Lazy Sunday

I didn't win the Powerball last night.  Sigh....  I know it's going to happen one day.  Hehehehehe....  I wish!  It's almost 1 pm and I haven't done anything productive except make breakfast.  Fluffy scrambled eggs with sautéed yellow bell peppers, two slices of organic 21 grain toast and my wonderful coffee.  I made Stephen the same eggs, but he wanted oatmeal instead of toast.  He likes the way I make it, with vanilla almond milk instead of just plain old water.  It doesn't need any extra flavoring.

Stephen's mom is coming out today.  He is working on her truck.  I suppose we will be going out for an early dinner later.  We have already started on a couple loads of laundry.  Dishes are in the dishwasher and now I am blogging and he is looking at the weather online.  It's going to be another gorgeous day here in Oklahoma.

Gabby is meowing at me.  I guess she wants some attention.  She has finally become comfortable sitting on my lap.  It only took over a year to get there.  Stephen needs to brush her more.  Her hair is unbearable.  It's the one thing I don't care for.  She likes rubbing herself all over my laptop.  Funny cat.

What are you doing on this fine Sunday?  Usually I am at work, so this is a rare occasion for me.  I shall relish in it all day.  Enjoy yourselves out there!

Late Start

Well, I am back in Oklahoma.  Got back late last night.  Slept in 9:45 this morning.  Now I feel like half the day is wasted.  That's what I get for having a late start to a beautiful day!  It's sunny and of course, there is that blasted Oklahoma wind.  I am not sure what we are doing today.  Right now, Stephen is working on getting the calluses off the bottom of his feet.

Have I mentioned that toes freak me out?  I hate them.  I don't even like looking at my toes.  Summer time is horrible for me, seeing all of these people wear flip flops and sandals.  Gag....   I always have shoes on.  Lol.  I know, it's a bit strange.

Hope you all have a great day.  I will check back in later in the day.

Tired With Turkey Hill

I'm pretty tired tonight.  I think the strange hours at work have caught up with me.  I worked from 8 am to 8 pm tonight.  Long day.  Came home and had a yummy salad and now I am going to indulge in some Turkey Hill chocolate peanut butter cup ice cream.  This is the best I have tasted and I can't seem to find any brand out there that has chocolate ice cream with peanut butter ribboned throughout.  Why has no one come up with this yet?

Hope you all had a great day!

On A Tuesday

I went to my niece's basketball game tonight.  She is a junior at East.  My baby girl did a great job!  She scored 8 or 10 points and had just as many assists.  I am always super proud of her!

We went out to dinner after the game.  My son will be 20 years old tomorrow.  It's hard to believe I have a 20 year old now, no longer a teenager and far from being the little boy who used to sit in his mommy's lap.  I don't feel old enough to have a 20 year old.  I guess 40 isn't old or anything.  I am very glad to be this young because it means we have many more years ahead of us!   I am so proud of him.  He's such a good young man.

I worked 3rd shift yesterday. Went in at 5 pm and didn't get home until 7 am this morning.  It was a 14 hour work day.  We did some organizing and setting up in our back receiving area.  I'm glad we spent the time to get it done.  I was so tired when I got home, I couldn't fall asleep right away.  I did wake up around 2 pm and did absolutely nothing until it was game time.  I think I will watch some Netflix after reading blogs this evening.

Hope you all had a great Tuesday!

The Distance

I never thought I would be in a long distance relationship.  Being miles apart from someone you love can be unbearable at times.  It's getting harder for me to be away from my Stephen.  He has assured me he is in it for the long haul, to not rush things.  I don't feel like I am rushing anything.  We have been together for almost one and a half years.  I don't want to move in with him tomorrow, but I have thought about it being the next step.  Stephen agrees it's the next step, he just wants to make sure the timing is right.  He's totally right.  I can't just up and leave my job.  I've been with the same job for almost 20 years.  The distance just sucks.

I live in the ICT, he lives in OKC.  It's two hours from my front door to his front door.  I am the one who does all of the traveling.  His job does not allow him to travel as much and he also has a cat to take care of.  Gabby.  She's the baby.  I love her dearly.

She loves to lick the plate when we are finished eating our meals.  I am the only one who lets her.  Stephen does not.  He says I am spoiling her.  lol... Oh well.

Better get going with my day.  I am off and need to get some laundry cleaned.  Have a great day!
