MinnesotanMommy's Journal

Wow! It's been busy busy here! My sister came to visit us from over in Ohio! It was an awesome time. I really enjoyed her home again! To little time, but at least I got some time with her! I love having her home! We sat in Perkin's eating and texting...she was busy telling me how the toilets in MN are shorter then the ones in Ohio...funny times. You had to be there I think. It was great tho. We went shopping after we ate out and Carl and I got a 4" memory foam matress for our bed and we each got a memory foam pillow and I so totally love them!

Up to current day...not doing so hot on my exercising regularly goal...well, am as of today, but before not so hot. LOL. I did go for one walk one day when it was in the 40's here. It was chilly with the breeze, but not so terrible that I couldn't make a fair distance. Though, okay, I should back up. We went to my aunt's wedding last night in Brookly Park. The hotel was in Maple Grove. The hotel was AWESOME! I totally loved it! It had a water park, Carl and Ethan went and hung out in there with my cousin and her son. While they did that, I hooked up in the fitness center. They had treadmills and I was so psyched! I did a mile last night and almost a mile this morning before we left. I woulda done a full mile this morning, or more, but I had drank coffee before I went and it kinda had me ready to run to the bathroom as a result. LOL. So, with that said, I didn't get my full mile long walk in. But I got nearly a mile in, so I'm not complaining. So two days in a row of exercise...oh if only I could afford a treadmill. Oh well. In good time. I had to go to the clinic when I get home to town today for a stupid under the stomach skin yeast infection that won't go away again. Got another pill for that. But, I guess if the topical creams won't work, we have to pull out the big guns. I try not to resort to that but if I don't get rid of it, I'll be miserable in a couple of days! No way I'm gonna be that miserable. I know what happens if I don't get rid of them within a few days! But, that's done. Then we had lunch, then to the gas station for a fill and through the car wash cuz our van was so super dirty! Umm...not a whole lot else going on. I'ma go lay in bed on my comfy memory foam and just relax and read for a while or maybe just lay there and stare at the walls or something. LOL. Just wanna relax and do NOTHING for a little bit.

Oh, we got our FREE new cell phones. Dude, they are expensive...we got the invoice and I saw the price on both of them and holy cow is it spendy had we paid for them! But, because our cell company is changing to Verizon, we needed new phones to keep with the picture messaging. They're nice phones and I'll enjoy tinkering with them. I have them charging now, then I'll work on entering all our phone numbers. I'm not going to the cell company to have them do it when they're crazy busy lately! No way I'm sitting and waiting for someone to help me do something that would take them maybe two minutes per phone, when I sit at home most of the week doing nothing but housework and have idle time to just enter the names and numbers myself. It'll keep me busy.

But, I'ma go take my calcium and go relax....ah...my bed! Yay! I did thoroughly enjoy my time away, but I'd LOVE to get a time alone with Carl at a hotel sometime. That would be so fun to! Maybe I can talk him into it for our anniversary. Nothing special about our upcoming anniversary in October, it's just #7 for us...but I've been trying to get him to a hotel for our anniversary for a while now. Since our 5th. LOL. I'll keep trying. I don't give up. Haha. I may let him put it off, but I don't give totally up on something that fun!

I'm just washing laundry from our trip. Lots of it! Plus I have the regular laundry to catch up on. Only a load of it to do, but still...I hate folding and putting away clothes.

So, now you know what's up, up to date for the most part, summarized. :) Have a beautiful day my friends!
