How's Your Weekend?

What's everyone up to?
Congratulations to Pam on her upcoming retirement!! Wish we could all celebrate in person.
I've just finished 2 hours of doing something that I haven't done in years - ironing. Tomorrow is 50s throw-back day, so I had some scrambling to do. Found a dress that looks very much like something my mom wore in the 50s so had to iron a gazillion wrinkles out of that and then iron in pleats. George is wearing blue jeans, a black T-shirt and a letterman jacket (Chris'), so his jeans had to be ironed with sharp creases and his T-shirt ironed. Thankfully my crinoline (yes, one of those, too) couldn't be ironed so I was spared that. And yes, we will take photos.
Other than that, we're both preparing a few dishes to feed around 40 to take with us, so slaving in the kitchen.
Trying to do a bit of laundry that was put off until today because of other crises - the worst was the dog having an upset tummy all over the large den area rug. Spent 2 days cleaning and drying that thing and then had to mop the floor. Oy. I need to go back to work so I can rehire my house cleaner!
Other than that, the usual: taking care of horses, dogs, cats, errands and trying to finish the LO for Monday's 6x6 class.
One of these days I'll have time to enjoy retirement!
