The weekend that was all about Fall coming in....

Did Fall come visit everyone this weekend?

It sure showed its face to us!  It was in the 90's all week long last week - & then Friday, the rains came & then Saturday - BRRRRR!!!!! & the gloom & rain just stuck with us all weekend, causing that cold CHILL in the air. Yep - Fall came right on time.

Friday kicked off with Ricky & I meeting up for an early dinner on our way home from work.  We both were stuck in traffic & neither one of us had lunch because of busy days so we were starving - so we just decided to get out of traffic & head down to Penn Station & get some grub.

I'm glad we actually stopped because that's when the storms came through - it was CRAZY raining.  Like you could see the rains moving across the ground & the winds were howling & the electric was blinking.  We were stuck in a building where we had fries & an ever abundant refill of lemonade - we were good.

After finally making it home, we were all just glad it was the weekend. Dogs included. They totally know when its the weekend. & they love it as much as we do.

I snuggled in & tried to watch the new show on Netflix that I keep seeing everywhere - Maniac.

I love me some Emma Stone so was excited about it.... but yeahhhhhhhh... no.

I just couldnt get into it. I was so lost - so confused - & then I just didn't care. I gave it 2 full episodes & about 3/4 of the way into the 3rd episode, I just felt like watching a show shouldnt be this much work or feel like this much torture - so I gave it up.  Sorry not sorry.  I kept seeing online where people were saying it was so amazing they loved it.  Good for you if you are one of those people. I'm a simple minded gal & does this reflect on my mental genius or anything? Who know - & better yet, Who cares!

I ended up turning it off & turning on New Girl.... started back from the beginning... & man, this is my speed. I forgot how funny this show is.  I stopped watching it when the show got moved to Hulu? Something happened to it - so I havent seen all of it-  but I have loved started back at the beginning.  I love Jess.

Saturday, I got up with intentions to go to Home Depot with the hubs to get some lumber, but the rain came in & he didnt want to get the wood wet so I ended up just cleaning my kitchen & doing some laundry - the usual Saturday stuff.

I took some time to do another Bible Journaling page from our scripture we talked about on Wednesday with our HSM group....

& then I did the good wife thing & made Ricky some brownies with cookies on top.  He loves his brownies.  I'm just not that much of a brownie person.  Weird. I love chocolate - but I dont care for brownies or chocolate cake.   Give me chocolate candy or chocolate icing - anything oozy & gooey with chocolate - or something that melt in my mouth.  Cake? Nope  But he wanted brownies & gooey for me was the bowl to lick. Win Win for both of us.

I took my momma out to the Dollar Store to pick up some cat food & drinks. We were going to drive up to Wal-mart for a different outing but it was just so yucky with the cold rain. We just stayed close to home instead.

I ended up finishing up my book Beartown with the cold, rainy weather... & wow.... how did I wait so long to get to this book? So good.

You can see the chocolate on my shirt from where I made the brownies - haha

& then before I know it, Saturday is gone.  & I pulled up Netflix to finally start into Season 2 of Anne with an E.  I love that show so much & have delayed watching Season 2 because I dont want it to be over & have to wait another year for the next season.  But I couldnt take it any longer. Finally diving in.

Sunday - what a messed up day. 

I just couldnt sleep. I dont know if I was having panic attacks or what - I woke up around 2am & felt like I couldnt breath. It was terrifying.  I got up & walked around, got some water - couldnt lay back down... it was awful.  So I did what I knew to do best - turned on Netflix to make myself laugh & watch more New Girl.  It worked.  It relaxed me & I dozed back off around 4:00am... & woke up again at 6:00am & fell back asleep around 6:30am & then finally got up at 8:30 so I could get ready for church.

Needless to say, my day was messed up. I just felt so BLAH with the on-off-on-off sleep. Plus, it was still gloomy & rainy & I always say I am solar powered so my energy level was zapped. & naps make me feel funny - so when I took 2 small naps after I got home from church?..... I just felt horrible all day long.

This is an accurate picture of me all day on Sunday

The rest of Sunday was about getting my nails shaped up - getting some things laid out for the week - some reading - some handlettering - some loving on my dogs, especially my little 18 year old blind guy...

& here we are... back to Monday!
