1. Veteran's Day
For those of you here in the United States, (as if I have a large, international following...) yesterday was Veteran's Day. Hubs is a veteran so of course, we celebrated! I had professional development for work in the morning and I brought him home a very special "veteran's day" donut from my training. For dinner, a local restaurant, The Horseshoe Grille had a Veteran's Day special where veterans could get a free entree! Hubs, his friend T (who is also a veteran) and I all went and we just had to pay for my meal! Hubs went all out and ordered one of the most expensive things on the menu, a full rack of ribs!
2. Sleep Talking Man
Awhile back I found a hilarious blog called Sleep Talking Man. This blog is written by a women whose husband says truly absurd things in his sleep just about every night. I think the reason I find this blog so funny is because, I too, have a Sleep Talking Man on my hands. Yes, Hubs is a sleep talker. Big time. While he doesn't say such vulgar things as the STM from the blog, I have heard some gems:
Me: [I wake up to the sound of Hubs rummaging through the closet] What are you doing? [at this point I think he is awake and just looking for something in the closet.]
Hubs: WHAT?!?!?!
Me: [realizing that he is rummaging through my side of the closet so he must be asleep.] What are you looking for?
Hubs: WHAT?!
Me: come back to bed.
Hubs: NO! (he gets kind of angry when he is confused and asleep.)
Me: What are you looking for?
Hubs: THE BRIDGE! (duh!)
Me: What?!
Hubs: THE BRIDGE!!!!
Me: Come back to bed.
Hubs: ughhh [begrudgingly heads back to bed] BUT HOW AM I GOING TO BUILD THE BRIDGE!?!?
Another night I wake up to Hubs crawling all around the bed
Me: What are you doing?
Hubs: I'm setting up the map.
Another night I awake frightened to Hubs yelling "I'M A BEAST!!!" In his defense, he says he had a dream that he was playing video games with his brothers and that is apparently something they yell when to do well.
3. Wedding Pictures
Our wedding was July 10 and we received our professional pictures about a month later. I am just finally doing something with them now. I ordered prints of them all a few days ago and for the past few weeks have been working on parent albums (sorry parents! they're coming!)
I wondered to myself why, after being so on top of all the wedding planning details, was I slacking in these post wedding projects? I genuinely loved working on all the projects and details that were involved in planning the wedding but these post wedding projects have taken me forever to complete and sometimes seem more like a hassle than a fun project. I've realized it is because I am just enjoying being married. For 10 months of planning we were excited to be doing things for our "big special day." Now, the wedding has come and gone and we are finally married. and we are so glad. I love coming home every day to Hubs and knowing that we'll always be there for each other. We love spending time together no matter what we are doing and planning our future together.
So it's not that I don't appreciate all of our wedding photos. I love looking at all of them and reminiscing about our wedding day. It just seems like, ok, now the wedding is over, let's work on marriage. and I like that :)
4. CPR
Tomorrow, from 9-5:30 I will be in training for CPR and First Aid for work. I am not looking forward to this but I am letting you know that after 5:30 tomorrow, I can legally save your life.
5. Cake Wrecks
I honestly can't think of anything to write about so I thought I'd share another funny blog that I like looking at from time to time: Cake Wrecks.
Happy Friday!
