Our Married Life

Brian decided to surprise me a gift and it was the first gift me bought me as a husband. As sweet as the gesture was and as cute as it was, I was a bit surprised that he gave me an APRON! Haha, don’t think for once I will be your little housewife.

It’s a darn cute apron though, and I love it. It’s the one below and it’s embroidered with my name in pink at the top. Love it…

I’ve been wanting one just because I hate getting splattered with crap while cooking, and I am a messy cook. But it’s too pretty to wear and get stained. Anyway, he got it from Domistyle which was featured on weddingbee.

I worked till 7pm again on Friday. Hopefully that’s my last one. What really pissed me off, was that I sat around for an hour for nothing.

I love this weather. This weekend Brian and I went shopping for some fall clothes. He of course always comes home with more stuff than me. I did get the jacket I was hoping to find. Yesterday I stopped by DSW, bc I LOVE shoes, and found the two cutest pairs. A pair of dark brown pumps for when I dress up and some really really cute peep toe pumps with stacked heels that were oh so comfy. Of course I felt guilty and left emptyhanded. But boy did I want those peep toe shoes. I may have to just go back and get them. Unfortunately I can’t really justify my purchases. A. I don’t need dressy shoes because work is casual. B. I have way too many pairs of shoes and don’t wear half of them. C. I just bought a pair of brown sandals last week. BUT, those are sandals and I need fall shoes.

Anyway…Brian set up a new blog for me. www.ourmarriedlife.com. So go there to find all the posts. I need to get the layout redesigned, the one up there currently is a bit drab…maybe that just describes our married life…hehe.

Reesey’s doing ok, she needs a bath still, and I think we say that everytime. Maybe we should just give her one. Other than that, she’s still a sweetie. Brian’s been a little busy with work as usual. I think he nearly died while watching the longhorn game. Silly man.

I am determined to finish my album this weekend. I need to in order to get the 50% off special pricing from mypublisher.com.

Anyway, I still peruse other people’s wedding pictures, and I can’t help but be jealous. UGH. Not that ours weren’t good, but each set of photos I see have their own unique quality and I wish mine had every single one of them. Maybe I should stop looking…

I made it to the gym twice already this weekend. Yay, we’re starting to get back on track, sorta. I ran 2 miles today. I’m still sore from my weight class on Monday. My hamstrings hurt from all those lunges, and biceps are a little sore. I was supposed to go this morning with Brian, but just couldn’t make it out of bed, so I went after work instead. It got really cold this evening. I’m loving this weather, I hope it stays cool, unfortunately I think we’ll have a mild winter.

Brian might be going out of town in a couple weeks. That’s not fair, he’s not allowed to go on work trips, that’s my job! He’ll be gone for a whole week, so I don’t know what I’m gonna do with myself all week, play with Reesey??? She’ll be sooo bored. She usually sits by the door when it’s just me and her, silly dog. She doesn’t love me, sniff.

Anyway, it’s been a light week this week, but next week will be quite hectic. Crap.

OMG, I’ve been dreading this training session for work all week. I finally survived. I think they were rather bored with me. But hell, I would be boring too if I was shooting darts blindly. I definitely need to study it up a bit to get better at this, but thankfully I don’t have to do much of it. Well now that this is over, I’ve got 2 more conference calls today before I call it a day, one of them being a “firedrill”. Ugh.

Hmm, what to make for dinner tonight? I think Brian will/might be working late again, poo.

Here’s the deal. I have way too many clothes. I don’t have any more closet space, or maybe I do, I’m just bad at organizing stuff. I keep going through junk and thinking about giving some away, but then after thinking about it, I tell myself, well maybe one day I’ll wear it. I just need to give it up! Same goes with the shoes. I wear ONE pair of shoes to work, everyday. Sometimes I add in flip flops. There are some dress shoes that I have that I may need to wear when I have to dress up, but there are some pairs that I haven’t worn or thought about wearing in years.

Brian had to get his car fixed the other week. 900 bucks gone. I had mine fixed a couple weeks ago 500 bucks gone. UGH. I think we both had the same issue too, something causing the coolant to leak.

I should be working on the album but I’m just not in the mood. I’m a bit brain dead today. Here’s a sample…

but I’m still at work….poo. It’s already 10 past 6 dangit.

I think we plan on seeing The Departure sometime this weekend. It’s supposed to be good. Well it’s 6:22 and I’m still here.

Edit: I didn’t get home till 7:45 last night. I think I passed out asleep at 9pm or maybe even before that.

I can’t take this anymore. My head feels like it wants to explode. What’s the best remedy for sinus infections? I seriously need to get myself to a doctor. I hate this weather, when is it going to get cooler?? And can someone one please tell me what Coremetric tags are???

Today was not a good day. I’m ready for bed and the weekend.

Oh yeah. The thank you cards are in the mail. Finally! I’ve got 10 more I need to find addresses for. I’ll get to that soon, I hope.

Weekend update.

Finally a weekend where we don’t have to do anything. It was nice. Friday was Reesey’s 3rd birthday. She’s an adult dog now! Of course we forgot until last night. We went and saw the Illusionist on Friday. It was a good movie, but I barely stayed awake for it. We’re much too old to be out past 10pm. I’m sure the fact that two margaritas had something to do with me being exhausted. But it was such a long week at work.

On Saturday I got a call from my mother. Her older brother, my uncle, passed away. I’ve never met him, but it’s sad to see my mother upset. Please pray for her and our family. I guess she’s just upset that she can’t be there in Cambodia.

Anyway, I spent most of the weekend working on our album. It’s turning out quite well. Although I do need to add a bit of artistic detailing to them. So I’ve done 7 out of the 20 pages. Well I’m not sure. The album contains 20 pages, but mine will be front and back so is it 40 pages?? If so, I’ve got a ton of work to do…
