'Celebrating' our 39th Anniversary....

 We got home from our trip in fair time... stopped on the way home to grab food from Culver's ... got home and unpacked... then did nothing the rest of the day.  Well, we watched a couple movies.  I finished a blanket I had started last week, and worked on an afghan for a Christmas gift.  We went to bed around 9:30PM, I think, and I fell right away to sleep.  Awakened around 2:30AM, I think I heard rain, but I haven't looked outside yet to see.  I couldn't get back to sleep, so prayed for each of my children and grandchildren, great grandchildren. Still couldn't go back to sleep and finally got up about 3:30AM.  This morning, every time I'd start reading, I'd get so sleepy I couldn't keep my eyes open.  So I have dozed quite a bit here in my chair.  Didn't get to read all I wanted to (couldn't stay awake), and since it is now 8AM figured I'd better write in here if I was going to at all.

I had mentioned to hubby us going to the gym today... I wonder if he will hold me to that reckless statement.  LOL  It won't hurt me, for sure!  I know I have gained weight this past month for tops that I could wear easily before, now seem to be a bit tight.  They are old shirts so they haven't shrunk.  It can only mean one thing.  I'm gaining weight.  Got to put a stop to that!  I mean, I look at the salads and think I should get one.... but, the lure of real food (not that salad isn't real food)... well, I do put lettuce on that sandwich so technically I AM eating a salad, right?

Well, that was interesting.  My brother-in-law just called me.... startled me at first because we never talk.  He was out to get my little sister a birthday present (which is Monday) and wanted to know what was the best iPad to buy.  I commented she may prefer a laptop... but he overtalked me saying 'she has a laptop and all she talks about is she needs an iPad'.  Ok... had to erase the rest of my comments.  I think he was going to Walmart to see what he could cheaply find.

Well, hubby remembered.  He peeked in cause he said he had heard me talking.  He said he had put a note on my mirror.... breakfast - home, change clothes - gym.  He did remember.  UGH.  What was I thinking?! Oh well, I do need to get moving.   I told him I was typing in my computer (he thinks I'm journaling) and that I will finish it and then get dressed).

Today is our 39th wedding anniversary.  He included my anniversary gift in with my birthday gift earlier this week - and that's fine - he spent too much.  I had bought him a laptop for his anniversary gift a few weeks ago, but I gave him a couple books this morning as well.  One he can possibly use with his men's study.  I don't think we will have much going today - I will have a shadow all day - so it's breakfast, home, change clothes, to the gym, back home... then church tonight.  

I took a peek at work emails yesterday and wished I hadn't.  Some issues are going on and I will see about getting online later today and see if I can figure out what it is.  Something about access for my new executive starting Monday.  I had made sure everything was complete before I left so don't know what it could be.  Need to figure it out.

Well, guess that I need to jump off - between the interruptions and my falling back to sleep - have not much to say.  Maybe tomorrow I can be more mentally active. :)

Have a blessed day!
