Last week was filled with ups and downs. Luckily the ups outweighed the downs by the end of it, so we'll call it a success. But by Friday I was ready for the weekend!
I volunteer with a cat rescue group once a month, and this past Saturday was my day. I usually help get the adoption set-up and then hang out for a bit. I love helping with this organization, even when I wish I was laying on a couch soaking up whatever is on Bravo. But DH and I have this bad habit of double booking ourselves on those Saturdays...this weekend was no exception! So after a couple hours with the kitty cats, we were off to Grand Prairie with friends.
For a cupcake meet. Which has nothing to do with cupcakes and everything to do with cars. Lots of cars.
Outside.
With no shade.
In 106 degree sunny clear skied weather.
Heat stroke hot weather.
Yes, we're crazy.
It was hot, people. Luckily the guys were troopers and went to the car to get the cooler and some books. You read that right, we sat and read in the shade. Girlfriend and I are basically Rory Gilmore.The menfolk ventured out with Powerades and oohed and ahhed to their hearts content. And then we blasted the AC the whole way home to try and cool off.
Sunday is usually a pretty lazy day for DH and I. We try to get to the gym where I pretend that I can still run miles on end without stopping. Why is it that I feel like I've gone 6 miles only to look at the treadmill display and see it's been a whopping 1.5 miles? I ran about 3 before throwing in the towel and hopping on an elliptical for my last 20 minutes.
The side effect of all that running is that I became ridiculously hangry while we grocery shopped. And whenever I get hangry - anger born from hunger - in a grocery store I find it impossible to find anything to eat. In a grocery store. Surrounded by food. I managed to hold it together until we left the store at which point I'm pretty sure I morphed into the Hulk. DH told me later that even when I'm hangry and grumpy he still thinks I'm cute. It's a good thing I'm marrying this man!
The weekend was topped off with The Bachelorette - finally Emily picks the right guy! - and Breaking Bad - I love Mike, love him.
Today it's back to Sculpt class and baking cookies for Little Monkey's birthday fiesta. Not a bad way to spend my Monday!
Have a good one, y'all!!!!

Love this post - new favorite word "hangry" I think I'm going to start using that! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteAlisa, I can't take credit for it. I saw it on the almighty Pinterest, but it sure fits! You have a great week too!
Deletewhat is a sculpt class? and what time of cookies are you making? i love baking!
ReplyDeleteMeg, it is torture masquerading as a gym class. Basically when you want to cry, she makes you do another set of squats and skull crushers.
DeleteThe cookies are sugar cookies! I love baking them, then I melt down halfway through decorating, then I'm really proud...or maybe that's the sugar high. What is your favorite thing to bake?
