Sometimes it seems like it not even worth it going on vacation because of the amount of work you have to catch up on when you get back! Yesterday was a pretty crazy day and today is another. I do feel like I am getting a lot done though so its nice to feel accomplished when I get home f/work.
My gym membership ended a couple weeks ago and since getting back into the swing of things I have not exercised at all.. which means I am not sleeping very well! I could not get out of bed this morning until 8.. which I have to be at work at 8 so yeah I rolled in about 9 today. Luckily I worked through lunch yesterday so I didnt miss anytime between my hours today and yesterday. I have been staying up till midnight and sleeping until 9 or 10 everyday on vacation so now when I have to wake up at 6 or 7 Im exhausted!
Dan made dinner last night, I taught him how to fry some cod in panko breadcrumbs and I had bought twice baked potatoes from the store so we ate those also. He did all the dishes. Hes such a good husband, making dinner and cleaning.. YES! I tried to get him to make turkey meatball stew in the crockpot today.. I wrote out all the directions for him to do it but I dont think he got the hint. Oh well, Ill do it before bed tonight or before work tomorrow if I wake up early! :)
Dan and I are SERIOUSLY cracking down on our spending. We have made a deal that we wouldnt go out to eat for a month... or 2 weeks at least lol. We are going to my friend Ambers wedding in Schaumburg in 2 weeks so we cant really avoid going out to eat then... sooo at least until then! We are living off of my salary for the most part, Dans finding small jobs here and there to make money.. but other than that we are on a serious budget. I dont really mind it too much, I enjoy cooking and when we were in Vegas we ate at restaraunts sooo much that Im sick of them.
This Saturday if you are out and about, come see Dan at Farmers Market. I dont know what time he will actually be there but he will be playing guitar for a couple hours! I think its an awesome way to make some extra cash and he will be doing what he loves. I hope its a good experience for him because he has the opportunity to do it every Saturday until October or November. He will also be playing at Buffys gallery next Saturday night!
I have to admit I take it for granted sometimes but Im really trying not to.. its so nice to have music in the house 24/7. Dan is constantly playing beautiful music on his guitar and I take it like every house is like that! I know its not and I feel so blessed to hear that everyday. :)
Last night I was so exhausted that I missed Healing Journey at church.. Im kind of bummed about it. I really wanted to go but I couldnt find the will to. I have it on Saturday also from 8-12 so at least I didnt miss it totally this week. The thing that sucks though is that Im soo behind on the journal work for it because I was vacationing and such. Arg.
Tonight I have small group, I cant wait! Im ready for some girl time. Its nice to hang out with a bunch of women and talk about whatever and they actually listen. I dont know what I would do without that, seriously. They are so supportive. I was a little sad I missed it last week because I was in Vegas but the time went so fast that it doesnt seem like much time has passed since the last small group!
My parents got back today from Jamaica, they were there two weeks. I talked to my mom and dad last night and they said they loved it. They went to a small resort in Negril, I think there was only like 40 rooms or something. They were the only Americans, everyone else was German, French, or Italian. I hope to go back to Jamaica some time soon, I havent went since my wedding. That is Dan and I's favorite place.. in the world. lol Granted, we havent been EVERYWHERE but out of all the places, we know we will have an amazing time there. I cant believe Im ready for another vacation already.. crap. lol
