And How Was Your Weekend?

Ours was good! Except it's getting really, really cold in North Carolina. Everyone back in Massachusetts always thinks that North Carolina is sunny and warm all the time. And it's not. Not even close! Yesterday it was 38 degrees but felt like 28 degrees...and it was only 6 degrees colder in Massachusetts!

Friday night me and Danny had a looooong overdue date night. We went to Ruby Tuesday (yes, I went twice in one week...it's just so good!) We each got a glass of wine, and I was so excited for my dinner. Lobster carbonara...it was so so so yummy! We really got into chatting that even when the meal was done, we ordered another glass of wine and stuck around for a little longer. With his new schedule we hardly ever get to eat together...so this was much needed.

Then we went to the pet store to do some early Christmas shopping for Miley. She is officially the proud owner of a muzzle and anxiety drops (it's like lavender, all natural stuff.) She got a few toys too. And I just had to hold the little basset hound that was there...he was only eight weeks old and crying so loud, it broke my heart! If Miley was more well behaved we definitely would have ended up with another dog that night!

 We met up with Jennifer and Dustin for some drinks. We had such a great time just hanging out with the two of them. Even though we've all hung out a bunch of times, we're always on opposite ends of the table or in different conversations so it was nice to just hangout with them for once! We had a bunch of beers and the next thing I knew I was home, eating the rest of my pasta...and passing out. Apparently I've turned into a lightweight!

Needless to say I wasn't feeling to good Saturday morning! Me and Danny were lazy for a few hours and watched a movie...and I took the first nap of the day. We went to a Christmas party on base and went to the winery for some Christmas presents. When we came back we decided to watch another movie...and I took another nap. I never nap...in fact I was known as the Nap Nazi in college. I felt so sick when I woke up, which sucked because I was supposed to be going out for Mrs. P's birthday. Instead, Danny tucked me into bed super early and I passed out.

I woke up feeling much Sunday morning. We did some cleaning, grocery shopping, and lounging around. I think we have decided that when our lease is up in March we're going to stay here. So, some rearranging, painting and getting a screen door is in order!

Sunday night me and Miley watched cheesy Lifetime movies and were super lazy. Much needed!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!
