Friday: Ward was heading off to a buddy’s lease with him so I said a quick hello and goodbye when I got home from work. I then went and met friends for ladies night at the pottery painting place. It was a nice evening. A little food, a little drink, good friends, and good times. It’s been a while since we’d all gotten together for pottery, and since I made something for myself so I painted this little guy for my kitchen.
It was a pretty lazy night after I got home. Just watched a few shows off the DVR and went to bed.
Saturday: Got up early and packed up the dogs to head to my parents. My mom and I were going down to Galveston to do an Alzheimer’s walk on the beach with the dogs. It was just a mile walk, but the weather was cool and overcast and there were lots of other people and dogs and it was the beach! We had a nice time, the dogs got to get out and do something different and fun. We went to breakfast afterwards (since we were done before 10am!) and stopped in at Marshall’s and picked up a few good deals. I didn’t get back home until about 3:30pm. Ward was on his way home soon after that. I lounged around until he got home since I had such a busy day so far. He napped a bit when he got home then we both got showered and cleaned up and we went and met his mom and brother for dinner. We got home and pretty much went straight to bed. We were both just exhausted!
Sunday: Got up at a decent time…about 7:30am. It was still cool outside so Ward and I spent some time outdoors. I pulled more weeds from the front yard and he washed his truck since it was covered in mud from the lease. When it started to rain we headed inside. I finally got our budget updated for September and Ward napped some more. After updating the budget, I was able to move $4500 into our savings!! That was VERY exciting. I mean, we’ve been spending less than we bring in every month, but this was the first time I actually moved some of that money into our actual savings account. It was a good feeling. Other than that, I did a few loads of laundry, Ward worked on some stuff in the garage, we had dinner, watched Year One, and I found Ward’s birthday present. I still haven’t been able to order it though! His birthday is in 13 days! I must do that today…I bet I can from my iphone.
And just because it’s Tuesday, and I was so proud of my accomplishments last night,
Monday: Don’t worry, I won’t bore you with my crappy day at work. Just wanted say I started the week off good on the home front. I got home and Ward was already there (!!). We cleaned off the dogs since they were outside in the mud and rain all day. We ran to Petco and got dog food and stopped in Kroger for a few items (which turned into $94 after we got a bunch of meat on sale…). We got home and Ward vacu-packed all the meat for the freezer and I cooked dinner. Pork chops, rice, and broccoli with cheese sauce. Mmm. We watched a couple shows during dinner then I cleaned the whole kitchen. After I finished with that I took a load of laundry upstairs and put away ALL of my clean clothes. Then got ready for bed and was in bed by 10:30pm! Whoa. That is an accomplishment these days! I hope to keep it up, that’s for sure. It was soooooo nice to come downstairs this morning to a spotless kitchen!!
