A Week in Review

It's been quite a week let me tell you!

My husband returned from his business trip to a wonderful Birthday Surprise. I tried!
I was on a mission when the clock at work hit 5.
His flight was expected in for 8:30pm so I had plenty of time IF I skipped my pole class. So, I did.
Headed straight to the Superstore to find him a cake. Already knew what I had in mind: something light and fluffy. Lol Strawberry Shortcake. 

                                                     

For the sake of time, I decided to grab a rotisserie too. Then, hit the local dollar store for some decorations. 

Not even 5 minutes after getting in the house he calls to say he has landed. WTH?  An hour early. My oh my. He said he'd call me like he usually does when he gets in the car but I had to tell him, "NOOO, I'M BUSY!"  How is that for making him suspicious. Haha. Then, I started running around the house to do my thing. Cook food to go with chicken, decorate, light some candles and get into something more comfortable. Lol. Then it was lights out and soft music on as I waited.   VOILA!!  Welcome home!

                                             

As part of his gift, I took him to an NFL Game. Buffalo vs Atlanta. He loves football so it was all good. He was happy, and that makes me happy. But let me tell you how I almost messed things up on game day. Lol

Apparently the NFL has some new rules to follow for spectators. 2013 Stadium Bag Policy Who knew? Lol We parked the car and walked several blocks to the dome through the underground PATH system. Took about 30 minutes. Hey... It's our favorite place to park and we could use the exercise. Lol At the gate a lady coming out of the crowd kindly informs me what she has been informed: No purses! WTH? I had this big ole bag on my shoulder. Not sure why I just didn't leave it in the car. Guess it's because it took me a long time to learn to carry a purse in the first place, that I stick with it now. Lol. 

But I figured everything would be ok because I knew at one point they had lockers in the train station, so we doubled back to the train station nearby. Figured NO PROBLEM!

Well, it was. Apparently we found out that they had removed the lockers after 9/11. Where have I been? Lol. Not taking the train, that's where! What was the only option? Walk all the way back to the car! Ugh. I swear I was trying to think of where I could HIDE my purse instead. Lol. No lie. I was mad at myself for causing us to be late for the game now. Furman was cool but I was hot. He walked back with me of course. Quite the gentleman. I told him he could watch the game while I returned to the car and back, but he wasn't having that. Gotta love him. So, we missed the 1st quarter as we hustled to rid my arm of my oversized purse. At least oversize for the stadium. 

Doesn't the NFL know that us Canadians are friendly? lol

All in all, it was ok.... The game went into overtime and after some stupid errors, Buffalo lost. 

Well, i'll quit here because i'm on a short lunch break today. Just wanted to highlight the events of the last week since I hadn't blogged. My husbands birthday!! He caught up to me. Yes...I'm older but not by much.

Happy hump day everybody!

and God Bless!!
