This week has been a rather slow week...no I didn't say BAD week...just slow.
Monday was a great day! I went to the pool with Jenny and Emily to float around in the water and have good conversation with lovely people. It was a perfect afternoon of sun and laziness :) Monday evening, Jenny, Emily and I, along with our husbands had dinner together and watched "The Bachelorette" together. Well, the boys played video games while we glued to the TV. Was anyone else confused about the previews for the future weeks? We definitely were! So, next week, they'll be in Portugal, then the next week is the meet the families week (and someone has a taxidermy dad?...) and then the following week they're in Tahiti for the "Fantasy Suites" oo la la! And I guess that's where Frank does something to make Ali really really upset? Hmm... All that to say, the following weeks will be very interesting!

Tuesday was rather eventless. I made BBQ chicken kabobs that were very tasty! That was probably the highlight of my day. Food can usually brighten up my day...how sad...
Chicken and Pepper Kabobs
They were so easy! Chop up peppers, onions, pineapple, whatever you want and put in on some skewers with chicken, steak, pork, shrimp...whatever! I mixed together BBQ sauce and orange juice concentrate and brushed it on there. Then we slapped in on the grill and cooked it until the chicken was done. Oooo baby this was a good dinner! Try it!
Wednesday was also rather eventless. I did a pilates video, took Leia on a walk, went on a real walk, walked to Kroger to get a couple groceries, made poppy seed chicken, watched Prison Break with Jamie, went to the gym...nothing too exciting.
Today, Thursday, has been fun so far. I hung out at the house this morning, cleaning up, doing laundry, walking the pooch, getting car insurance figured out (yeehaw), and just chillin'. Then I went to lunch at Jim 'N' Nick's BBQ with Jenny and Emily! Mm Mm Mm yummy in my tummy! Now, I'm sitting here watching The Parent Trap, the older and better one, and writing. Then I'm going to mow and weed eat the lawn, and just wait for my cute husband to get home. Tonight, we'll have left overs and go to the gym.
No plans for the weekend. Probably just hang out and find somewhere to watch fireworks :)
Today, as I was cleaning, I kept doing odd things that made me think, "Wow Abby...you're really weird!" So, here are a few odd things about me that you may or may not know...for those of you who remotely care:
1. Whenever I pull the drawstrings of a trash bag together, I gag. I get nervous thinking about the horrid smell that is about to puff into my face!
2. I have a legit fear of feet. I'm not kidding. Please don't think you're funny if you put your feet on me. I will not laugh...and I just might remove you from my Facebook friend list :)
3. I LOVE the sound of sucking up a lot of dirt whenever I vacuum. I feel as though it was a successful vacuuming experience.
4. I enjoy the smell of gasoline.
5. I fidget for about 30 minutes before actually falling asleep every night. I scratch every itch. Make sure my night nights are straight and not twisted. I flip my pillow to the cold side. I scrunch the covers to hold onto them. I clear my throat like 90 times. It just takes me a while to get my act together. Sorry, Jamie...
6. I breath in and out at a very rapid pace before I kill a bug...that's just my nervous bug killing breathing treatment I guess. I just get freaked out.
7. I get emotionally invested in certain characters on TV or movies...I feel as though we're friends.
8. I feel sorry for worms who don't quite make it across the sidewalk, and they fry up and die right there. I don't like them at all, but I do kinda feel sorry for their lack of survival on hot days.
9. I like to smell Leia when she wakes up. Her "wake up" smell is just yummy!
10. I love workout videos. Don't judge.
I realize that I'm rather boring, but I'm kind of bizarre too. There are those days that Jamie will look at me and say, "Gosh you're weird". Well the same can go for him too, I suppose :)
Anyway, I hope you all have an EXCELLENT Thursday and lovely 4th of July weekend! Hopefully, my weekend is a little more exciting than the slow week I've had. God bless!
