need another one to recover?
