Crappy Friday Night

I was really looking forward to a relaxing Friday night. We were going to order a pizza and a movie. Well, that didn't happen. I have been sick with a cold for a whole week. I am now better, but when I recover from a cold I always buy a new toothbrush and wash my sheets right away. Well, it has also been getting colder so I decided to change out my Fall quilt for my winter feather down comfortable. So I decided to wash my king sized Fall quilt. Now I always go to the laundry Mat four times a year to use their big washer for my king sized quilts. But , smart me, decided to give it a whirl in my washer. Really really bad idea. It shook my washer so hard and at the end...did not spin all the water out. It was sopping wet. I could not even lift it out of the washer. We could not put it in the dryer or have a place to hang it. Water was just running off of it. We found a rubbermaid tub and went up to the laundry mat to dry it. Totally sucks. It also looks a little faded I think. It is brand new this Fall. It might just be my imagination. Never put a king sized quilt in your washer.

The good thing is I didn't break anything.

I will be spending Christmas a little different this year!

That's right boys and girls...on Christmas Day we will be going to the Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears game in Green Bay...........I will be doing the super bowl shuffle all the way up there!!!  (Even though I am sure my husband's team aka the Packers will beat me :( they are really good this year)

It will still be good.  The tickets are bought and the dog care has been taken care of...now I just need to book a hotel asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband got a deer this afternoon.  If you are not into hunting don't look any further.

I should be on pinterest

I just found something on pinterest that I came up with 2 years ago and have had in place in my home since then. It was an idea I came up with all by myself and I am surprised someone else had the same idea.

So I got a package in the mail today from photojojo.com. I bought my friend a Christmas present and if I spent $50 I would get free shipping so I bought my self something too. So basically I was expecting two items.

So I opened the package and got the invoice and reviewed it. There were 3 items listed. The white canon mug, the black canon mug, and something that said 'rawrrrrrrrrrrr'. I had no idea what rawrrrrrrrrrrr meant and I only ordered two things????


So I got my two items out that I bought and checked them over.


They are mugs that look like camera lens if you are curious.


And then left in the box was this.........hahaha ababa photojojo threw in a plastic dinosaur to be funny.


And it was funny.

BBrrrrrrrr! Is everyone staying warm?  I hope so, and to think we might be up to 68 degrees by the middle of next week.

Anywho,  days are just going so fast and I can't even keep up.  Here is what is going on in my neck of the woods:

Just finished being a Nielsen family, need to mail the booklet tomorrow.  The funny thing about it though is the fact that I am a major TV watcher, but I was a Nielsen family the one week in my whole life where I hardly watched any TV.

I am in charge of bringing pies to our family Thanksgiving.  What should I make?  We are not much into pumpkin pie, so I am going to be creative. 

I actually have my Christmas shopping list all organized and written out.  I now just need to find a day to go shopping.  I am going to take one day and wipe the whole list clean!  I will.  I actually had planned on Tuesday the 15th being the day, but I just got called in to work earlier today for the 15th.  So the 16th is going to be my one day Christmas shopping day.  I do want it all done by Thanksgiving.  I will however, keep Christmas in December only (except for the shopping) but starting Dec 1st it is game on.  Until then-no decorations, no music, no movies, nothing Christmas related until then!

Tomorrow I completely plan to stay in my p.j. all day.  I do not want to leave the house at all.  Is it weird that I look forward to a day where I do not have to do my make-up?

My husband is in complete deer hunting mode.  I hunted this morning and tomorrow morning, but he is also putting in 8hrs at work.  So with hunting and work, he is getting home really late.  I have barely seen him. 

I set a fun table for Sunday dinner just because....

Wow this week really just flew by.  I can't believe it is Saturday already!

Well Monday was the birthday: opened gifts, dinner, handed out candy. 

Wednesday my friend took me out to lunch for my birthday, we really had a blast talking and eating!

I worked Thursday and Friday so that made those days go fast. 

Any extra time I had this week, I watched old episodes of "The Brady Bunch".  That show is so cheesy that I love it.  Anyone remember the episode where they are building the house of cards and Marcia is wearing a charm bracelet.  She kept almost knocking things over with it?  Why didn't she just take it off, stupid (but cheesy hilarious) writing.  Love it!

I also did a little scrapbooking.

This morning I went out to brunch with my brothers and dad.  We also looked around Bass Pro Shop for a few minutes.

Now I am home just relaxing.  I probably with do a little scrapbooking and I need to get some thank you notes written.
