Another weekend .. another set of emotions

Hi there folks!


My weekend included a bit of everything. My routine Friday night, a hangover--lonely Saturday, and an interesting, educating, tiring day.

Friday after work, again, I trip to my pals Bonnie & Jeff's.
They've invited me, or I've invited myself, I don't think matters, we know what we do and that's....Friday night drinking at D'Areche!!


After a few beers and unwinding from another successful work week, Bonnie and I head to the Lounge. There we meet up with Deb and Rick. Another great couple! My new pals!
I know that we were having a great time..but do you think I remember what I wanted to blog about Rick? I've been racking my brain! I'm sure he remembers....but will he tell me?

We sat around, had lots of laughs and drinks, and watched Rick try and play pool...I didn't, cause, well, I was too busy in and out having smokes with Darrin chatting and giggling about good old Port Elgin and what we WEREN'T missing!! And seriously talking about our families and our futures that we are trying to give them.

SB is in this pic..he is a good guy! The three amigos..all the same age! lol After knowing and working with Darrin for over 3 yrs...we found out that our birthdays are one day apart!! Guess who is older??

Okay..to the good stuff. Soju! I've been warned about this stuff! Let's put it this way... I remember this pic..but I don't remember much AFTER this pic!!

Saturday, well I have to admit was a very quiet, lonely day. The fun was gone. Hung over city was here!!! Man....I was so depressed and feeling like a bag of crap! I didn't want to talk to anyone but my husband. So I called him at 4am his time!! LOL

I knew he'd be up...heck..he was out having his Friday night. He put me at ease. Surprise everyone..he does have a soft side that I and his mom can only see! LOL


After chatting with him and listening to a music video he asked me to listen to, I refocused on my priorities in life and decided....I'm hungry!

So, I go and have dinner for one. One well done sirloin steak and a glass of white wine, ahhhh....just what mamma needed!! That hit the spot. Nice hot bath...with bubbles ended my day, as I fell asleep with a smile,thinking ..my boys are getting ready for the long awaited vacation. I know they will have a good time..........................without me! Seriously, they deserve to have this trip..they worked hard at school this year.

Sunday - I head out on the Gyeongju Bus Tour with a few fellow coworkers. What a great trip! Koreans are so spiritual and respect their history and religion. The culture and the heritage of this country is impecible. The structures, tombs and temples are not extravagant,but yet elegant and well taken care of.

I was in awe at all I saw and experienced this day in the ancient city of Gyeongju. History has never been one of my things, but the Korean history is so spiritual. It really helped me understand the true meaning of life.

Past, Present, Future. Simple, clear and true. Exact thoughts of this weekend.

Here are some pics I took. I witnessed several National Treasures. hmm..didn't see Nicolas Cage though.....

Enjoy. More pics on facebook
