Fun, Exciting Weekend!

Okay, I had a fun & exciting weekend.
Review...

Thursday after work: went to visit my dad & grandparents. Dad came in for Papa's birthday & he stayed at their house. We took Pop out to dinner at Rockfish. Had a wonderful time.

Friday... I barely remember Friday night....oh wait, I started watching that movie "White Chicks". Pretty dumb. I'm on a roll picking stupid movies lately.

Saturday... woke up...picked up a ton of pecans. Straightened the house a bit...and then Damon & I took some furniture to my grandparents house. Had lunch with Dad. Pop & Gammy sent us home with some food: Roast Beef Hash, Cabbage, & Corn Bread. Had that for supper & it was very good!!!
Sat on the front porch in our rocking chairs.
Went to Aunt Loraine's & took her & Uncle Glynn some pecans.
Went to Home Depot. Bought stuff to work on the kitchen. Bought a chiminea. Came home, Damon set up the chiminea. Then we sat on the back porch. I was shelling pecans & we tried to enjoy the fire. Smoked ourselves off our own porch!!! We dont know what we did wrong...but we've narrowed it down to the following: lit a fire in the chiminea while it was on a covered patio, lit the fire while it was incredibly humid outside, and the wood itself may have been damp. There you go. We smoke ourselves off our patio.

Sunday.... woke up at 6 in the morning. Spring Forward, Fall Back. Cleaned house. Then, Jessica & Blaine came over & brought Boaz. I cant wait to have a baby!!! Boaz is 13 months old & he walks & smiles & laughs, and loves animals! And...I just cant believe how light his hair is. Again, let me just say, I cant wait to have a baby!!!
Sunday after they left, we returned to our rocking chairs on the front porch. Sat there for a while & watched the rain. Then we watched a little TV & I shelled pecans.

...shelling pecans. First of all, I have a ton of pecans. I have a whole paper sack full. And finally, I have enough for a pie, maybe even 2. :)
My little thumbs are sore though.

Halloween Night: no big plans. We stayed @ home & watched "Desperate Housewives". I tell you, I cant get enough of that show!!!!

What's for dinner tonight: Meatloaf (dont knock it! Damon & I both like it!), Lady Cream Peas, not sure what other side I'll make yet. I think I'll stop at the grocery store & pick up a dessert. Damon & I had some blackberry cobbler that my grandmother sent us on Saturday. It was so good. We were both craving more!!!
I'm excited about making dinner tonight because I decided to do it. Damon has not yet said to me "What do you want to do for dinner?". See, the question has evolved from "What's for dinner." I got so tired of hearing that question that I threw the biggest fit of our married life thus far, and he's changed it. I am not stupid. I realize that it's the same question....and it's working my nerves too. I feel a fit coming on. Usually if he asks that, my response is, "I dont know, I'm not really that hungry" or "I'll just have whatever you're having." Teeheehee... only the fun & games of newlyweds! One of these days we'll figure out a dinner system. One of these days....

Oh, on Friday afternoon, I noticed my rose bushes blooming! I only have 2, and they are small...and, next year I am going to get more rose bushes. I need a variety, you know?? Anyway....I wasnt even sure what color these would be. They are pink. Which happens to match the begonias we have planted. So on Friday I pulled into the drive way & as I was walking to the house, I saw the 4 blooms on one bush & buds on the other. By Sunday, they both bloomed! I'm so excited.

Okay, I've got to get to work now. Seems like a busy morning in the ER. :(
