Hey Y'all! Happy Tuesday! I hope your week is off to a great start. I am recapping last week and this past weekend.
Yesterday, I felt rough. I woke up with a low grade fever and my throat was so sore. I felt like I was swallowing nails. As the day went on, I did start to feel a little bit better but I took a Benadryl and went to bed super early.
Monday, December 9th-
We got home from
NYC at 12:45 am and in bed a little after 1AM. Ben's alarm was set for 4AM because he needed to leave for the office 4:40-4:45. I felt like I had just closed my eyes when his alarm went off. I did get a little more sleep before waking Ella up but y'all I felt like a walking zombie for most of the day. I didn't go workout. I caught up on my reading, then got ready, and headed to the bank for FFA and Publix for some groceries, return Ian's biology book, then home to do a clean sweep of the house, unpack, and laundry. I put chicken in the crockpot for fajita chicken for dinner.
After dinner, I cleaned up, showered, and crashed.
I did snap this picture of Ben watching a school board meeting were they won a bid! He was so happy. and would be pissed that I posted it on the blog but he doesn't read this little space of mine so what he doesn't know wont' hurt him.....😂
Tuesday, December 10th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella to school, and then I went to work out. Ian took his last final for the semester and came home. I made a breakfast casserole for the week, did laundry, blogged, and found Trixie like this....
Ben got home late and crashed so the kids and I ate spaghetti for dinner. Ella went to Addison's basketball with 2 other girls in Jackson county. I cleaned up, chilled, and finally went to sleep.
However, Ian told Ben and I that he does not want to return to LaGrange in the spring. He wants to stay home and go to VSU online, so we have started that process.
Wednesday, December 11th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella to school, Ian woke up to call his LC golf coach to let him know that he will not be returning in January. Then he called the college to start the withdrawal process. He drove back to LaGrange to get the last few items in his dorm and to return his keys. I am a little sad but I am not going to miss that tuition fee.
Meanwhile, I had an appointment at the spa to use my last treatment from my membership that the kids and Ben gave me last year for Christmas.
I am going to miss going to the spa so frequently!
When I was leaving the spa, I spotted a cardinal!
I got home put the towels in the dryer, cleaned out the fridge, made tacos for dinner, cleaned up, showered and cleaned the shower while I was in it!! I put on my PJ's, Ben crashed, and I curled up on the couch with wine and my book.
Thursday, December 12th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella to school, I went to workout from 8-9, home to QUICKLY get ready for my 10am hair appointment. I went to lunch at Barberitos, then to Target and Publix for a few things at each.
By 4pm, Trixie was over the day and ready for bed! HA
We ended up having leftovers for dinner, I cleaned up, showered, and chilled before crashing.
Friday, December 13th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella to school, then I hopped on a WW online meeting. Then I got ready, headed to the post office to mail Toby a package all the way in Saudi Arabia. It will be his first Christmas away from home. So I met his mama at El Real for a big ole margarita and fajitas for lunch. Then we did a little Christmas shopping.
Talia snapped some pictures of me and my new
Tieks.
I got home from shopping, did a few things around the house, and then me, Ben, Ian, and Kathryn headed to Firehouse Subs for dinner before we went to Addison's basketball game.
We left after the 1st quarter of the boys game. Got home, washed my face, showered, and crashed.
Saturday, December 14th-
My guys headed to a local course to play golf and they were home by lunch. So I enjoyed a slow morning, ran to Publix to get stuff for said lunch and sides for dinner.
We made sandwiches for lunch. My guys curled up to watch VSU football. I headed to the craft room to finally finish cleaning it up and the closet. I also made a list of items to photograph to sell in the
Etsy shop and a list of items that I have in stock to make.
I did a little online Christmas shopping and updated the Christmas list once again.
We chilled for the rest of the evening and all crashed.
Sunday, December 15th-
I was up early and it was just me and the dogs. The rest of my people slept in. I watched church online. Ben finally got up and went to Waffle House for breakfast and Target for a few items. I got ready and headed to Publix to get stuff for a cookie exchange. Around 1:50, I headed to Susanne's for a fun afternoon while Ian and Kathryn ran errands and Ben and Ella watched Grumpy Old Men and then Grumpier Old Men.
I got home around 5pm, did a few house chores, typed a blog post, showered, and curled up on the couch to read and drink a glass of wine!
Cheers to a new week friends!!
