~Saturday~
The thing about men, and other non-sense. I've been the first to stand in line [in my Journal] and espouse the fact men and women will never truly understand each other. Heck, I will admit I don't even try to understand...well, most of it. If it's not going to cause a ripple in my day, week, month, etc. why bother? Save myself some stress, right? LOL
The DH left Thurs. night going to a co-worker's home [several hrs.] away. He spent the night at this person's house and they left early Friday morning to go fish. Hey, that's cool.
Hubby comes home yesterday d-r-a-g-g-i-n-g butt. Take into consideration he has not been on the road this past week, his work load in the office has been light; yet, he felt and I understand/understood his need to get away, and encouraged it. However, he says he lay awake Thurs. night reading until midnight [he's never up that late], and was awake by 5 am, and on the lake by 5:40. Hubby comes home tired and wants to go lay down in bed. I had stripped the bed before I left for my appt.; yet, hadn't gotten around to putting on fresh linens. [Why he won't go lie down in the guest room...who knows.]
The fish weren't cooperating during the first 3.5 hrs. or so of this fishing excursion. When he called me at 9 am, they [he and the co-worker] each had caught one "baby" fish. I, of course, being a sassy pants, said "You mean you both caught the same fish, at different times?" Tee Hee
DH launches into sending me pics and text on the cell phone, repeatedly [as I'm getting ready for this appt., mind you]. Can you say "he's bored"? Finally, I text "You will never catch fish with a cell phone in your hand". Being a good man, he finally got down to the business of fishing, and stopped overloading my phone with pics of a dead calm lake. [Between the 2 of them, 7 mid-size fish were caught.]
Later in the evening as he was dozing off while trying to read the newspaper, I told him I didn't think fishing was "good" for him, as he came home so much more tired than before he left. He didn't deny it. *snickers a little* Anyway, hubby says he had a good time, and that's what matters.
As for me, I managed to get half of the house cleaning chores done before my appt. yesterday. I had errands to do after the appt., and then planned to finish the house work when I got home. As I'm in line to pay for cleaning products [first errand on the list], my daughter calls, needing Mom's ear. I ask if I may call her when I'm paid up and out of the store. I then return her call, while sitting in my car in the parking lot. I had plans to go tothe grocery store while in this shopping strip. Daughter keeps talking, the so called d-i-l starts texting me, and I'm famished. I drove home thinking, "I'll finish the phone call, fill the request of the text message, eat and go back out to finish my errands". Ha! Didn't do that, and I didn't finish the house work, either. Why is it that once I get off track now days, I find it hard to get back on? LOL Being a good girl, I do however, plan to take care of all this today, when husband pulls his fanny out of bed.
I'm nursing a bad back and allergy congestion. Getting older, can just be a pain...anywhere, and literally! I was sitting in the floor on Thurs. polishing my toe nails. When I got up from the floor, I was in some more pain. To say I felt something give/pop, etc., I can't. I don't believe I sat "funny/oddly" while in the floor; nor, do I feel I got up awkwardly. Just one of those things. This morning I awoke at 4:30, so congested, I had a headache. I don't know what was the worst scenario...trying to get out of bed[w/o screaming/moaning/groaning] or fumbling around for a decongestant in the semi-darkness. If our new bed weren't so high off the floor I could have maybe...rolled out of bed? LOL
Wishing all a lovely Saturday, spent however you like. Blessings!

I''m thinking maybe hubby was just missing you, lol...
I was just telling hubby last night I don't know where all the time goes, minus the time I spend on the computer, seems everytime I start something someone else needs something and then the day is done, and I'm not, lol...
I was going to paint my toes a week or so ago but couldn't reach them, lol...
Hope you are feeling better and enjoying your Saturday how you like!!

Oh Monica, I'm sure you wanted to shoot Sonny [with a rubber dart?], for calling you @ 6, and after he didn't heed your reminder to gas up.
I can't call the back thing a kink, cause it's bigger than that. Oh, but I look pitiful trying to rise from a chair or bed. Dang it, it really hurts! LOL Isn't it a hoot that sitting in the floor with no noticable wrong movements could cause this? Can we say, "Cindy, you have arrived at old age." LOL
I did manage to get my nasal passages opened, but the headahe is still lingering. : ( Ugh
Leave it to me, not to be appreciative of the old bed I could have rolled out of. *winks*

Sounds like fishing really did wear him out! But, he enjoyed himself and that's the main thing, right! As for understanding them - I don't even try ... not worth the headache of trying to figure them out at times.
Example - today my DH took off for work on his motorcycle. He told me last night he was out of gas. I made sure he had gas money. Does he get gas? No. He heads to work and the next thing I know at 6 AM I'm getting a phone call that he's on the side of the highway out of gas! Did he get gas on his way to work? Noooooo!
Anyway, I hope your feeling better. I too am dealing with a sore back/neck from sleeping wrong or moving wrong or just being old. ::sigh:: Oh and I'm also very congested and not happy. Luckily for me, my bed is low and I can roll out.
Have a good weekend!

I know what you mean about not being done...and I don't have 2 boys at home, nor do I work outside the home. Yet, considering those 2 facts, I somehow seem to always be busy with something or one of the "grown" kids. *winks*
Reading about your days...well, I don't know if I could keep up that pace. I admire you and your hubby greatly. : )
Yea, hubby was missing me. Considering his kids and brother are hrs. away, his mom is no longer with us...I'm not only the wife, but the best friend, the confidante', the listener...and the voice of reason, when needed. This sounds sorta "boastful", but certainly isn't the intent. He fills the same voids for me. : )
The back is still a problem, but the congestion is better. Saturday was spent finishing up housework, and putting the garage back in order. We had to use it as a storage area during the water leak mess....so it became a mess. LOL
Blessings,
Cindy
