I have been derelict in my blogging duties! It's because I was really busy having a fantastic weekend. I apologize for my absence.

There were just too many things to detail all of them, so I'll give you the play by play, day by day...

Thursday

Went to work (and by work, I mean the hospital... where I work for free... actually, I pay...)
Went to the doctor, cleared to walk, swim, and ride (a little)!
Went back to work
Got free lunch at conference
Went back to work
Went home
Went to the first Wake Forest football game of the season! The Deacons beat the Blue Hose... shocking.
Went to bed

Friday

Went to work (drove myself... without crutches!)
Went to sports med conference, got more free lunch!
Went back to work
Went home.
Took a nap
Ate some dinner
Went to the Winston-Salem Dash game with my friend Lindsay. They won. And this kid did some fantastic Michael Jackson dancing on the dugout. It was pretty sweet. And we ate ice cream.
Went to bed.

Saturday

Went to work, but only for a short time.
Went to my friend Keli's house to plan our tour de US, interview style. And ate fruit, and drank coffee, and played with dogs.
Went home and cleaned... a lot.
Drove to Burlington to hang out with some awesome LeadershipNOW people.
Went to the Le Creuset factory outlet and picked up a blue 5.5qt enamel finished cast iron, 1st quality pot... and a couple kitchen utensils (to be featured in a later post...)
Drove home and cleaned some more.
My parents came! And we went to Brixx for dinner.
Came home, ate peach pie, and watched TV (and drank coffee, which we had to stop at Starbucks to get, because I didn't have any decaf. Now I do. Phew.)
Went to sleep.

Sunday

Made coffee.
Went to Salem lake for a walk with my parents (I walked over 3 miles! Woot!)
Went out for breakfast... and drank more coffee.
Went to Dick's Sporting Goods and helped my dad pick out some new athletic shoes. He rivals me for thoroughness! Gotta get the right shoe!
Went to Shelton Vineyards! Met one of the Shelton's, went on a tour, tasted some wine, bought a bottle and sat outside at a picnic table next to a stream and drank it (not by myself... my parents were there too!), went on a hayride through the vines with a funny dude on a New Holland tractor.
Went to the grocery store to get supplies for Monday's cooking.
Went to Five Guys and got dinner, because my parents haven't been there, which is a crime.
Went home, ate our Five Guys, watched City Island (it was funny, I recommend it), and fell asleep watching TV.

Monday

Made coffee, and breakfast (of the fruit, yogurt, granola variety).
Cooked... lots. We made deviled eggs, the worlds best baked beans, and apple cobbler to take to a picnic!
Went shopping... ohhh did we go shopping. Not for me. Or my mom. For my dad. He needed some "going out" jeans. We ended up with a few pairs of jeans, a few long sleeved shirts, a few short sleeved shirts, three pairs of shoes, and a belt. It was a success. He will look very debonair. Oh, and I got a couple suits (on like super-sale) for interview season! And some hiking pants.
Went to the pool/hot tub.
Went to some friends house for a picnic, played with the puppies, ate EXCELLENT food and drink, hung out, chatted, etc etc etc.
Came home.
Said goodbye to my parents.
Looked up patients for today.
Went to bed.

Phew. It was a long, but good weekend! And best of all it was BEAUTIFUL outside. Fall is almost here, I can tell!

I can't wait.

I love fall.

And apple festivals.

The end.

Love,
Kari
