We made dinner for a friend that had surgery Friday night. Saturday I had to go shopping for a going away scrapbook for our youth pastor and his family and then get ready for and clean-up after their farewell potluck followed by a relaxing late evening hanging out with a friend and watching a cheesy Hallmark movie. Sunday after church there was a lunch wedding shower and that afternoon I still had to do my big grocery shopping trip and the house needed (still needs) some work. Some of the small groups met Sunday night. I don’t think ours did, but even if they had we would have stayed home. Busy isn’t always better and sometimes it’s okay to say no – especially if those large social events drain instead of energize you. 🙂 Yep, that would be me.
It was a good weekend all in all. I’m just thankful that every one isn’t like that and I’m thankfully we are looking at a calm next week. Last week my 15 month old went 5 nights in a row waking up only once (and he’s probably had fewer than 5 of those nights total in his life before). I’m hoping we see some more this week.

Linking up to Menu Plan Monday
Fruit salad with coconut flakes and nuts sounds like a great breakfast. I try to eat a grain-free diet so I often eat fruit for breakfast too. Good luck with your goals this week. Stopping by from the Money Saving Mom goals link-up.
It was pretty tasty but I found I couldn’t eat just it – too much sugar I guess and not enough protein or fat? What else do you like to eat for grain free breakfasts? I’ve done green smoothies before and liked them but they don’t like you to do smoothies on the Whole30. I’ll be excited to eat all kind-of normal foods again in 23 days. 🙂
