Weekend Wind Down 5/12/2012

I’ve felt like a VERY delinquent blogger this week. My apologies to all of you who I normally visit and comment upon. Work has been extra demanding this week (with one of the big projects nearing a close), so my time has been spoken for.

We’re looking forward to the weekend! Tomorrow, the boys are going to see “The Avengers” while the girls are going to get their nails done. And we’ve got all Sunday to do whatever Mrs. MMD wants to do for Mother’s Day (including catching up on all our shows that keep piling up on our DVR). Speaking of TV shows, is anyone watching “Don’t Trust the B”? That show is hilarious!

    Thank you for adding me! I know things can get busy – don’t feel too bad about it, we all fall of the map for awhile!

    Thanks for the mention MMD! I’ll also echo Daisy’s sentiments about not feeling bad. Maintaining all of those blogging activities is a ton of work. Most of us do go through periods where we just can’t keep up with it all.

    I echo your sentiments. Between work being so busy and it getting warmer out I have just not wanted to spend my free time sitting infront of the computer….Cheers to moving forward and getting out of our rut…
