My FIL just showed up with a case of beer and some tools. So I guess DH and FIL are going to look at the truck. And DH ordered the parts he needs to fix it online today.
Other then that my mom got given tickets to a concert tonight and she invited me to go with her and my grandma. She also offered me to come with them for dinner, my moms treat. I'm so excited. The concert is Jason Alden.
I'm happy to hear the truck is going to be worked on. Have SO much fun at the concert and dinner. I saw him a few years ago, he's fantastic!
I worked pretty much all day, I'm exhausted. Now just watching a movie before I take a bath. Then bed early tonight for another early day of work tomorrow.
travelbug, they are going to do all they can right now but DH ordered the parts for his truck online. He found it for $1200 cheaper then the stores here. (Well it will be $1100 cheaper because of shipping.) it says the part should arrive by Friday, so in the meantime we will only have one vehicle. It's a good thing he changes jobs in the summer and can ride his bike to work. Lol
DH stressed me out this morning and I gave him what for. Other than that, we've had a great day! It was just me and E by ourselves in the middle part of the day. I was doing tummy time with him and he rolled over, twice! I doubt he'll do it again anytime soon, but yay!
Then we got dressed and went to tailgate for the game tonight, and E did really well. He was calm, and seemed interested in all the people. He and I are back home now while DH is staying at the game with his brother and friends. I'll watch the game by myself after E is in bed.
Had the funeral today, and now we're going to my uncles for hanging out. I am in awe of how the widow is holding up. She is SO strong and amazing. I would not be doing so well if my H does right now.
We stayed home today in our pajamas because it's cold and rainy. I got some housework done and am now just hanging out. Later we'll watch the new Cinderella movie .
We went for a walk earlier over to the schools (all the schools in this town are connected, and they are less than a mile from our house) to check out the playground. No baby swings but we held E on the swings and H took him down the slide. I think he was indifferent about it, lol. Oh well. It was a good walk! Then we went grocery shopping (without a list - bad!! But I did try to stick to sale things as much as possible) and did a little unpacking at the house. Now just chilling and catching up on Gotham. Tomorrow we will probably do some more unpacking. I wanted to do more today but I'm so damn tired. Blah.
I made fried rice for my self for dinner. This stuff is so good. A filipino woman gave the recipe to my mom years ago. It's one of my favorite comfort foods.
It has been cold rainy and shitty here ALL day. H is at work kids are in bed. I'm looking forward to a relaxing evening.
In other news I did some bad ass Halloween crafting last night. I'm very pleased with the finished product. I just kinda winged it with 0 instruction so I'm proud of myself.
I know today is Saturday but I'm already thinking about work next week. I think I'm going to talk to my boss about getting a raise. I think I deserve one so we'll see how that goes. The worst he can do is say no right? I think if I point out the stuff that I'm doing great at combined with I haven't received a raise or more PTO in like 2 years I can convince him.
Good morning ladies!!! I am feeling much better then I should be this morning lol. I ate and drank way too much yesterday. At one point I was drinking gin straight from the bottle lol. I had a nice buzz when we got home.
I don't understand why people are so rude at the grocery store. I went early this morning to get a few items and a lady almost rammed me with her shopping cart because she isn't paying attention, she is too busy on her phone texting, then gives me a dirty look and gets all huffy because apparently almost hitting me and having to stop texting and walk around me was an inconvenience.

amaranth - Oh, I made them myself. It took forever (aka like 3 hrs).
There was a company when we lived in Florida that did them. They would post what they had each week and you'd schedule a pickup. I haven't been able to find anything like that here though.

Reading fail. I probably shouldn't post at 2am. Lol. I hate making freezer meals but having them done is amazing.
anyastroud could you share the recipe? I love fried rice
yep! half an white onion minced fine green pepper minced fine (about as much pepper as onion) 1 clove of garlic minced fine maybe about a cup of ham cut in to small squares (I just use regular lunch meat) 2 eggs sctambled rice I use quick white rice and make the max serving on the side of the box soy sauce
cook rice set aside
in a wok and or big pan on med. heat cook onions until translucent. add garlic cook for a few more minutes add pepper cook until soft. add rice and egg ham dial back the heat to a med. low add soy sauce until rice is a light brow color.
I usually add more soy sauce to what on my plate because yum. it's really to your personal taste.
I've had a super boring although relaxing weekend. H has been working all day yesterday and today, so I've been catching up on my DVR, napping, cleaning, and I got the Halloween decorations out today. Now, I have chicken chili in the crockpot and am waiting for H to get home so we can eat!
