Home again

Hubs and I had an absolutely wonderful time. We stayed at the Wyndam which is right down by the Mall and what a great place. We loved it. The rooms are beautiful, feather top mattress and feather pillows with linens smooth as silk. We felt very pampered.

The Mall was a lot of fun also, Friday it wasn’t nearly as busy as the weekends (when we’ve normally gone), that was nice also. I got a couple sweaters at the Gap and some new Doc Martens. (boots) Hubs got a sweatshirt and we got Logan an outfit to match it. So cute.

The place is so huge, with so many shops its hard to find anything-if that makes any sense. The Mall is bigger then the town I grew up in for the love of mike! *L* We usually get something for the house,for us,on our anniversary but we couldn’t settle on anything. Guess we didn’t feel we needed anything either.

We had dinner there at the Alamo, I ordered steak and baked potato, and it must’ve come from Texas. I’ve never seen a potato that big and the steak covered the entire plate. Yummy. Leftovers were good later too. Hubs had fajita’s w/ grilled, blackened chicken which was delicious also.

Basically we enjoyed just being together so much, that was great. It seemed like a long time since we’d had time away together. We needed it and I’m all better, reassured and no more worries. We came home late on Sat., around 6 and Chels wanted to stay w/ Brie again, so we had the entire weekend. Sigh. We took advantage. Hee. It was wonderful.

Had Brie and Logan out for supper tonight, Logan was dressed in little, teeny Guess jeans and a light blue polo shirt (auntie Chelsea dressed him today) and he was absolutely adorable. He looked so ‘grown up’. That child is positively munchable. He cracked us all up, he’s so dramatic and when he wakes up, the faces he makes! He doesn’t cry or fuss, only when he’s wet or hungry, as he was wanting his bottle tonight he started out with his fake cry-which I’m sorry to say makes us all laugh,wretched people that we are-then (and this is new) he stamps his little foot while screwing up his face into all kinds of grimaces and pouts. He loves standing up and especially loves it when you bounce him-then you can get a smile for sure. So he was standing up and stamping that little foot and trying his very best to cry… *L*

Brie is up and down. Still occupied too much w/ Carl on her mind-stressful, that. She’s just fine, then can be down the next minute. Normal, just gets irritating for me because I wish so much she’d be done with him. Can’t hurry life however hard I try, but ever hopeful, I wait for the day she no longer cares for him. He certainly made a huge change from being right there for Brie for the last months and all thru’ labor to going straight down the tubes after Logans birth. Responsibility of it all must’ve scared the crap right out of him. He wasted no time finding some other girl and has been partying like a fool. I look at Logan – who I cannot yet go one day with out seeing – and wonder how? How could he do that? But, I’m not a guy nor an alcoholic/addict so I really cannot understand. It just blows my mind if you want the truth.

My ex was the same way. So much so that I’ve asked God if this is some joke, putting 2 guys so alike in the picture. Why/how on earth would Brie follow my path after I got her away from that life and she had nothing to do with Brian??? Some kind of karma? Sins of the mother? Weird. Hopefully she has someone like hubs then, in her future, and I wish he’d hurry the hell up and get here!

Anyway, we had a nice dinner, and it was a great way to end out the weekend. *s* Chels and Brie had such a nice time over the weekend, another area Logan has healed. The weather was even nice and sunny, so we’ve had 4 days of fall now this year. *snort* I’ve no idea what this winter will bring. None.

My younger brother called today, just to chat, and it’s been very cold there (Montana) too. He lives in the mountains, and it’s normally milder there then here, but they’ve been around 5 degrees for the last two weeks. No snow, except up high, but unusual cold and grey skies. I realized after talking with him that we really don’t have much to say anymore. Our lives are so very different I guess…when we see each other, it’s ok, but talking on the phone is a stretch. I was actually glad to hand the phone to hubs. Bothers me a little. *shrugs* That’s the way it goes. I don’t feel ‘far’ from him, or disconnected so I guess it’s ok. Have to be I guess.

I’m just beat, can hardly put coherent words together here, I’d better hit the hay. Hope everyone had a great weekend. Have a great week!

Ta for now. 🙂
