Thank you all for such lovely sentiments. I guess I just needed some me time. It was hard, bad and I cried a bunch. It just seems there has been no break in life since my dad died. Way toooooo much drama for almost four years. So this was really a good thing, it forced me to concentrate on me. I feel very refreshed now. Still don't want to go to work. Want to just stay home and play. But I am thankful so very thankful for everything Bryan and I have. Now to turn this around and really make it funny.
We decided that since Valerie has really taken to photography we would buy her a new camera body for Christmas. Found an excellent deal on a Canon T3 with a lense. It was an 800 dollar camera, and after sales and coupons we only paid a little over 300 for it. So Bryan and I decided to wait until after Christmas and take each other shopping at sales for our presents. So Friday night we went out to shop. We had places we both wanted to go. First stop Michaels, walked out didn't buy a thing, then on to Joann's to get some fabric. Again nothing, First time in history. Then we went to a couple of places Bryan wanted to go, still nothing. We end up at Walmart. I am looking at Fabric and the craft aisle and Bryan is in electronics, still nothing. Then I remember somehow a lot of our socks and underwear keep disappearing. So what do we end up getting each other. Socks and underwear. Then he looks at me and says we have entered a new phase of life. I said really does this mean socks and underwear for Christmas every year, he said nope. We are now in a phase of life where we are content we everything we have. I said nope we can't even afford what we really want. If you could have seen us in the middle of walmart having this conversation you would have thought we were crazy, because we both holding socks and underwear started laughing hysterically.
