Date Night :)



For the last few months hubby and I have had a date night every Friday night. You know, with 5 kids, it's hard to get quality adult alone time LOL But then he got some overtime and had to start working on Saturday's and our Friday night dates had to be canceled.
He's made up for the canceled ones tonight. We went to dinner at the one "nice" resturant we have in town. I had herb crusted tilapia, he had a ribeye. We chatted, we looked longingly into each others eyes (not really). We went to Home Depot after so I could look at dryers while we killed time before THE PLAY started. Yep, I said PLAY! Can you believe, he took me to a real live play?!


We went to the local community college...yep, we have those here in Alabama, and saw their production of Noises Off. In case you're not familiar with it, it's a play within a play. Totally hilarious! You watch the same play 3 times from different view points. One was even from "backstage"! We laughed, we held hands, we enjoyed ourselves like adults and never once thought about the kids :)


Note to self, we must do this more often :)

My Reading Habits

I am an avid book reader.  I have even been known to read a good bit of fanfiction (I'm a Twifan...yes, I admit that in public).  Since joining Goodreads I've come to love to do reading challenges.  In case you're like my best friend and have no clue what that might be, let me explain.  A reading challenge can be as simple as setting a reading goal for the year.  Or it can be as complex as one I'm doing next year that is an Artist Color Wheel Challenge - find book covers that are mainly the colors on the color wheel and are the shades of the grey scale. Anyway, I read Book Chick City's blog  http://www.bookchickcity.com/  and they're doing a Mystery/Suspense reading challenge that I'm going to join in on next year.  I'm going to see if I can read 12 mystery/suspense books.  You may be thinking that that isn't a whole lot of books for someone who claims to be an avid reader; and you're right, it's not BUT I normally don't read myste...

Long Time No See

  Hi there!  It's been a hot minute since I've visited with you.  Let me catch you up on what's been going on. I think the last time I was here was back in October.  That would totally make sense because I got a new full time job at the end of October that had me working 50 hours a week.  With all that work going on I had little time for anything else.  Good news (or bad, depending on your point of view) is that the job is over and I am back to being a stay at home wife again.  There will be plenty of time to catch up on cross stitch and quilting.  My needles will be happy since my poor sewing machine has not been touched since November!   Once again, I am back to tracking food.  I gained back 10 pounds while working.  My body hurts again and I don't want to ache.  So, I am taking it day by day.  Positive thinking. Good food choices.  I got this. The holidays came and went.  All the girls are doing good....
