I can't seem to get rid of a box these days. Each cat wants one of their own! Here is Athena napping in the kitchen in one of the numerous boxes we have. And it wasn't even daylight! Do boxes smell like catnip or something? *G*
It's been a another long day here. I couldn't sleep for a long time last night, though I was physically exhausted. I ended up being up 19 hours straight before I could sleep. And then I didn't want to get up this morning. *sigh* For the first time in years my Son woke up before I did! He woke me up and told me "You need to wake up, you're sleeping late.". *G* This from the child that takes forever to not only wake up, but get up and dressed. Chris had to go into work today for a couple of hours. We don't mind, thanks to the Vet bills from the week before last we had to put off purchasing the kids sparring gear until next month. (Ooh, haven't told the teacher that yet. Wish me luck.) The overtime will go towards their gear. And you do NOT want to know my power bill due to the AC and Summer heat. Ugh. After Chris arrived home we headed to Mass, we had a visiting Priest who changed up the usual and threw every one off today. Is it bad that I didn't like him? I think that makes me a bad person. *sigh* After Mass we headed to Marshalls. Chris left his headphones on the dresser the other night over night and one of the cats decided they tasted yummy and broke them. (No they didn't eat them, just left teeth marks and uncovered wire.) Marshalls didn't have any that weren't pink. *g* So we headed to Ross. They didn't have any that we trusted. (We were looking for the same brand and for the same price I had purchased the other pair, $10.). The we looked at Best Buy (all these stores were in the same shopping complex), they had the brand, but they were double what I paid, so they were a no go. Then we tried TJ Maxx. They had the brand, but again they were pink. So, he bought another brand but the same style. Then we headed to another grocery store for some produce (we stopped buying that at WW a long time ago, everything went bad quickly). Then, blessed be, we headed home. I don't know what's going on with pollen or whatever it is that's bugging me, but my sinuses are driving me crazy.
We made dinner, meaning Chris chopped and I cooked. Chris had his Blackberry (loaded with music he stole from me) on the counter and we were dancing around the kitchen while cooking. Well, okay, Son and I were dancing. Chris was smiling at me and Daughter I am sure wanted new parents. *G* And am now relaxing for a few minutes before I have to dig into the dryer and fold things. *G*
Oh, I finally finished the 5th Stephanie Plum book. Which is funny because I read number seven before I read this one! I've now started the Linda Castillo book, Sworn to Silence. This is a new-to-me author and I have heard very good things about the book. I am a bit intrigued as it is set in Amish country with a former-Amish woman as the lead Cop in the mystery. The prologue was heart-breaking, I hope I can stick with the book.
To be honest, that's about it from me today. It's been a rather so-so day. I hope y'all had a relaxing and fun Friday. I wish a restful and peaceful Sunday for y'all. Goodnight, B.
Exercise: Melissa's Crossfit Challenge #2-Day 55, walking-lots of walking through the stores and through the shopping complex. Please tell me that counts? And *sigh* I'm going to miss Zumba again this weekend (it's only every other weekend). Chris has to go into work for a few more hours tomorrow and there's no Childwatch on Sunday. Oh, well, maybe the treadmill.
