Lets see... what has happened since Tuesday...
Well Brian went on his trip to Phoenix and got back late Friday night. He said the weather was wonderful and it was like 98 degrees but didn't seem that hot. Dry heat doesn't seem all that hot any more after humid heat. He got to spend some time with one of his great friend Jason and his wife. They spent a couple evenings together and Brian had a wonderful time.
He got back Friday at like 10 and I was too tired to cook so we went to Cracker Barrel. I have never been there before. I have to say it is a fun little place! I was most impressed with their mashed potatoes! They are real potatoes and were really good!!!!
Yesterday was our Day of Service. Brian and I were in charge. There was another couple that was supposed to help but they flaked on us from the very beginning. I spent all Saturday baking. We made sheet cakes, 48 cupcakes and cinnamon rolls. We? I take that back. Just me. Brian did help me make the hot fudge though and helped me clean up. Believe me… our kitchen looked like a nuclear bomb went off!
So my new found love is a website called Pintrest. My FAVORITE site in the world!! Home of all things design and crafts. You have to be invited but it is well worth waiting for. I learned about it from my friend back in Idaho so since I have been home I have really been thinking of new projects I can do. In my last post I posted the picture of my wreath I made. I have some projects that I really want to do but I don’t know if I can afford them. I want to make pillows and curtains but I don’t have a sewing machine and the fabric I want is really expensive. The curtains I would want would be 40 dollars. Not terrible compared to most curtain prices. They can get expensive! But 40 dollars I don’t really have at the moment. Problem two… I don’t have my own sewing machine. I am looking for a used one, but still money I don’t have.
I really want to make some wood letters. They are so expensive to buy and I could make my own if I had my own saw. Then again, no money for that either. I was telling Brian that I need him to tell his friends at work that they need to bring him their old wine bottles and beer bottles. You can do some really cool stuff with the. Brian looked at me and just laughed thinking about what the guys are going to say when he tells them why he needs them.
We both had dentist appointments this week. Brian came out with nothing but gold stars. Well, his last filling he had fixed 6 months ago doesn’t look like it is holding so he may have to get it fixed next time. Well, MY filling I had done a year ago didn’t hold and is really bad. I get to go back on the 25th and have it fixed. Yippee!
Well other than that, nothing has happened this week.
I take that back! The truck is broken… AGAIN. This time the breaks are not working. Literally. Brian took the truck to work and at a stop light and the breaks did not do their job. I have yet another broken vehicle in my garage and I am without a vehicle. Brian is doing the repairs himself and getting the parts which will save us over 600 hundred dollars.
Well here we go for another week!
