My dear friends,I just wanted to let my friends know that I haven't forgotten them.  lol  I usually don't get on DS much when my hubby is home.  He is off on Friday and Saturdays.  But the last 4 days have been so fun filled that I had to share.  lol  NOT!!!!But the last 4 days have been busier than usual.  But not all good busy.  Thursday evening I got a call from a police officer saying that they had my hubby and was going to take him to jail and that I needed to come get our truck off the side of the highway.  He had gotten a ticket in one of the little towns around us and didn't tell me and forgot about it.  So he missed the court date and here they immediately put a warrant out for your arrest.  It was an "Expired Tabs" ticket.  Not a big deal ticket unless you are stupid and forget about it.  So I had to get my daughter to take me to get our truck and them talk to a Bail Bondsman to get him out of jail.  In King County where I live you can't bail anyone out of jail after 10 in the evening, so I sat up all night talking to several bondsmen to see who could help me.  So in th morning the bonding out of jail thing was really messed up, because they had moved him to a different jail!!! So we were running all over town trying to figure out where he was.  Finally made it to the jail where he was and just barely made it before they were going to move him again!!  So did all the paperwork to get him out but they said it would take 2 to 4 hours for him to be released.  My daughter and I go grab a bite to eat cause I had been too stressed with the whole thing to eat.  And while I was gone they released him.  Took a half hour.  He didn't think that I was going to be there when he got out and didn't stick around to check.  We got back to the jail and found out that they had released him 15 minutes before.  We searched all over the justice center and couldn't find him.  Finally decided to go home.  I got home and he called from downtown Seattle, he was riding the bus home.  So got him home after spending the night and half a day in jail, and all is good.  Lesson learned on his part.Then Friday we had a birthday party to go to, was at a bar just up the street from us.  It was ok but the sound system for Karaoke was so bad it drove me nuts.  Spent much of the night outside in the smoking area to get away with it.  But the smoking area was actually pretty nice.  Had a heater and comfortable tables and chairs and when the clouds parted you could see all the stars.  It was under cover but the tent thingy had a clear roof so we could tell when it quit raining.  So all in all had a good time.  Saturday was fun but miserable.  lol  Met my mom in law at an outlet mall that is north of us.  My daughter drove since my hubby still has to go to court and doesn't have a valid license, but the heater motor went out in her car and it was freezing.  Met up with the mom in law and went to Jack in the Box for lunch.  I was so tired and foggy that I felt like I was in a bubble and they were talking outside of the bubble.  Strange feeling.  Got to the mall and it is an outside mall.  The kind where the halls are open air.  It was so cold.  Now my mom in law and I know how to shop leisurely, but my daughter only knows how to power shop.  Tried to keep up with her for a little bit but then gave up.  We spent 5 hours in the mall!!  But I did get quite a bit of my shopping done!!!  And some really cool stuff.  Finally my daughter had enough and we left only to go two blocks where hubby and daughter saw a Walmart.  lol  We don't have a Walmart close to us so we like to stop when we are close to one, but this time I could have skipped Walmart.  lol  So we stop and spend two hours there.  But... did get some more shopping done and other things we needed.  By the time we got home I was so sore and tired that my hubby had to help me in the house.  Didn't help that we still had a hour ride home in the car from Walmart.  By the time we get to my front door I was stiff from all the walking and then sitting in the car.     Hubby had to start his work week yesterday so the day for me was spent taking hot showers and trying to get rid of pain that was through the roof.  And kicking myself in the butt.  I know better than to push myself that much.  Still hurting today but a little better.  I could at least stagger out of bed for a bit.  This in not good because I have to get ready for my son to come for Christmas tomorrow.   Not much to do to get ready but want to get a few things done.  Oh well he is the most understanding of the three kids and doesn't mind if the house is a little messy, and I have laundry all over his bed.  He just helps me fold it and put it away.  He's a pretty cool 16 year old.  I'm sorry this is so long, but I didn't want my friends to thing that I had  forgotten them or disappeared.   My friends here are too important to me.  So if I get quiet on the weekends it is usually because I am being pampered by my hubby.  When he is home he likes me to stay in bed or on the couch and he takes care of me.  Even though he is a little forgetful (LMAO) I love him to death and he is so good to me.  Hope you all had a good weekend!!!!
