I hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day Holiday Weekend! It is monday and I am exhausted,ha. I also took two benedryl last night and am so droggy today because of it. My allergies have been going crazy and to help me sleep last night I took the benedryl, but can't function today because of it. Oh well, gives me an excuse to be lazy.
My husband and I have never been to the Greek Festival in the short north of Columbus and we ended up going this weekend. One of Tom's buddies from work goes every year and kept telling us about it and we finally went this year. It was fun! We tried different kinds of Greek food and it was really good. Everyone talks about the baklava and I did not like it. Tom did, but I was not impressed at all. I am not a fan of the Greek desserts. We also checked out the North Market there and it reminded us of the Continent when it was open. Wow, that brings back memories of growing up. We spent alot of time at the Continent on weekends growing up. We want to go back so that we can spend more time in the North Market. We did not get to spend much time there because of going over to the Greek Festival. We will be back for sure!
We toured an amazing church at the Greek Festival. It was so beautiful!! I can't even start to explain the dome ceiling inside this church! It was millions of tiny pieces of mosaic art and it was gorgious! It took two years to build the church. I am going to hopefully post pictures of the church dome on my facebook page. If I can figure out how to get them off my cell phone. I will have to ask Angie (a friend) because she does it all the time.
We also went to the flea market in our town at the fairgrounds early in the morning before going to the Greek Festival. It had been awhile since we had been there. I bought a Fisher Price house for the babysitting kids to play with. When I got it home, I saw that it was cracked on one side with the plastic coming off. Oh Well, I only paid $3.00 for it,ha. I will have to tape up the one side with packing tape or something. It should be ok. If not, I will have to throw it away I guess. I also bought a Noah's Ark set for the kids to play with for $2.00. I got a paper weight for my desk that is cool looking, it reminds me of those lava lamp designs on the inside of the paper weight. My cousin Brittany had made a bunch of heating pad things with field corn on the inside and you heat in the microwave for a heating pad. She was selling those for only a $1.00 and I bought one from her. I tried it last night in the microwave and it is awesome! It works great!
We wanted to go to the flea market in another town nearby, but the rain on monday stopped those plans. We ended up just staying at home doing stuff around the house that needed done. We put our new doorbell (on the outside of door) up after being broke forever. We fixed some spots on our walls that got banged up. We set my new moniter up on my desk for my computer. I did laundry. We will probably go out to eat later. That is about it. It was nice just to stay home today and relax mostly and spend time with my hubby.
Hope you all had a great weekend. Back to work Tuesday. The weekend flew by as always!
Talk to you all soon,
Shellie
