Well thank goodness the weekend is over…

Sometimes, not often, but definitely sometimes, my weekends are SO hectic that I need a weekend to get over them.

This one was one of those.

Yesterday was filled with running Toto and Boo around to parties and friends, and picking “her” up from hospital and taking her home, before spending TWO HOURS getting ready for a family wedding.

Yep.  TWO HOURS!!

It’s because I’m out of practice.  Shamefully out of practice!  I rarely wear makeup, and my hair only ever says hullo to a hairdryer when I visit the hairdressers.  And my legs… let’s not go there .

So yesterday I did the big transformation.  This involved:

shaving my legs

finding and putting in contact lenses

putting on makeup

washing and straightening my hair

finding something in my wardrobe that still fits and could be considered “formal”.

*sigh*

My hat is off to all women who do this stuff every day.

It’s absolutely bloody exhausting!

Anyhoo… where was I?

Oh yeah.  The wedding.

It was lovely.  I cried.  But I had to stay sober in order to drive my Dad home so I didn’t cry as much as I would have if someone else had been driving.

And then I was up at sparrow’s fart this morning for another lovely photoshoot with an incredibly fun and gorgeous family…

… before collecting my boys, racing home for the annual “Christmas Drinks on the Lawn” that the Body Corporate of my building organises, racing to friends’ for a b-b-q, and then coming home and collapsing for 5 minutes while the boys carried on as though their entire world depended on being “RIGHT” and making their brother “WRONG”.

Now they’re in bed.  I’m processing photos.  And I’m exhausted.

I need a weekend to recover.

How was YOUR weekend?
