Labor day weekend...

It was so nice to have a three-day weekend. Hubby and I had a BBQ on Saturday and a bunch of friends came over. As expected, it cost us a pretty penny, but there are just some times when you have to give in (maybe??). Sunday and today we just hung out around the house, and even sold my desk to a wonderful woman off craigslist.

Perhaps the most exciting news to me is that we got our new table... and also two stackable shelving units that I've been wanting for a long time. We still have boxes of dishes and what-not recieved as wedding gifts stashed in a closet, and it was time to get them out. I totally scored too... the desk was normally $299.99, but on sale for $199.99, and I had a 10% off coupon making it $179.99. The shelving units each are normally $139.99, but were on sale for $99.99 and using the same 10% off coupon, we go tthem for $79.99 each! Like I said, the whole thing was too good of a deal to pass up, especially since I've been wanting them for the last year. We're a little tight on money now until we get paid this week, but bills are good, and credit cards are on track.

All in all, a great weekend and after the BBQ (and table/shelves) we didn't spend a time. Heck, we didn't even eat out! Yay for us!
