As I am want to say, it's a good thing to keep busy, and in many cases, Bubba free. Last week was busy, even with a day off in the middle. I cooked dinner with our friends and adopted nephew G. All is good, well and nothing terribly unusual. Ah, white bread suburban. I am what I am.
Boring is NOT underrated. Anymore.
So a dinner shopped, prepped, cooked and cleaned up. Yes! Bubba did help. I know... ANY way... it was a great day.
Thursday and Friday were work days, with bitter cold on Friday and 3 inches of freaking snow on my car. Cleaning off your car at o-dark-30 is no fun - no matter how you slice it.
I shopped for the lodge luncheon on Saturday, Bubba objected, strongly which just ticks me off but with 3 days and the event over... its over. He's a dork.
Friday was good, got the soup needed, cleaned my kitchen and enjoyed a massage... OH so good.
Saturday dawned, I got moving, felt SO guilty because Shelby wanted to come along... for two cents I would have taken her, but this was a big meeting, so she stayed home with Bubba, and then enjoyed some quality nap time while we were gone.
We got home, I putzed, and put Christmas away, I emptied out 9/10's of the closet and reorganized everything, I boxed more stuff, wrapped things better, no more bags of stuff, I recycled a lot, tossed away some stuff, and generally that closet just looks about 100% better. It was a great sense of accomplishment.
We had the neighbors over last night for a rousing game of powergrid... my neighbor is getting cocky he's won three games in a row. Bubba's competitive streak is screaming - we'll play again soon I fear.. and it will be intense. Those games are fun.
Sunday morning dawned, it was cold, hot, cold, warm, hot, cold... yeah still flashing. We got moving, went to Bob Evans' for breakfast, Bubba is now on a healthy kick. He didn't get great news at the doctor's his cholesterol and triglycerides are up. He had fruit and nut pancakes with sugar free syrup. Yeah. I had an egg with gravy and half a biscuit. I knew was going to be up and down stairs today. And I was, I cleaned up my bedroom, loaded all the Christmas gifts that were dumped and left then the two baskets of clean clothes then reloaded with the laundry that needed done, got that down stairs, its now in progress, Shelby is sleeping in her corner, Bubba is getting a massage, and I'm watching football, tried to pull up the penguins game, seriously easier to pull up the Steelers game... whatever.
We also went to the oober grocery store after breakfast, needed chicken, Bubba needed cereal, we ended up with some other stuff... I love that store.
So home and busy, now enjoying peace and quiet. It will end all too soon...
Washer is done, off to deal with that, and enjoy some quality reading time.
Like I said - take the good days when they come!
