It Was A Busy Weekend

Have you ever felt like you needed a rest to get over your weekend? That is how I feel. I didn't do a lot of housework this weekend, just laundry and dishes but I did have some good time with my daughter. On Saturday, she picked me up and we headed up to Vernon to Reins Deli for lunch, I had a wonderful Corn Beef Rachel ( that is a Reuben with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut) . The reason we were in Vernon was that there is a consignment shop in the same plaza that had a 50% off sale. My daughter found three dresses. I didn't find anything. We then went to TJMaxx but neither of us found anything. We hopped back into the car and went to the second location of the consignment store in Glastonbury. I found three pairs of pants, 2 Denim and Company and one Simply Vera. My daughter found 5 dresses. (she loves wearing a dress to work) We made one last stop at another TJ Maxx and she bought a shirt, I bought nothing. I was looking for something specific, the week before I bought 2 tops from Jane and Delancey and I was hoping they might have more of them in another color. No such luck. On Sunday we went to church and then had brunch in Hartford with our daughter and her husband. I spent a lot of time putting photos on the iCloud. I upped the amount of storage I have to 250 GBs and I hope that will be enough. Thank you to everyone for your suggestions. It encouraged me to go ahead and learn how to use the cloud for storage.

You really did pack a lot of stuff into your weekend! It really sounds like you and your daughter had a wonderful time together-you're very blessed to have that bond. I'm happy to hear that you've found a solution to your photo storage issue, I hope that this will suffice and that you won't run out of space and will be able to easily access the photos.

Yes, that is how I feel after getting off work around the weekend time. (my job usually has me work through weekends....) You've had busy but productive time!!! All that shopping sounds fun and interesting. :)

Wow! What a busy weekend you had and fun shopping with your daughter. My husband has eaten at Reins Deli. I think it was near Hartford, since he was hired as an expert witness and appeared in court there. And I'm so glad you learned how to store your photos in the iCloud! 250 GBs should do very well.

Thank you, I always underestimate my ability to learn new things. I like it when someone tells me how to do something, I learn easier that way but I just sucked it up and read about it. I am dropping things in from two laptops and my desktop so I have got it and now that I have set up folders I will actually be able to find my photos, whoo hoo!! And yes, Reins is in Vernon which is quite near Hartford.

It's fun learning something new. I'm sorry you didn't find anything new on your trip. Does sound like your daughters did, and that makes the trip worthwhile. The sandwich looks interesting. I'm not one who likes sauerkraut so have never had a Reuben, I might try a Rachel, though not particularly fond of coleslaw, but better then sauerkraut.

She does love her clothes but she has such a cute figure that everything looks good on her. I am sure that you are the same.
