Yeah yeah yeah...

Three days and not talk... sorry my brain had a hard time catching up. We left the deep south, very nice flight, great weather home, Wednesday was 9/10's fab-o including an afternoon massage and home - comfy and with the pups... life was great.

Of course the fly in the soup was work - got an email says I have to log on and deal with stuff and it comes into my email at 5:30 pm... so logged on, cooked dinner, made Bubba happy and moved on with my night.

A fun find when I got home Wednesday was the dishwasher apparently darling Bubba in a fit of "she's not here" just tossed whatever was in the sink into the dishwasher regardless of whether or not it fit, belonged in there or would melt if he got the idea to start the darn thing up... since that wasn't an option we dodged that bullet. So I unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher made dinner and enjoyed a quiet night at home. The house wasn't much of a mess as the cleaning lady was in the day before I got home... it's all good.

Thursday was a work day and for some reason very very busy, meetings and follow up and bla bla bla... left late to avoid some traffic - it work mostly. Got home tossed dinner his way, did the dishes but even with a full dishwasher the sink is still full... back at it...

Now Friday - ah Friday. Work from home day, no messing with traffic day - got a surprise phone call from a friend day... had lunch with her.. it was all good - a bit of gossip and a bit of lunch it was super fab...

Now Bubba calls and wants to do something fun this weekend... after we trim trees. Yeah. The day we are trimming trees will be the nice day - frankly I'm tired of going and doing and was looking forward to home time and perhaps a movie. He wanted to go to an amusement park - on July 4th weekend in 90 degree heat -- this from a man who doesn't like crowds... seriously.

So I mentioned the above - ok well I shot down the amusement park idea in a blaze of glory - no freaken way... I don't want to bike around the river all the cool skinny people do that and I don't want to be the fat chick on the bike-- which I will be AND when I can't keep up with Mr. I have to peddle really really really fast for no reason - he'll get cranky and it's a wasted day. I wanted to walk with the dogs in the woods and he reminded me of Shelby's elbow and yeah she probably couldn't take that but I don't want the dogs locked up all weekend either - I want to be home...

Of course the whole time I'm working I was "sitting on my lazy fanny" so why am I tired? Really. He's allowed to be tired with his travel and work schedule as apparently he must jog in place the entire time -- me not so much. So now I have to come up with something to do this weekend... yeah Friday afternoon... I want to be home and mellow the F-- out. But as that isn't happening I've come up with a few ideas. All of which are going to be hot and crowded because IT'S FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND - dimwad.

The other issue that came flaming out this weekend was the charge on the credit card for 2 new gowns... I paid for two 130.00 TOTAL - not a piece Total... and doesn't sir tight wad just pitch a fit and three quarters I won't quote it's really not worth the effort. But it's not like I don't wear this stuff...and wear it often. His father says nothing as his wife is trying desperately to spend him into the poor house - or maybe that is why he is such a skin flint with me. And yet I managed to pay our bills on time, and still sock a little away so when HIS family comes to call - we're available. I also work full time - and the last 2 weeks WITH PAID OVERTIME. I earned it I spent it - deal with it.

and on that note - I didn't make it to the manicurist today - perhaps Monday I will go and be pampered... after all he's got a massage Saturday morning. Yes I had one Wednesday but that was work related - I needed it. ;-)

We are going out for happy hour with the neighbors... so that is a good start - heaven only knows what we'll come up with for the rest of the weekend... was it too much to ask for to stay home and mellow out? I suppose it was. Signing off... we'll talk more later I'm sure.
