Weekend update

Last week I started watching The Tudors on Showtime. I've heard the show was good and I wanted to see if it was something I would like to watch. I taped one of the episodes from Season 2 and watched it. I really liked it. I watched the entire Season 2 on Showtime on Demand. I had Season 1 on my Netflix queue. Disc 1 of Season 1 kept getting pushed back by my husband. Finally when it was in the number one slot, it said I had a short wait. The short wait turned into a long wait. I wanted to see them now and not later.

I drove to both video rental stores in town. The first place didn't have it available. The second place had Season 2 on the shelf. I asked about Season 1 and it was out. The worker said it was due back today. I didn't want to wait around for it so I headed to a store to see if I could buy it. The first store I went to only had Season 2. The second store didn't carry it at all. I tried another store and finally found it. I found Season 1 and Season 2 together. And a nice bonus was they were both on sale. I bought them, went home and watched Season 1. When I watched Season 1, it helped fill in the gaps that I didn't understand when I watched Season 2 the first time around. I finally understood what people were talking about and who all of the characters are. The Tudors is my new favorite show.

Over the weekend, I was an Altar Server for my church's Easter Vigil. Everyone involved with the mass had rehearsal at 8:30 a.m. Saturday morning. Rehearsal went well, but it was three hours long. Some people were still walking in the door at 9 a.m. so we had to wait until everyone was there before starting. I don't get it. Why can't people get up earlier to be somewhere at a certain time? When I was meeting with clients for my wedding photography business, no one showed up when they were supposed to. They were always 15-20 minutes late.

Before mass I was studying my notes. The Easter Vigil mass isn't like a normal Saturday mass. There were many more duties to do. My serving partner and I were told not to bring our notes to mass. But we did anyway. I needed my notes to remind when to we needed to start doing our duties at certain points during the vigil. After mass I was told my many people that my serving partner and I did a great job. It was really nice to hear. Even though I did study my notes at home, it was a relief to have them sitting under my chair to refer to.

I had a nice Easter. I ran a Bunny Hop 5K on my treadmill. I like to run 5Ks on holidays, even if they are on my treadmill. Run in the morning, eat good food all day. I felt really good during the run and my heel felt really good as well. After my run, I went to my Mom's house and had dinner and my husband went to his parents house. All my siblings were there except one brother and sister. They both had to work. We had a nice conversation and had some delicious food.
