No we're not hunting wabbits - we're making sure Bubba stays asleep for a while. I heard him come home - NO idea what time that was as I was examining the inside of my eyelids at the time - I saw it was him I think, mumbled something in his general direction and the next thing I know I'm getting the paw scrapping layers of skin off coupled with the cold wet nose of "get up now".
That is called the Shelby wake up call. She at least let me sleep in 45 minutes past her usual. She's loving like that. So I'm up, the dogs are tended, I've paid the bills, putzed on the computer, just pulled up quicken and realized I haven't updated the checkbook on the computer in a month! Yikes. Not like me - but in my defense this has been a bit of a busy month.
I got a few things done last night - I got A LOT accomplished before I got home, made a Trader Joe's run, mostly I went for 3 things came out with more... per usual. Got my ham for Easter and did a Target run and got my new vacuum cleaner - now it's still in the box, the receipt is at the ready - because I can promise you Bubba will find a way to make the old one work. Then I'll make him return the darn thing. Now in my defense I didn't buy the most expensive one - I went middle of the road, read a few on line reviews and figured this was a pretty good buy. Plus my mother in law is due in Sunday and the carpets need "de-puppied" (dirt, hair, general dog-ness) It's my back up plan.
I've paid the bills, now I need to make a menu, a shopping list and do coupons. Cripes I sound almost organized. I mean really. I came home, clean off the dining room table, and the coffee table (I still had Christmas cards on there!!) Rearranged some knick-knack kind of things finally figured out what I wanted on my new decorative shelves in my bed room, and need to hang my pictures, which then reminded me to go look for the coupons, which I have done and printed. I even cleaned out the fridge and put out the trash! OMG even.
Then I opened my bottle of $4.95 wine from Trader Joe's and enjoyed a glass with DVR'ed shows from last night - and mellowed out. I also put 2 more bottles in the fridge for Sunday - you can't beat the price and it's good!! And no - it doesn't have a screw top! A real live cork. That is why you shop in VA. Beer and wine in the grocery stores, Target... oh yeah babe.
All right - Aunt Ing the wonder woman (as in I wonder what idiocy we'll do today) is off to complete her menu, find a recipe and make a shopping list with coupons. Oh yeah and make a cup of something caffeinated. It's my thing. Enjoy this glorious Saturday and we'll chat later... who knows what fun Bubba is going to bring to the party.
