Fantastic Sat.  Day 13....

9/22/2013

Yesterday did not turn out the way I thought it would.  Brian and I started the day by going on an hour and 45 min walk.  We wanted to check out this trail that's close to the house.  It's a cool trail, but it's flat.  I mean flat, as in Midwest flat.  I was hoping we'd run into the canal along the way, but water was hard to come by.  Poor Jesse went over an hour without anything to drink.  Her tongue was nearly hitting the ground.  It was so nice when we did get back to a creek.  She was in 7th heaven.  The strangest thing did happen with her on the walk.  We were walking along, and she was just ahead of us when all of a sudden she shot 2 feet straight up in the air.  At first I thought a snake got her, but she recovered okay, so we think maybe she was stung by something.  I've never seen a dog go straight up in the air like that.  She literally went sideways on the way up.  The walk was wonderful.  Brian and I talked about so much.  I love those times when you feel so close to your spouse like that, like the two of you can make anything happen.

We were open with our plans for the day.  I kind of wanted to go to the football game, but it was getting close to game time, so Brian wanted to go back to the restaurant/bar we'd been at the previous week.  Cal wanted to come with us, so we all went to a nice lunch.  Last week while we were there, I noticed all of these full cards on the wall.  Apparently they are those that have completed the 100 beer challenge.  There are 100 different beers on the card, and you get all this stuff if you complete he card.  So, last week after a couple of beers, I thought, I can do that!  I was assured you can take as long as you need (it will take me years) to complete the card.  So, of course I needed to work on my card yesterday.  After lunch, we took Cal to get his hair cut.  The stylist asked Cal if he wanted his hair colored.  Cal, of course, chose pink...  He's waiting to wash his hair until after school on Monday, so he can show off his hair at school.  That boy cracks me up.

I've been dying to go to the movies.  I haven't been in forever.  They don't have matinees during the week, so I've been unable to go.  I talked Brian into going with me yesterday.  I really wanted to see, I think it's called, "Taken."  The one with Jake Gyllenhall (yum) and Hugh Jackman.  I usually can't watch anything where kids may get hurt, but the marketing got to me this week.  Brian didn't want to see it, so we agreed on "Meet the Millers."    We had both heard great things about the movie.  We decided to go have a couple of beers before the show.  Good Lord, I'm a lightweight (ironic, I know) anymore!  In conversation, we found that the bartender knows my good friend Erin.  Oh, the stories there!  Admittedly, I was pretty looped by the time we got to the show.  The movie was good, but it didn't live up to the hype we'd both heard.  Afterward, I had Brian take an inappropriate picture of me with 3 guys in a movie poster.  Let me tell you, my husband is the worst partner in crime ever.  It took several tries, (including some that I wasn't even in) before getting a half ass picture.  It was pretty funny, though.  I text the picture to some of my friends.  Later that night, Erin text me a picture of her, "roping a little person" at a bar.  God, I have the greatest friends.  She wanted to make sure I shared it with Brian.  Too funny.

After the movie, I had Brian make a run for the border.  Taco smell....  As far as caloric intake, yesterday was a total bust.  But I will say, we had the best time!  So, I'm trying not to punish myself too much this morning.  Today is a new day.  I'm just worried I sabotaged my whole week in one day.

Yesterday was a great distraction from the stress we've had with Ryne's stomach issues lately.  His ultrasound was moved up to tomorrow.  He seems to be feeling a little better, although he won't admit it.  He still isn't eating much, though.  I pray we can get this figured out tomorrow...

Wishing you all a healthy and happy Sunday!
