Weekend went fast!

Well, we had a very good weekend but it went by too fast! There were no races this weekend so we got to spend the entire weekend together as a family!! Friday we didn't do much, but first thing Saturday morning we headed to the zoo! It was fun, we walked around the entire zoo (which really isn't that big and only took about two hours), then Jacob was ready for his nap so we took off and headed to the in laws (he napped on the way). We hung out at the in laws and helped set up their new hot tub and build a deck. FIL took us out for supper, a belated Mothers Day supper, and then we headed home. On Sunday I headed to St.Albert to see my brother, give him crap about not visiting my Dad more and to tell him I would take his crazy dog when they go on holidays instead of my Dad! Then I headed to see my Dad, he didn't look great but he didn't look too bad. I could definitely tell he has lost a lot of weight and his house was a mess but that's nothing new. I asked if he wanted to come back with me to the in laws to watch them build a deck and have a BBQ? He agreed but wanted to get showered and dressed first so I went shopping and came back to get him. He was glad to get out of the house and I'm glad I offered to drive him (even though it is a very long drive from his house to mine, it's not bad to do the drive once but I did it 3 times on Sun, which means 3 hours of driving!). It was worth it though to get him out of the house and make him feel like he wasn't "sick". I tried to make it somewhat fun and not talk about the Cancer too much. He is suppose to find out today when he goes in for chemo and radiation. By the time I knew it the weekend was over and now I'm back at work!

I think I want to try and see my Dad every weekend and get him out of the house at least once a week. It's not like I do anything on weekends when hubby is working the track I get lonely too so it might be good for both of us. I'm soooo regretting that I offered to take my brothers nutty dog, she is like a cannonball and I'm scared that she will give my dog a heart attack! My dog is old and too the point in life where all she does is eat and sleep, but my brothers dog is three and is big and still puppy like. She doesn't listen well and licks way too much!! She needs to go to puppy school but instead my brother bought two cats to entertain the dog!? But once again, it's better that I take this crazy dog instead of my Dad and I just have to remember that it's only for 10 days!! She is suppose to be dropped off on Wed, hopefully she isn't too bad.
