Ten on Tuesday - What I Did Last Weekend

This week's Ten on Tuesday is 10 Things You Did This Weekend. My biggest problem may be remembering what I did, and my next problem may be that even if I remember, they may be ten of the most boring things you've ever read.
  1.  Changed the sheets on three beds from regular sheets to flannel. It's that time of year!
  2.  Caught up on laundry - boring but necessary.
  3.  Caught up on ironing - even more boring, but still necessary.
  4.  Spoke with Older Son on the phone.
  5.  Made beef barley soup. In the spirit of full disclosure, I actually used venison since Younger Son was out deer hunting and it looks like I will have more venison this year.
  6.  Downloaded some new books via Overdrive from Poudre River Public Library. I got a card when I was visiting Older Son and am as happy as a kid in a candy store since their Overdrive collection is so much better than my hometown library's.
  7.  Read Centennial on my Kindle while making soup and listened to The Seduction of Water on my ipod while I raked leaves. Hooray for multitasking that includes reading!
  8.  Started making some Christmas gift lists since I had some good ideas that I didn't want to forget.
  9.  Made some travel plans with my sister-in-law, nephew, and his new girlfriend that none of us have met yet. The family grapevine says that she's working on a PhD in witchcraft (I think the grapevine may have garbled things a bit!), so I'm looking forward to meeting her and finding out her real area of research.
  10.  Knit!

So what did you do this weekend? Hope it was fun!

  2. I am all about multi tasking. I listened to Outlander this weekend while I was knitting and dying some yarn. Your hitchhiker looks so pretty! I love the colors in your yarn.
