Sans pants.

Yesterday Joe got this brilliant idea to go crayfishing. (very redneck of us, right?) Anyways.. he had been fishing down in Spring Valley the other day, and saw lots and lots of crayfish and wanted to bring me to catch them. I was pretty excited, I've never gone crayfishing before.. therefore I didn't know what the job entailed. WELL let me tell you.. I'm not sure if I'll go again, lol. For starters, I'm scared of water. Not all out terrified or anything.. but I won't swim in water where I can't see the bottom. After the 2 nights of rain we got, this water was very, very murky. Plus it was a good foot higher than it was the day before when they went fishing. So here we are trudging along in water up to my waist (which was quite cold by the way) and I can't see the bottom at all, which is totally freaking me out. Plus you can't see the crayfish if the water isn't clear!! So after about 20 minutes walking upstream we turned back and called it day. Seeing as how we were soaking wet from the waist down, we stripped down to our skivvies and rode the whole way home with the windows down and sun shining :) I will always love Sundays..

Fun weekend w/ my baby cousin!

Icing on the cake

I've been trying to think of ways to repay my wonderful, loving husband for spending 2 long, grueling weeks fixing my damn car. I bought him 2 more seasons of The Simpsons (he's slowly collecting them.. and by slowly, I mean I buy them for him whenever I can.. which is not often) so I buy them on Amazon or Ebay for pretty cheap, but I still don't have money to do that very often.

But anyways, I decided I would surprise him and bring home Chipotle for dinner tonight as a special treat. The boy loves Chipotle almost as much as me :) So I go to Chipotle, order our burritos, pull the $13.00 that I know it's going to cost (okay, well it's $12.98, but who has exact change!) out of my pocket, trying to be prepared for the nice cashier.. and what does she say to me??

"$6.28 please."

I say "Oh well I had both those burritos, a steak and a veggie"

"I know, but we're going to buy one of your burritos for you today!"

WHAT?! How awesome is that!!

It was honestly the perfect ending to my work day :) and also the strawberry rhubarb pie I had waiting for me at home from Joe's mama.

So I guess this shout out goes to Chipotle.. thank you for making my great day even better!!

Happy

I woke up this morning feeling.. happy :)

I feel like it's been so long since I've actually felt happy, and not.. broken.

So I sure hope this feeling lasts.. because I'm not sure how much more of me my poor husband can take, lol.



Happy, happy Wednesday everyone!!!!! :)
