Busy Weekend Over, Boredom Sets In

I have been dreading/looking forward to the weekend for quite a while and now that it is over, I'm feeling bored.

On Friday, I hosted a shower for my friend Kristen from work who is getting married in March. The dread came in worrying about preparing the house and making the food etc for the party the looking forward came in wanting all my friends and co-workers to come over for a really great time.

Well, it was a really, really fun shower. The house looked great, thanks in to the big help from my hubby and kids. They even made themselves and the dog scarce all evening so we "girls" could have fun. And fun we had, a little too much fun probably. It gets kinda scarey when grown woman contemplate Teepeeing their bosses or co-workers house. Everyone said how much fun they had and how much they liked my food etc. Kristen was very appreciative about everything.

Then on Sudnay night we had her bachelorette party at the Lumiere, a new casino on the St. Louis Riverfront. It was also fun , but I must say not as much fun as at my house.

But now, it's Monday, another day off work and I am a little bored. I guess I am actually looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. (Did I really just say that?)

I've been really curious about Lumiere Place -- is it as nice as the advertising makes it out to be?

Lumiere was okay, the restaruant we went to was called the Kithen and it was a buffet. I didn't thnk it was that great. The casino was small but the hotel was very nice, modern, big rooms, pretty view! There are still quite a few things not open so it may get better once everything is fully open.
