Monday Again @ The Shop

Hellloooo readersss. Well, hello Michelle! ;) It's nice that over the years, we have both known even if no one else reads our blogs or looks at our websites, we did each others!!

So had a good weekend! The week was a little rocky, Lee and I fell off our happy wagon a bit. Not that we were unhappy, but sometimes you are just in the groove and things are going good you know, and then sometimes its just a little eh, your just living with each other...I dunno, I may not be making any sense at all. I was also really bored at work all last week. I need to find another game to play, lol. I was playing an online rpg (role playing game) but it got boring...that kept me interested.

So just went and got some lunch from guthries, now dad is on the phone in front of me trying to get a real person at bank of america. Thats a feat! Just tried calling the mother, she is wanting to make dinner for the in laws. The mother in law had surgery last week and is out of commission for a while. Shes not answering tho! Urgh.

So back to the weekend! Friday night we did our becoming-a-tradition thing and went to Salsas, its a mexican/american restaurant, one of both of our faves. Which is unusual that we both like a place that much. They have the BEST chips and salsa. Yumm, and I usually get a chimichanga with shrimp or beef. I like it because its pretty quiet and fast, and the waitresses are nice. A lot of what makes a difference to me is the atmosphere and how I'm treated. If one of those is off bad enough, I won't go back.

So then we headed home and Lee decided to use up our last batting cage tokens, hehe. I found out I really suck at hitting softballs! I don't have a clue what I'm doing, lol. Better learn before next year if we get a church womens team going!

Oh and Lee bought me FLOWERS Friday. I KNOW. That like, never happens. Well except for like V-day or my birthday. They are all red roses and daisys and stuff. Very pretty! I don't know what came over him, lol! But I like itttt, heheheh. I guess my trying to change my attitude is working! He put them in a vase near the door but I totally missed them. I noticed my fake flowers were laying on the counter, and then saw some flower food, but thought he had got some for his mom. Then I went towards the bedroom and saw finally saw them.

Saturday we got up about 7:30 or so, Lee had to go do some work with his boss for a few hours. So I decided to call the dog groomer and go with him. I dropped Lee off at his boss' house and then headed over to the dog groomer, dropped Bowser off and then went to the job Lee was working on. He was cutting seams in some concrete they poured the day before (probably about 10k worth of concrete, no kidding its like 110 a yard here now) so it won't crack. So I had a movie I rented that I hadn't finished yet (slumdog millionaire) so that kept me occupied. Then off we went to town waiting for Bowser to get done. Took them like 3 hours. We went to the hunting/gun store we both like, then I persuaded him to take me to hobby lobby, hehe. I got some GREAT stuff there. I have a really pretty frame that I have been wanting to put up, so I got another picture that is similar to it, and then a shelf and some gorgeous flowers for under 20 bucks! So excited to put them up. Just gotta get some different hanger things. I'm gonna put them in my dining room.

Then we went to a few other stores and finally Bowser was done. Went and got him and headed home. Lee had said something bout going to the Bass Pro Shop that day, so we took Bowser home, loaded up the lawn mower and went and mowed the church yard. Came back home AGAIN and got ready to head up to the Bass Pro Shop. We love that place. It has a feeling of being a long ways from home, but is only about an hour, and its got the neatest stuff in there. We can spend 2 hours in there easy. And we were so good, didn't buy anything! ;) Although Lee tried on some camo coveralls that are just awesome. They can also be turned inside out to be just brown, so he could wear them to work and hunt in them. They're insulated and he said they are really comfy. About a 100 bucks for them, so he might have to wait for his birthday, hehe.

Then we headed home and Sunday was church. It was a great service this weekend, our choir song we sang got me so worked up that I actually was crying a little bit, that is not usual for me. It is called Worthy Is The Lamb, and He is SO worthy. It works me up every time, I just love it. Its an indescribable feeling. I'm getting teary thinking about it now! God is so good. And Preachers message was just great.

I kinda wanted to go to the b-ham Barons baseball game, but we decided to just go get some groceries and a movie and head home. That was fun, we watched Duplicity, good couples movie.
Before we did that we put out another bag of cracked corn for the doves out in the pasture. We saw quite a few out there! Yeah! I think the cooler weather is bringing them in. Opening day is Saturday! Which is also the day after my grandma from AZ flies in to visit, and the day of my nieces bd party, AND the first day of college football. VERY IMPORTANT in this state, lol. Gonna be a busy weekend! I'm driving to b-ham with the mother to pick grandma up. She doesn't like driving down there. Got the handy dandy GPS to help us out!

Sigh, I'm kinda wanting to get out of here and get off the same time as Lee, 2:30. But I will prolly have to be here until 4. Boo. Yawwnn. So I guess I will quit boring yall and go.

At The Shop

Well its Monday again, about 2 o clock, nothing for me to do. It is SO hot today, its not much cooler in here either. There is a wall air conditioner and a fan, but they are not enough to keep it cool in here today! At least I'm not sweating!

So got an event tomarrow, one I'm so not looking forward to. The OBGYN. :shudder: I really hate going there. This will be my first 'examination', yeah, I've gotten away with it for 3 years, but she flat out refused to fill my birth control this time until I came in. GREAT. Boo. So I'm trying not to think about it so I don't get nervous. I know its not THAT bad, but its bad enough! I'm also kinda worried about the money. I DID have a hundred saved up, but that went, as usual. So I'm hoping to get an advance on my money here with dad for this week and next. He paid me last week, so hopefully he is planning on paying me this week too.

Mortage has to be paid this week. And I need to pay another loan as well. And the money is just dwindling away. Lee is going to do some sidework this week, but he can't do it if it is raining, and there is a chance every day this week, GREAT. Oh well, I'm putting it in Gods hands, He will get us through.

So the sea doo is running again! We've took it out twice now, does great. Well it did start smoking a LOT when I first took it out, so I let Lee get on and he said its just because its a 2 stroke motor and it hadn't been run in awhile. Otay.

Thinking about taking it out this afternoon again, seems to be a Monday tradition, lol, its so deserted there and we can swim at the dock and stuff. Last week we took the little BIL, he liked that. Then got some b-que from the rinky dink local place and got a movie to watch. It was fun. Then we took it out Thurs night. Invited the sis in law and bro and had dinner after with a movie. Another fun night!

So lots of crazy stuff going on right now at the shop. My dad had two car lifts taken out of the cement in his shop, so he could put bigger/better ones in. Well for those guys to do that, they have to cut up the cement and then jack hammer it out. REALLY REALLY loud and annoying. Add to that, there are guys on the other lift they took out already, putting in gravel and concrete to fill in the hole. Then my uncle is here, and two other guys (customers) waiting on dad to help them. Craziness!! Oh! And I just looked out the window, the tool truck guy is here, geesh.

So yesterday we did some more geocaching. We found it this time! So far we were 1 for 4 or 5, lol. But Lee Lee found it! I was too busy trying to get good pictures of the HUGE waterfall near it. Was really neat!


I never knew this was here till I found it on the geocaching website. Its not far from our house either. Really close to our house we rented previous to the house we bought that we live in now.

Gah I look terrible, it was SO MUGGY we were dripping, just dripping sweat. The humidity must have bee like 150%! Lee looks cute of course, he always does!

Here's a short video of the waterfall:



So it was fun, but we did get in a few arguments, one because he didnt want to listen to the gps (or me) when I told him about a road to go down, then said I had said this, and I hadn't, yada yada. Then he didn't want to drive through a mud hole with his tuck cause he just spent 10$ at the car wash, (which I told him not to use anyway, wash it yourself!!) then the gps was confusing us so we were getting ill, haha. Such meaningless stuff. Stupid when you think about it now, but not at the time! We'll learn.

So not much else going on. Wish me luck at the drs tomarrow, ughhh. And lets hope I'm not pregnant because I've been off the pill all month, heh.

Adios!
