I was so lazy all day yesterday but it felt great and was SO needed. After I had made a huge list of things to do and ways I could spend the whole Saturday, I think I spent most of the day on my sofa.
I did clean my kitchen yesterday and get a few things organized. I also registered for a 5K next month, the running group's "graduation" race, and I posted it on our group's calendar. Plus I sent out an overdue email to the 600 members of the group too. But there were plenty of things on that list I didn't do.
I never vacuumed, cleaned the bathroom, dusted, went for a run, did an ab & an arm workout. Two things on the list I managed to do... watch some shows on-demand and take a nap. :)
Last night I finally moved off the sofa around 5:45 to hop in the shower. Ended up being about 15 minutes later than I thought to get to the boyfriends house. When I got there, he had to return a work truck he used to pick up some gym equipment he bought. So we took a ride in this HUGE truck back to his work to switch. Weird being in something that big when I'm already used to his little 2-seater Mercedes convertible. I like his little car. In the truck I could feel every bump.
Originally we were going to go into Boston for another feast, but I really wasn't up for something like that. After we switched to his car, we just went to a local restaurant/bar, had a couple of drinks and got something to eat. Now that he got more gym equipment, he's moving on to finishing up the remodeling I guess. He was on his phone looking up microwaves... the over the counter ones. Not sure how he has lived in this place for about a year without a microwave, when he always has leftovers!
Then we ended up at Home Depot looking but they didn't have them in stock. With the tax free holiday, the shipping date was about 2 weeks out since they had been so busy all day. For a $250 microwave?? I think he should just build a shelf and get any old one. It isn't over the range.. that's on an island. So he doesn't need the fan. But not my kitchen and not my money. If he wants to spend that much money to get a microwave with the hinges and all... so be it.
He suggested ice cream again. Damn do I have a problem with ice cream! No will power AT ALL! We went to a place I had never been to. Its right next to my gym and I know the gym is 2 1/2 miles from my house. They sell Richardson's at this place too! Now I'm really in trouble! At least it is already mid August and not early summer. If I knew Richardson's was this close in June, I would have gained 15 pounds this summer! This time I got Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream. SO yummy. :)
We went back to his house after that to finish watching the movie from the night before, then went to bed. We were both pretty tired, and feel asleep right away. I think I slept with his arms around me the entire night. It was really cool.
I'm just really really happy with him. This is such a great relationship for me. He really makes me happy. I have fun with him, he can always make me laugh and I feel so unbelievably comfortable with him. I never feel judged by him and I can tell him anything at all. I feel safe with him.. not just physically either. When we are in bed and spooning with my back up against his chest and he has one arm under my neck and the other over my waist, I'm just wrapped up in him. I tell him every time that laying like that is my favorite. That's how I slept half the night last night. Just wrapped up in his arms.
He is an amazing guy. He listens when I talk, he lets me vent when I'm stressed, he likes to have fun and is active. And he has his own things, his own interests, his own life. We both have our own things, but have great times together too.
I left his house about 8:30 this morning to come home and take care of my cats. Now they are off napping somewhere and I've been on the sofa, online, for a while. Being lazy again. But I'm comfortable and so relaxed. I'm content. And I'm just happy.
I do have to move at some point. I'm going to mom's house this afternoon for dinner. I think she mentioned something about shopping too but I don't remember. I'll have to change the litter box and take out my trash, shower and head up to mom's. That's all I have for today, which is nice. Maybe a nap this morning too, before I start to get ready.
Things are really good. Work is stressful and can get me edgy during the week, but the 2 days on the weekends are perfect. After I leave the office at 5 on Friday, I'm usually good by 6.. enough time to let it all go and think about the fun over the weekend.
Hopefully this upcoming week won't be too crazy or too stressful. I need to stay on top of my running, which I skipped this weekend AGAIN. Long runs alone aren't fun. I'm thinking I need to run with my friend Carrie next weekend, instead of attempting it alone. But with all the running, pilates, elliptical, yoga and everything, it helps with my stress during the week and keeps me really busy. Plus seeing the boyfriend. And that just puts a smile on my face! :)
Ok, time to see what I can or want to do for the next 2 hours. Happy Sunday and Life is Good.
