I seriously lack motivation these days.
I wish that I knew why.
Right now, I could be doing so many other things like...cleaning, organizing, sewing, laundry, project life'n(scrapbooking), reading my bible, or reading my book, The Hunger Games that I started months ago. I know, serious slacker. It's a good book too! What's wrong with me? Don't answer that.
Instead, I am sitting here. It's 9:30pm. My husband is playing video games. Yes, the same husband I gushed over yesterday. When he does that it means that there is no tv for me, so I must find other things to do. Like go to Walgreens and get milk, and then blog about it. Oh, and stand in the magazine aisle and read magazines. I brought this one home. I hope I didn't just waist 3.99 :)
Have people been doing this all over your Facebook feed? Balancing their broom. I gave it a whirl. It worked. I think it has something to do with spring equinox. But who knows what that is anyway? Pretty sure I could get it to stand any day of the year. Upon posting this photo on Facebook, one of my friends said that she would be impressed if it swept all by itself too. I tend to agree.
Told you I was bored. Ha! Maybe just a little crazy too.
We had this for dinner tonight. It is such a fantastic and easy dinner. I added chicken and broccoli too. I just love my cheese grater/veggie slicer. Thanks husband. He buys me appliances & attachments for Christmas. I don't mind :)
Here are a scenes from our little date night last night.
Ok. So we got a babysitter lined up kinda last minute because both sets of our parents can not watch our kids right now due to life circumstances. Bobby called his sister. She said yes! We forget to ask her cause she works a lot. Anywho, Aunt Billie Jo saved the day. Sweet.
Since it was so last minute we never decided where to go. I mean, we left the house and still were not sure. No pressure.
Well, I decided that I might want to try a new place this time around because darn it, we never try anything new so let's start now! I put out a poll on Facebook earlier that day asking for some ideas. I got many suggestions and ended up choosing a place called Bigelo's. I wasn't in the mood to dress up so that placed seemed like it would meet my desires. It's located in a neighboring town and I have always been a little curious.
Looks super cool from the outside, right?
Well, short story long, we walked in an instantly I was like....what in heck? You walk in the front door and it is like walking into someones front door right into the living room. There was no landing. No hostess stand. Nothing. Just a bunch of tables. Everyone turned to look at us and what seemed like minutes (but were only seconds) that we stood there awkwardly waiting to figure out what to do. Should we sit? Wait for a hostess? Super weird. We finally were told to find a seat somewhere. Ok, thanks. I can tell this is gonna be a romantic dinner already. We find a tiny table and sit down. Order sodas and then notice a HUGE table of drunk women acting a little crazy. Ok this is just great. I looked at my husband. It's ok honey. We should stay. I really don't want to be high maintanence. I opened the menu. Could not find anything I wanted to eat. Started to feel sick. Closed the menu. Took a deep breath. Said to myself, "get over it and find something to eat." The women are getting louder. I opened the menu back up. I started to feel even more sick. I think I just wanted this night to be perfect since we don't get out much. I worked myself into a stomach ache.
I told Bobby that I was going to the bathroom and that he had to tell the waiter that we were leaving cause I felt sick. So we did. He paid for our drinks and we got the heck out. I am not cool enough for that place I guess. It was dirty and loud, but I hear the food is great. Maybe that's why it was recommended. Not really what I had in mind for our anniversary dinner.
After leaving, we decided to go to Peel. It's a great upscale wood-fired pizza place. Always packed. But we thought, it's Wednesday, how packed can it be? That was a dumb question.
Well, we finally ended up at a favorite place of ours...54th Street Grill. They have great food. It's not really a romantic place but hey, at least we KNOW we like the food. Oh, we also had to wait over a half hour to get in. Kind of ironic since we wouldn't wait to get into Peel.
A super yummy appetizer called 'Gringo dip'......I could drink this stuff.
This was us waiting outside, snuggled up on a bench in the cold wind.
Do your husband's get embarrassed when you take photos in public? (a question for my fellow bloggers) Bobby kind of does. I told him that he needs to get over it. He is in the beginning stages.
Another reason to call him a Saint. Or Fun Bobby. Or St. Bobby. Wait, I think I like St. Hubby. Ha!
I am done rambling now. Getting tired, so I will fight my boredom by catching up on some sleep.
Happy weekend to you!!
