~The Weekend is Here and a Date with the Husband!~

                             

I’m patiently waiting for this day to be over.  It isn’t a bad day or anything like that, but I’m excitedly awaiting a date with my husband today!!

 

Yes, you read that correctly.  Derek and I actually get to have some free time (thanks to my parents) to go out on a date!  We are going to hit up a movie- “The Longest Yard”- and then go to dinner at The Olive Garden!

 

I truly can’t remember the last time I went to a movie.  It had to be before I got pregnant with Zachary.  I am not big on going to the movies for different reasons.  The prices being one, the fact that I seriously have the world’s smallest bladder, and having people that I don’t know sit next to me creeps me out!  I’m crazy I know.  But I rather rent the movie or buy it when it comes out and watch it at homeso I can pause it or come back to it later if need be.

 

But I’m going to enjoy myself today.  I’m determined to!  Derek and I seriously need some “adult time” and need to some what reconnect… The last time him and I went out all by ourselves (besides being in Sacramento for Zach- which doesn’t count!!) was the week before Zachary was born!  Can you believe that?  And that baby boy is almost 4 months old!!

 

So, its time!

 

Miss Rowan is feeling a little better.  Her rash did get a little bigger and started to blend in more.  It also started to spread down her arms and behind her knees… And up to her face!!  But she didn’t seem bothered by it.  I did end up calling the advice nurse yesterday afternoon to talk it over with her.  She said to just watch it and if it didn’t get better in a few days or actually got worse, then to have her come on in.  I didn’t get to see what it looked like this morning, because she was still sleeping when I left, but I’m hoping it was better.

 

Dinner over at the in-laws was really nice last night.  We had a turkey dinner (yes, just like thanksgiving) and ravioli’s and other stuff.  Yum Yum.  I did really well, until it was time for dessert when I had a brownie!

 

Eee-gads it was good.  No wonder I don’t keep sweets like that in my house.  I’d seriously eat a whole pan of brownies if there were at my house!  No kidding.

 

Get this.  It’s June 2nd, right?  Well, here in the Central Valley (California, ya’ll) by this date, it is usually pretty damn warm.  Somewhere around 90 degrees most days.  Well the forecast for this week has us in the mid 80’s and then this weekend it will be in the high 70’s.  Can you believe that crap!?!  I was totally getting used to the Heat and now I’m going to have to readjust to the mild weather and then when it finally gets hot again (God knows when!) I’ll have to readjust then!  Putting my body through hell, that’s what this weather is doing.

 

Argh.  Oh well, I guess its better to have cooler weather when you are working out in the yard and trying to exercise, huh? 

 

Yeah, we’ll be out in the yard again this weekend.  Derek is supposed to fix a few sprinklers and broken valves, while I’ll be planting some more flowers under our Redwoods on the side of the house.  Our main project will also include digging up the grass (including weeds) that was damaged last summer when we had our pool dug.  We’ll have to turn the dirt and either lay sod or throw some seed down to get the grass to grow!

 

That will be the biggest chore to do, but will truly make our yard… Not to mention all the wonderful landscaping that my parents have helped with – Love you Mom and Dad!!

 

Well, we are closing our month out today and I gotta go and do some work… Time to put my nose to the grindstone, ya know?

 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday… Just remember that the weekend (for all you Mon-Fri people) is only a day away!!  Mine is starting at 3pm today!!  Woo Hoo...
