Our Weekend

Our weekend started out wonderful. On my way home from work on Friday I stopped and got Laura some flowers. Friday afternoon while I was at work I realized I don't get her flowers enough. She was very suprised and happy about the flowers. As I was walking in the house I said, "close your eyes" and she said, "if it's alive, don't bring it in the house." I think she was afraid I had brought home another cat or dog. She was very surprised about the flowers and I was happy to see her so happy to get some.

Saturday morning brought getting up early and doing our shopping at Home Depot. I have never spent that much money at Home Depot before. And to everyone's surprise, I never once get grumpy or in a bad mood. Thank goodness for that $200 gift certificate we received a month ago. It came in very handy.

The weekend was not completly smooth. We had a few bumps along the way and are still struggling through some of what happened. We got some very upsetting news from family as well as some personal struggles that we are working our way through. What is going on with us right now has nothing to do with us as a couple, but it's hard not going through something when your partner is going through something hard and emotional. Please keep both of us in your thoughts and prayers for the next couple of days. I can't go into detail what is going on, but we would appreciate all good thoughts that are sent our way. It is a comforting thought knowing that we have just 13 days until our much needed vacation. We kept having to remind ourselves that in two weeks we will be on the beach. Being on the beach catching some rays always makes those little "bumps" in the road easier to handle.
