A Weekend Close to home...

So over the last few weekends we have been galavanting through parts of the Maritimes. This weekend we thought we would catch up on errands and stay close to home. With that being said, we still kept ourselves busy. Most of Friday I was kept busy with the continued hope of finding myself a job. I have my resume out to a few places and I'm hoping I will hear back from them at the beginning of this week. Friday evening we just watched TV-- our go to show right now is "Lie To Me"-- which is now almost done, or done its second season. It is mega-good and we tend to watch it as often as possible. Anyhow, with that being said, somehow our sleep deprivation caught up with us and we ended up sleeping for hours Friday night and getting well....a whole lot of nothing done.

Saturday turned out to be much more productive. We did a HUGE grocery shopping trip and the laundry got washed, dried, folded and put away! We had also planned to hang out with some of my bf's friends from his MBA program, so we headed back down the Bay Shore beach---the one we went to a couple weekends ago. Once again we played by the shore to find periwinkles and we started a fire to roast hot dogs and smores, and to boil the periwinkles we had just found. That took up a couple hours and then we headed home to be taught how to play a board game "The Settlers of Catan" which I had brought from my boyfriends house when I came to NB in June. I didn't win, sadly, and we didn't take any pictures of us playing the game--- but we did get some pictures sent to us from Sarah, one of Alex's friends, showing our campfire and Alex's adventure into the cold, cold, cold waters of the North Atlantic Ocean....

On a side note, I have heard that a few people I know might be heading out to New Brunswick (one friend of mine is out here right now-though I haven't had a chance to meet up with her yet)! I just wanted to say that if anyone is considering coming to the maritimes for a holiday don't forget I'm in New Brunswick and would LOVE to see you!!!
