marking it on the calender

Another rainy Monday!  I just got done hauling out the garbage in the rain.    Where the hubby had parked his work truck for the weekend , was covered in mud.   He brought the truck home Saturday night covered in mud.  And all of the rain yesterday, washed the mud onto the blacktop.  I had to use a snow shovel to push all of the mud off the driveway.   Sheesh!

I told the hubby last night I am keeping track of rain days on the calender.  They sure cover more days, than sunny ones at this point!

We had a different kind of weekend.    The hubby got rained out on Friday.  I knew Thursday night he was probably going to declare it. He had told me of the things he would like to go and do on Friday.   While I was getting my self ready to go Friday morning, his stepson calls asking if he can come for a couple of days.   Then the ex-wife gets on the phone to tell J what a jerk the stepson has been.  Hitting her, pushing her around.  His own mom that took his baby and him in.    J proceeds to tell the kid he can’t come here.  If he would do that to his own mom, he could never trust him alone in the house with me.

Long story short, we decided maybe the kid just needs a break from all of the craziness that surrounds him.  he can come for 2 days.  In the meantime, we are shopping.  Trying to find a down comforter for the bed.  After all the craziness of this one calling and that one calling, we find out the cops got called and the stepson is in jail.    What the hell is wrong with these people?

So J’s nice day he was looking forward to having turned out stressful for him.

Saturday he had to go back to work.   I cleaned around the house.  Spent way to much time on the computer.   J came home, and we decided to go up town, have a few beers, then bring something home for supper.    Back at home the hubby had the great idea to enjoy something we haven’t done in over a year, sit in our big jacuzzi bath tub.   I tease him all the time how it is a pain to clean the dumb thing when we never use it.    He ran it full of water, grabbed the bubbly out of the fridge, and we sat in there until our toes were pruney! Sure forgot how relaxing that is.

Yesterday we awoke to sunshine,  I even got a few things hung out on the cloths line.   J has decided he needs to lose 10 pounds. Something he read about men with belly fat have smaller erections okay whatever, so we went for a nice brisk walk.   And after that, we went to meet the son and his girlfriend for Chinese food. lol…..

Somehow the hubby had gotten it in his head we need and ipod.   After lunch we searched a few stores, and found and ipod touch. The funny thing neither one of us could even figure out how to get the dumb thing out of its packaging.

Back home I finally figured out how to upload the program from the computer, and even bought a song off of itunes.   

Then to help the hubbys weight loss, we oredered pizza bread, bread sticks, and poppers to be delivered.  My poor stomach hurt so bad by the time Desperate Housewives was over.   And as we climbed into bed, we could hear the rain hitting the sky light in the bathroom.

I need to hit the grocery store today.  Find some healthy things for this week.   Laundry again.   And try to download some cds onto the ipod.   The rest of the week doesn’t look to interesting.  Maybe a rumage sale on Friday.

I hope the step-son’s situation didn’t just get blown out of proportion…and that they all learn a lesson to avoid this type of thing from ever happening again. Sounds like quite a mess…… The hot tub sounds nice, but I can imagine the work to clean it afterwards. We have a whirlpool tub, but Denise doesn’t like using it for the same reason… Love the way you ‘helped’ thehubby with his weight issue…and I never heard that one before. Where in the world did he get that from? Hee Hee Hee. I guess maybe I should focus more on dropping that five pounds I’ve been saying I’d lose for the last ten years…… You have a good time grocery shopping, if that’s possible. I can just imagine you deciding if each item is the ‘right’ one for your hubby’s needs…..too funny.

Random noter, sort of. I found you on another friend’s notes. This whole entry was funny. Especially the delivery diet foods. A little bit like Nutrisystem, wasn’t it? Every Tuesday you can download a free song and video from the itunes store. The last two weeks have been lame but every once in a while they will be giving away something worth listening to.

what a shame that this boy can’t get it together. it’s so sad and so hard on everyone around. sigh. i’m sorry. i think it’s dr. oz, that pointed out that erection thing. he said that for overweight men, every 10 pounds they lose, is an inch of penis? not sure about that. i’m thinking that when they lose, you can just “see” more of it? lol. i don’t know. i just did that healthy…

Thank you. I really appreciated your comment on my entry. 🙂 We are getting a lot of rain here too. It’s always a wild, windy and rainy NZ spring. I laughed when I read about the belly fat and smaller erections. The things that occupy men’s minds!! haha. Hope it works out with your stepson.
