Shame on me!

I guess the ~Slacker Award~ goes to me when it comes to blogging.  I have been busy though with the job hunt and quilt making.

Still don't have a job yet but I did sell one of my quilts!  I also set up an Etsy account... You can see the link on the right side bar of my blog... ItsyBitsyQuilts :)  Go ahead... Take a look!

This quilt sold!!

Here are the other quilts I have completely finished and listed to sell...

I have decided to stick with crib/baby size quilts.  They are much funner (<--- Don't think that's a word, lol) to do when it comes to colors and patterns!

So as you can see, I've been busy.  I almost have another one done :)  Going to work on that today.

But, on a sad note, my boyfriend is out of town for a month... He left yesterday and I miss him so much already.  Although, if I keep myself busy with quilting then I won't think about it too much... Except for dinner time, bed time, packing his lunch, lol... Who am I kidding... I can't keep my mind off of him regardless of what I do!

I'm such a slacker...

I have been slacking on my blog here lately.  Yet, I've been extremely busy with life, lol.

Here is a short~but~sweet update on me (like anyone truly cares)

1 ~  I had a job interview last week.  I think it went good.  It was a group interview (first time for me, lol) so I was a little nervous but... We shall see!  Wish me luck all!  They aren't hiring right yet but they will be within the next few months.

2 ~  I've been quilting, quilting and quilting, lol.  I have another one done (pic coming soon) and another one in progress :)  Well, I guess I shouldn't say they are done.  Only the fronts are.  I still need to do the batting and the backing.

3 ~  I've been busy with housework (like always) and now starting to get busy with the yard work... Joy.  The weather was nice a while back but now it's gone to crap again.  Yard work, for now, can wait.  We did have quite the snow storm last week.  It actually broke one of our trees in the backyard... Good thing it didn't land on the house or the neighbors fence, lol!

The landlord will be coming over sometime to see about taking the whole tree down.  It would be wise considering it looks to be splitting into three sections... with the first section down.  The other two sections WILL hit the house and the neighbors fence.

4 ~  Still debating with Kris about the dogs... We talk about it, then we forget about it.  Progress is little.  So, looks like we are going to keep them and do our best to feed them and ourselves, lol.  Dogs come first to me though.  I would rather go hungry then to feed them.  They're like my kids :)

So, that's my update  :)  I've pretty much been slacking on my blog but I've been pretty busy with life.  I hope you all are doing great!

Doggie Dilemma

Kris and I are at a spot right now where times are though and money is tight.  We are considering giving our dogs away to loving homes.  I will be completely bummed if we do.  But at the same time, we would save a butt-load of money (monthly dog food bill is sky high!).

Here are the pros and cons with our dogs ~

Pros ~ Keeping both dogs...

• Our best friends (aside from each other)
• Always happy to see us
• Always keeping us happy to see them happy
• Fun to take to the park or for a truck ride
• Great walking buddies

Cons ~ Keeping both dogs...

• Way too expensive food and vet bills
• Dog hair!
• Our back yard is torn up 
• Not fair to the dogs for being in a little house with a little yard

This here is Ian.  He's the big dog and the one who sheds hair all over, lol.  He may be blonde but he's very smart and knows lots of tricks.  No, I'm not putting blondes down... A lot of them happen to be smart, lol.  He is 8 years (I believe) and pretty calm... At most times, lol.

This here is Zoey.  She's the controlling one.  She thinks she's the boss of everyTHING, lol.  She chases her tail when she gets mad and she likes to sit on Ian.  She's the easy one to manage (baths, dog hair, pretty calm).  She is around 15 months old.







Now, we've thought about keeping one (Zoey) but I don't find that fair.  We would only keep her over Ian because she's easy to take care of.  Baths are easy, she doesn't eat as much, she's smaller... Kris and I got her together.  She's OUR dog.  Ian is Kris's dog from before me.  Ian is an awesome dog and pretty much turned into MY dog.  He follows me around and lays by me... It's so cute, lol.

So, that's our doggie dilemma.  Keep one, keep both or give them both away to loving homes...

Best buds!

Coming up

My man is leaving for the weekend with a buddy.  They are going to his buddy's Dad's house.  I'm sure they are going to be doing manly things, lol.  I will stay home and do girly things :)

I plan on cranking up some music, dancing/singing around the house and being a complete dork!  It's been forever since I've done that and I must admit... I'm looking forward to it!

Benatar,  Lauper, Swift, Spears and Gaga... The weekend is ours!

Aside from being a dork, I would like to try to re-vamp my blog a little (if I can get smart enough to figure things out) and possibly do some deep cleaning.  Ok... I WILL do some deep cleaning since the messy love-of-my-life will be out of the way enjoying his manly weekend :)

I will miss Kris though.  Yeah, it's only going to be 3 days but we live together and do everything together.  But, I guess it would be good for us :)  I just know he's going to miss me like crazy (eye-roll)!

Well, I must go finish laundry and pack his bag... Have a great day all!

Sick and tired of being sick and tired

I started sneezing like mad last Thursday and on Friday, I woke up with a sore throat, stuffy nose and a cough.  Ugh... I hate having a cold!  I feel like I've been run over by a truck and left along side the road for dead!  And when I'm sick, all I want to do is curl up on the couch and sleep... But, I can't do that.  I have a house to keep clean and lunches to pack and dinners to cook... And, it's just my boyfriend and I!  These are the times when I miss living with mom, lol.  She would make me stay in bed and take care of me.

It sure is different when a man is sick though.  I make Kris stay warm, either in bed or on the couch.  I give him medicine and cater to his every need.  Plus, I still keep the house clean when he's sick.  But, when I'm sick, it's STILL me doing everything, lol.  What is up with that?  I guess it's true... A woman's job is never done!

Shrinkage, Overs and Smells... Oh my!

First of all...

Over or under?  That's the question.  Toilet paper should (and must) roll OVER for me.  It doesn't matter where I am, I will switch it if it's the wrong way.  My mothers house is totally wrong... I always have to correct her roll of toilet paper!  My boyfriend and I always argue about this topic, lol.  He's an 'under' man.  I'm an 'over' girl.  Total chaos in our bathrooms.  Toilet paper wars will never end here, lol.

On to something else...

My house smells like a mix of wet dog and black-cherry.  I gave the dogs a bath today and now I can't get rid of the stupid wet dog smell, lol.  It's haunting me!  I have 4 black-cherry candles lit in hopes to over power the dog smell.  It's not working all too well.  But, at least the dogs are clean.  Our big dog, Ian, decided to shake as I was bent over the tub and him... Completely soaked me.  Maybe that's what I'm smelling... Wet dog smell on my clothes, lol.  Oh well, life goes on and the dogs smell like roses now :)

And now...

When I was going out and helping my mother get firewood for her house, I was using my boyfriends long johns, lol.  They went clear up to my armpits!  So, I bought myself a pair of them in my size :)  Well, I wore them once, washed them, dried them, went to fold them and noticed that they now fit Barbie!  I guess next time, I will read the tag before I wash and dry anything!  I felt completely...stupid (to put it nicely).  And of course, Kris laughed at me!  "That'll learn ya!", he says.

To be continued...

Little bit of everything...

I must admit... My boyfriend is awesome!  Yesterday, he brought home a blended coffee from my favorite corner lot coffee hut... He ordered a 20 oz and the owner made too much (she always does that) so he got a 32 oz instead for the 20 oz price.  Then, he gave that big bad boy to me!  I was feeling like Hammy on Over the Hedge!!  My boyfriend hates coffee so for him to stop and get me one 'just because' is awfully sweet :)  I knew there was a reason why I love him so much!

On Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, I went to my mother's house and helped her get the place ready for Christmas and company.  Lots of coffee and giggling later, we got most of it done (E-Bay stuff organized too).  I'll go help her out again next week and get it super done :)

Kris bought a Prime Rib for Christmas dinner for us and the family.  I'm so excited about cooking it up and pigging out.  The way he cooks it is amazing!  It's so tender and scrumpdiddlyumptios!  I'm drooling now as I type this!

I've decided that my broke ass is making gifts this year for Christmas so, I will try to post pictures of the things I make (the ones that turn out looking good).  I love making things but I'm no Martha Stewart!  I sure like to try though!

Anywho, I have a lot to get done today (laundry and cleaning) so I better get my butt in gear!  Have a great day all!  :)

Good Deeds :)

I woke up this morning, made my coffee and let the dogs out to do their business and... WE HAD SNOW!  I love when the snow is pretty and white and sparkly and un-touched.  It's beautiful.  But then, the dogs went crazy running over every inch of it in our backyard and playing in it by sticking their noses in it and flipping it up and over their heads.  Then, they made it different colors... Oh well, I got to see the beauty of the snow before they went nuts, lol.

Kris and I decided to shovel our sidewalks and we ended up doing 3 of our neighbors sidewalks as well.  They are all older couples so it felt great for us to help them out.  That was our good deed for the year, lol!  Just kidding... We like helping people out with anything we can.  It's a great feeling.  :)

After shoveling, we took the dogs for a walk.  Our walk turned into a 1.97 mile walk.  What the hell were we thinking?!?  Snow on the ground and it's cold and wet outside and we're walking and walking and walking...  I was freezing by the time we got home and then I was roasting after being in the house for about 5 minutes... Once my body warmed up, I started to freeze again, lol.  (I decided a second pot of coffee was in order... *Yummy*)

That about sums up our day... We decided to call it a snow day and stay inside for the remainder of the day.  We learned how to play Gin Rummy, we ate dinner, we watched some College Football (Go DUCKS!!!) and now, we are so ready to crawl into our nice warm bed and snooze!  So, on that note, I say ta-ta and goodnight!  :)

Colorado and the Comforts of Home

I had a blast in Colorado!  The week went by super fast and I wasn't ready to come home yet, lol.  Kris and I went to a wedding (his friends) in Colorado and Kris was the best man.  It was my first time meeting the two newly weds and I was nervous but, they are awesome people and made me feel completely comfortable.

Beautiful Couple ~ Inside and Out!
(Paul and Nicole ~ Nov. 27th, 2010)







I was really scared to meet them at first, lol.  I was so afraid they wouldn't like me or approve of me but it seems they both approve.  I guess you could say I was a success!  Shy at first but they seemed to like me :)  Like I've said before, I'm not a people person but I had fun!  I met a lot of awesome people (friends/family of theirs) and hope to keep in touch and hang out with them again.

Kris seemed to be happy that I went with him.  (I almost didn't go)  It was funny... He was in the wedding and I was not.  At one point, he asked me how many times I was hit on by the guys there!  *giggles* I told him "None hit on me" lol.

As you can see, I'm not a girly-girl.  I hate dressing up and doing my hair.  Honestly, I wouldn't even know what to do with my hair besides curl it.  But, I would have tried more for this day if I had more time.  Time was a little hectic... But, I still felt pretty so it's all good :)  And now, Kris and I have a picture of us both kinda dressed up for his mother, lol.

While we were there in Denver, Kris was determined to take me to the Casa Bonita Restaurant (Beautiful House or House of Beauty... something like that).  That place is fricken nuts!  It looks so tiny on the outside (even though it sticks out like a sore peter) but it's huge on the inside with many different levels and about 500+ tables with different themes to them.  Plus, entertainment and caves for people to wander through, lol. That place was 2nd highlight of our trip... Wedding was 1st!






All in all, I had a blast and would love to go back again!  But, I was so happy to be home and sleeping in my own bed :)  You never realize the things you love till you don't have them for a while.  I love my bed, I love my pillow, I love my house, I love walking around in my panties... It's the simple things in life that bring such happiness!

Well all, I cleaned my house today and decorated for Christmas.  Now, I'm ready to tackle the laundry that is taunting me.  Have a great day and I hope everyone had a great Turkey Day!
 

TTYL

Hey all!  So, Kris and I are leaving tomorrow to drive to Portland (roads are horrible) and getting a motel room for the night.  Then, we are going to fly to Colorado for his friends wedding.  Kris is the Best Man.  We are flying back to Portland on the 30th.  Our plane should land around 9:30pm so we might get a room for that night as well.  Not sure yet.

Anywho... I'm excited about flying but nervous about all the people.  I hate being around butt-loads of people I don't know... I'm not a people person and it puts me way out of my comfort zone.  Oh well, I'm a strong woman and I think I will do just fine...

I will take pictures and share some when I get back.  It will be my first time going to Colorado :)  Wish me luck on all and I hope every single one of you have a great Thanksgiving!  Eat lots, stay warm and be safe :)

Giggles

Any one who has ever met my boyfriend knows that he's a smartass.  Well, let me be honest... He's a HUGE smartass!  But, I still love him for it.  He's always picking on me and giving me a hard time when it comes to things I don't know.  (I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed)  If he didn't pick on me, I'd think he didn't love me anymore, lol.

Here are a few examples ~

Nov. 22nd ~ We were watching a show (Chuck, I think) and someone got kidnapped...

Me ~  Honey, would you save me and go after the jerk who kidnapped me?
Him ~  Hell no!  I'd send them a Thank You note!  (giggle, laugh, snort, wipe tears away, laugh)
Me ~  *Flip him the bird*
Him ~  Baby, you know I love you but sometimes you just dig a hole and leave yourself wide open!

Same day ~ This time, we were watching Wheel of Fortune...

Me ~  (After puzzle was solved)  I didn't know there was a river in the Grand Canyon...
Him ~  Are you serious?!?  How do you think the Grand Canyon was formed?  Good God, woman!  (laugh, snort, giggle)
Me ~  I've never been there!  *Flip the bird again this time with a few choice words*

He's my everything!  Some would probably think it's mental abuse and mean of him.  But, it honestly isn't, lol.  Like I said, he's a HUGE smartass and we both have fitting personalities!  Plus, I feel it takes a strong woman to put up with him, lol!

But, he's not so sharp himself.  Here are a few examples of this...

Nov. 19th ~  We were playing cards with one of my uncles and Kris was having a chew (he spits in paper cups).  Well, he went to spit in the cup but he didn't grab the cup.  His hand formed a cup shape to his mouth!  He spit all over his hand!  My Uncle and I were in tears!

Nov. 20th ~  Kris made breakfast and wanted some hot sauce for his scrambled eggs.  He grabbed the sauce out of the fridge and shook the bottle.  The lid wasn't fully closed.  Hot sauce went all over in the kitchen... All over him and in his hair!!  Funniest thing I've ever seen!  I almost peed myself I was laughing so hard!!

I guess we were made for each other!  :)  We always keep each other laughing at the stupid things we say or do.  We've been together a little over 3 years now and I've loved every moment of it :)

Yesterday...

I had a great day yesterday for my birthday/turkey day.  Kris and I went to my mothers house for dinner and games with the family.

The turkey was yummy and the stuffing and yams were the best!  Mmm... I love me some yams... *drools*... Instead of having pie, we had cake.  A yummy vanilla cake with way too many candles, lol.  My mom always amazes me with big dinners like that... Spend alllll daaaay loooong cooking just for people to sit and scarf (literally) food for 15-20 minutes.  Me?  I don't have the patience to slave away on a great, big dinner just to enjoy for a short time.  I would much rather slave on T.V. Dinners in the oven, lol.  Gotta give props to my mom!  :)

Games were fun... We played Pinochle and I lost :)  (I always seem to anymore)  After the game, there was a bit of drama between two people about health care issues... But, other then the drama, I had an awesome birthday!  I do wish my father would have been able to make it.  Hopefully he will feel better soon and we can meet up sometime...

My mother gave me candles... Black-cherry!  My favorite!  My boyfriend bought me an amazing diner at Diego's about a month ago.  My uncle and his girlfriend got me some lottery scratch-its and I won $20.00 on those and my mothers landlord (and friend for years) gave me some cash.  I keep telling people to not get me anything but they never listen.  I'm too old to be receiving gifts for a b-day.  Although, I did buy myself a cute, warm winter coat this morning!  :)  I love it!

Well, time to get my butt in gear and finish cleaning house and doing laundry so I can relax this evening.  Desperate Housewives is on tonight so I'm pretty excited about that :)  Later all!

If it's not one thing... It's another...

The seal or gasket (or whatever it is) behind the water pump in Kris's (my boyfriend) truck is no good and now water is leaking everywhere!  Once again, I will do my best to be his Mechanic Nurse and help him out.  My job is to hand him tools or whatever he needs for the job.  For some reason, I don't think he trusts me to remove bolts or anything 'cause I'm a girl, lol.

The timing of this whole thing couldn't be worse.  We are supposed to be saving money to go to Colorado for his best friends wedding.  We leave to drive to Portland on Turkey Day to catch our plane.  May have to take a bus to Portland if anything else decides to go wrong with his truck.  We already have our plane tickets purchased (obviously) but now we are going to be short on cash while there.  Fun.  We fly back home on the 30th... That's a long time with no money, lol.  But, we will make the best of it and still have a blast while there :)

On to something else... My family, Kris and I are going to have Saturday as our Turkey Day since Kris and I will be gone on the real Turkey Day.  Saturday is also my birthday so we are getting two birds with one stone... Much easier that way!  We should just pick one day out of the year and celebrate EVERY holiday, lol.  That would be a huge money saver!  4th of July, Easter, St. Patty's Day, Christmas, Halloween, Birthdays and whatever other holiday I didn't say... All rolled into one!  Sweetness :)  Well, maybe on New Years Eve...

Anywho, I should get going.  He's in the shower now and he will be ready to start mechanicin' once he's done.  Have a great day all!  :)

20 Things

I was thinking I would do a ~20 things about me for my 20th post~ post :)

1.  I am terrified of spiders... Any kind, any size.  I'm a complete girly-girl when it comes to spiders... I run away screaming like a baby, lol.  The only good spider is a dead spider!


2.  I have broke 3 bones in my 26 years.  In order ~ My left collar bone as a toddler when my cousin fell on me (I still love you Lacie!).  My right collar bone while playing football (tripped over my own feet trying to impress a boy) at age 11 (I think).  Last, my left wrist by bouncing off another cousins trampoline at 13 or 14 years old (Yes, I still love you too, Amber!).


3.  I was home-schooled  (which may explain my grammar/english writing skills, lol).  However, I did graduate and I received my High School Diploma with the home-schooling :)

4.  I like to write (obviously!) about anything.  Poems, short stories, letters to friends and family...

5.  I have a stupid fear of driving that controls my freedom!  I get panic attacks behind the wheel.  Makes me feel like a royal dumbass!

6.  I'm a firm believer in "Eye for an Eye" when it comes to prison inmates but that is a whole different blog post.  I have a lot to say about that...

7.  I hate having nail polish on my fingers but feel naked when my toes are without nail polish.  Is that weird?

8.  I can pop my hips in and out of joint while standing.  It sure grosses people out to see that, lol.  My hips were dislocated when I was born (my mother had to double up the diapers to keep my hips in socket if that makes any sense)...

9.  I was in an abusive relationship for 3 years.  I hate the guy for how he was but I'm thankful to him for making me stronger and wiser.

10.  I'm addicted to coffee but I don't like Starbucks or Dutch Brothers.  I prefer my local Full Throttle Java Hut (located at both ends of town for your convenience)  :)  Plus, the girls there rock!

11.  I once got really drunk and did amateur night at a strip club.  I will NEVER drink that much EVER again, lol.  I was also offered a job by the club manager... I drunkenly, yet politely, declined, lol.

12.  I'm extremely shy in person but will tell my life story online (go figure).

13.  I went through a depressed stage in life and tried to end it.  I'm so over that now though and I love, love, love my life the way it is.  Yeah, things could be better but I'll take it for what it is :)  I have family, friends and a boyfriend who all love me and accept me for who I am and I love them all for that and their support :)

14.  I absolutely HATE cooking but I do it anyways for my boyfriend because he loves when I cook for him (probably because he's taught me how to cook... My mother tried but I never listened because SHE always cooked) and his appreciation makes me feel good.

15.  I've never met my real father but here recently, he contacted me through FaceBook.  I'm glad he did and I want to know everything about him and meet him someday.  I have so many questions for him... I feel... Well, I don't know how I feel yet.  Only time will tell...

16.  I don't plan on ever getting married.  I would wear an engagement ring but never get married, lol.  I would stay engaged forever.  I don't believe in having a piece of paper to prove how much I love someone.  Besides, it's much cheaper to get rid of a boyfriend then it is to get rid of a husband, lol.  No divorce :)  Just take your shit and go!

17.  I don't plan on ever having kids either.  Don't get me wrong, I love kids I just don't want any of my own.  Yeah, yeah... They're cute and squishy and do adorable things but... I'll pass.  But, if I ever did end up pregnant, I would love my baby more then anything else in life :)

18.  I sang karaoke once with a friend at a bar that was full of people.  That was another drunk moment of mine.  It was horrible, lol.  We sang, or butchered would be correct, 'Rockstar' by Nickelback :)

19.  I love nuts by themselves... Salted, honey roasted, whatever but I hate foods that have nuts cooked in it or topped with nuts.  Candy bars with nuts in them?  I don't like them... Yuck!

20.  I hate getting flowers as a gift (especially from a boyfriend).  It may be a nice gesture and all but get me something that is going to last... Not something that is going to die soon...

Triple Topic?

First, it rained... Then, it snowed... Now, it's just fricken cold!  Come out sun... I miss you.

Coffee
I've been drinking coffee all day trying to warm up.  My coffee is NOT doing it's job.  I am STILL frozen.  But I don't really mind all that much 'cause I'm a coffeeholic.  :)  Well, I do mind a little I guess... I hate being cold!  I just can't make up my mind... So cold, confused and complicated lol.

Winter
I think we are going to have a long, cold and wet winter.  I am overwhelmed with joy. *eye roll* Maybe I should take up a winter sport.  I think I can handle snowboarding down the bunny slope.  I've never tried skiing or snowboarding.  I've heard it's a blast and it takes technique to master, lol.  I'm a huge klutz and would probably brake a leg... Even on the bunny slope.

Summer
I did have a great summer though!  It was WAY too short but still loads of fun.  My boyfriend and I went to Montana for two weeks to his parents cabin on the lake.  That was a blast!  My boyfriend is from Montana and goes back to "the lake" every summer for the 4th of July.  I went with him this year and I want to go back next year.  It was so peaceful yet exciting at the same time.  He caught a 10lb. walleye and it's going to go on our wall.  Just waiting for the taxidermy guy to finish it (sometime within the next month or so).  I caught a big walleye for me... Maybe 2-3lbs, lol.  But, it was my first walleye ever caught! I was so excited :)  Montana was the highlight of our summer... Next year, I will catch a bigger walleye then his wall hanger!  :)

U-Joints and Grease Monkeys

Yesterday, my whole morning consisted of helping my boyfriend replace u-joints... Well, we only got one done (passenger side).  I like working out in the garage with him and being his Mechanic Nurse, lol.  He calls out tools like a Mechanic Surgeon and I get them for him.  I ask him a question about what he's doing and he laughs at me for asking a stupid question.  "Damn girlfriend, askin' dumb questions!"  He then laughs at my stupidity.  But, it's all it good fun.  He enjoys my company :)  He tells me so!  Got dirty and greasy but that's better then getting all dressed up for me, lol.

We did the drivers side U-Joint this morning.  Another fun-filled morning of silly questions.  Although, I was the 'bright' one when it came to working smarter and not harder.  So, I had to give him lots of hell for that and laugh at him in return!  "Yeah, yeah... laugh it up, smartass"  he says!  "Did you just call me smart?"  I ask with a huge grin, lol.  I love that man!  :)

Then, about 30 minutes ago, my mother dropped off one of my Uncles to help.  They both decided to laugh at my Grease Monkey attire.  "Halloween was almost 2 weeks ago"  My mother tells me as she's looking at the greasy clothes and the black marks on my face. Thanks for pointing out the obvious.  But now, Uncle Austin is going to take my place as Mechanic Nurse and I will stay in the house and do some cleaning.

Later all!  :)

Pizza and Pinochle

Had a great time today!  Had pizza with the family and played pinochle.  My boyfriend won the game but it's all good.  He can still sleep in the bed, lol.  Sat in the hot tub as well to relax my old bones :)  Or so I feel like my bones are getting old.  I'm going to be 27 soon... Man, time fly's by fast after you hit 18!  Crazy...

Amazing Race is on tonight.  Got the DVR set for it... Same with Desperate Housewives and ITR's Deadliest Road (go Lisa Kelly!).  My three favorite Sunday night shows :)  Lame, I know but I like them.  I also watch Survivor, Two and a Half Men and Big Bang Theory.  I love Sheldon (Jim Parsons)!!!  He cracks me up!  Those are about the only shows I like... Television drains the brain of knowledge... Well, the shows I watch do, lol.  There are the shows that actually learn people but I sometimes find them to be boring... Who woulda thunk it?

Yeah, this was a pretty boring post... I've even bored myself with it and I'm easy to entertain, lol.  So, I will say goodnight and think of something better to write about for tomorrow as I lay in bed, tossing and turning and thinking...  Goodnight all :)

Diego's Restaurant

My awesome boyfriend took me to Diego's for dinner last night.  Talk about amazing food!  I found my new favorite restaurant :)  I ordered the Seafood Penne Pasta... Shrimp, halibut, scallops and lobster with a garlic sauce... It was to die for!  The only downfall is the price.  It's what I would call a 'high-class' restaurant.  But, I guess for the price, the food was well worth it, lol.

I was so excited to go there (my first time there) that I even curled my hair.  The curl didn't last the whole time though, lol.  But, it was nice to get dressed up and be all girly like :)  I don't do that very often.  I'm more of a down-and-dirty kinda girl.  Now I'm getting off track.  Back to the dinner.  We met up with another couple there and enjoyed great food and company.  I had two beers with dinner and boy howdy... Those two beers seemed to make me a little buzzed!  TWO!  That's crazy right there, lol.  I don't know what was up with that but when we got home, I sat on the couch with my guy and watched a little T.V..  Next thing I know, I wake up just in time for him to say he's ready for bed, lol.  Don't know when I fell asleep but we got home around 7:30pm.  I'm just getting too old these days... Early to bed, early to rise is my motto now when I used to be a night owl and sleep all morning... Blasted age is getting the best of me and I don't like it.

Have a great day all!  :)
