July 22/Friday I finally stopped being lazy. I only had to work an hour in the morning and then I was done for the day. HD got home from his business trip in the afternoon. I jumped in the shower as soon as HM and the kids left for work/school. I went to the hair salon to get my bangs trimmed quickly. I need my bangs trimmed about three to four times more often than I get my actual hair cut. Luckily my hair dresser does it free of charge, though I do leave her a small tip. I caught the train out to Erlangen to go to my (future) school. I had to give them the results of my Goethe Institut test and also ask them to give me a letter proving my enrollment for me to bring to the Ausländeramt (foreigners' office) to get my visa extended. It only took me five minutes to get everything taken care of once I was at the office. I was pleased with how easy and quick it was. I caught the train back to Nürnberg and ran some errands downtown. It had been awhile since I'd walked around downtown and it was nice to breathe in the familiar scents and see my favorite sights. I stopped at the grocery store on the way home. I spent a few hours at home relaxing before heading out again for the evening. As I was getting ready to go, HM asked me if I could watch the kids for a little bit. She wanted to leave for her dance class and HD was on a conference call. I sat with the kids for 15 minutes. Luckily HD finished up in time for me to catch my train. I met up with Leo and we went to dinner at an adorable Italian restaurant. I'd never been there before, and it was delicious. We met up with other friends after dinner and we all stayed up until the wee hours of the morning laughing and making memories.
Saturday for lunch I met up with Leo. We enjoyed a German breakfast buffet and a walk around the city before parting ways in the afternoon. I went home and napped before my evening of work. HP went to the neighbor's for T's 50th birthday party and I stayed home with the kids. It was a fairly normal evening for us. Since it was Saturday, the kids were able to stay up a little later. I put the boys to sleep and then went to sleep right away myself. I was still exhausted from Friday. HP didn't get home until between 1:30 and 2, so I wasn't able to go out anyways.
Sunday I spent the day with friends watching movies and laying around. It was a wonderful end to the weekend.
