Where to start...

I am not sure today! It's not a bad day, but it's not the best day, maybe just a blah day.....do you ever have those days? Nothing stands out as great, but nothing as terrible either. Brooks and I had fun last night. We went to the Melting Pot and it was delicious!! If you have never been, I highly recommend!! Also, I recommend that you don't do the whole meal....the past couple of times we have gone we have only gotten a salad (which they have the BEST dressing that I have ever found), then we do the cheese fondue, and then we get the chocolate fondue. We have found that this way you are not stuffed by the time the chocolates come, but yet you are still full when you leave. This is also, $50 cheaper than getting the "Big Night Out"....I don't like meat that much anyways, so Brooks usually eats most of the meats when we do the whole meal, so it is well worth just getting 3 for us. Afterwards we went to Concord Mills and did some shopping and Brooks even tried to get me to get a new pocketbook because I am still carrying a summer one (which I even hate to admit out loud) and I said no, so you should be impressed.

I am so glad that today is the last day, that I can say to myself.....this time last week everything was ok. I kind of lost it a little bit last night when we saw the stupid Motherhood Store. I am not sure why because I dislike this store and I think its too expensive for what they have, I guess it was the simple fact that I don't have a need for that store right now and I felt myself being bitter!

So what have we accomplished this weekend.....the house is clean, the car is washed, yard work is done, we had a date, we watched Remember Me (it was sad and not what I expected), we were together as a family, and the one that sticks out the most....we are 3 more days beyond this experience. So what is the agenda for the week....well, work everyday, soccer games M-Th, then it will be the weekend again. Decisions to make about next weekend...go to the beach, maybe? Go to the corn maze, maybe? Carowinds, maybe? Either way we have fun things to look forward to next weekend, which is the way I like it. I don't like not having a plan or not being busy because then I am forced to sit here and dwell and right now I don't want that.

So today's entry, is not the best....nothing great to say, nothing cute that rhymes, just nothing. Tomorrow's entry will be much brighter and upbeat for tomorrow is our "dating" anniversary and I plan on taking a stroll down memory lane! So tune in tomorrow for something much better than today! Hope you have a great week and know that we love you!
