Long Update

Well, it seems like I haven't blogged for quite awhile, been trying to get back to normal around here. So I will just recap the last while lol...this last weekend, we went to Iowa to visit my family and Tom helped my dad remove the radiators from their house since they are getting a new furnace and stuff, so we got there late Friday night, and my dad and brother were already hard at work on removing the boiler and Tom jumped right in to help them finish up, and they were all FILTHY, i mean serioiusly! Mom and Katy know what I am talking about, we should have totally taken a picture! lol anyways...Saturday Tom and dad got hard to work and I went to hang out with my bestest friend, Britt, and had the FANTASTIC surprise to see an extra vehicle in her driveway! :) her family was in town and Britt, her mom and I got to sit and chat for a few hours, and I wish we wouldn't have had things to do, because we had a great time! Then Saturday night, we had a blast! My mom, dad, grandma Riley, tom and I all went to Pella and picked up my grandma Joyce for the weekend. It was a surprise to her that Tom and I were there, she didn't know we were coming since we had just decided on Thursday night we were coming for the weekend, so that was fun! Then we had supper at Happy Joes and drove back to Osky and we all went and saw the movie Fireproof. WOW! FANTASTIC movie! PLEASE go see it!!!! I could go on and on about that movie, but I will move along...lol...Sunday we went to church, the church I grew up in, and have not been back to for quite awhile, and it was nice to see friends! Then went home where we all got together again and had a very yummy lunch my grandma Riley had made for all of us! :) That afternoon we had the great pleasure of getting to see Kelly and Britt again, this time Tom was able to come! :) spent some time with them and then took the long drive home, so that was last weekend...

Last Tuesday we got a puppy, only to realize this week, that I am allergic to her! so I am driving halfway to Iowa tomorrow to meet my grandma, and Zoey will be living with my grandma and her little Izzy, I am sure they will be best of friends! 

Well, I think thats the most of it, oh other than a funny story from Tuesday night...Tom said I should blog about it, and title it something like, "As two ships passing in the night" lol...you will understand why, very soon...lol :) Tom got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, well him getting out of bed woke me up and I decided I needed to go to the bathroom as well, but layed there for a few minutes debating if I needed to go THAT BAD that i wanted to "wake up" and walk down the hallway and freeze to death, cuz i dont know about you, but its been pretty chilly here lately, despite my warm pjs, i just can't wear socks to bed, drives me crazy, anyways after a couple minutes I decided ok fine! so i climb out of bed, and walk out the bedroom door, with my eyes closed of course, because I don't want ANY glimmer of light to actually "wake" me up...and my hand on the wall, so I don't fall into the stair railing or something...I get halfway down the hall, and BOOM! OUCH! Tom and I collided, and of course because I am short, my head hit his shoulder or so, and it hurt! lol...I said didn't you hear me?! he said no, i can't hear anything, my ears are bugging me LOL...come to find out, we were both walking down the hallway, with our eyes closed...see? it makes sense to someone else...don't tell me you have never done that lol :) 

Anyways, I promise I will try to blog more often...if you all haven't given up on me yet lol...Like i have said before though, I really don't think you want to read my daily blog if all I write about is cleaning and organizing my house and doing laundry! I have had a lot of stuff weighing heavy on my heart that I want to blog about my thoughts and opinions, but at the same time, I think it will only create drama, not deter from it, and I hate drama...and its the LAST thing I need right now...so we'll see... :)
