Weekends

I live for the weekends. No, I mean, I really live for the weekends.  For me, the weekend is not just my respite from the daily grind of work and class.  It is so much more than that.  For me, the weekends are my time with my fiance, my other half, my best friend. 

The fiance and I, from the beginning, have been in a long-distance relationship, but I never thought (in the beginning) that the week could be so long and the weekends so short.  I would like to propose that we switch the two, so that workdays are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, while the weekends are Monday - Thursday.  Wouldn't that be nice?  (Which brings to mind my favorite Beach Boys song, and the song that so often describes how I feel... 'Wouldn't it Be Nice?') I honestly cannot recall having a bad weekend since I have been with my fiance (except the one weekend right in the beginning where we didn't see each other).

Take this weekend for example, I worked on Friday and then drove home on Saturday morning.  Once home, I met him for coffee and then went home to spend time with my stepsister while he worked out.  Then we celebrated his dad and sister's birthdays.  Sunday, we went shopping for a new camera (to replace the one I dropped while visiting Anderson Gardens) and I bought a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5, and I love it ( I could probably write an entire post on its awesome-ness, but I'll resist at the moment).  The day was finished off with a trip to Panera and then goodbye.

Enough about weekends though because everybody loves the weekend and continuing to rave about them would be akin to beating a dead horse.

In other news, the check for the deposit for June 17, 2012 at Anderson Gardens has been sent in :-) and the date is officially ours!

These are the first couple of pictures taken with my brand new fantastic camera.
