Is it seriously already Monday again? Sheesh, where did the weekend go? At least it's almost February and one step closer to the ACC releasing their football schedules. Any day now I will have a wedding date. I feel like I have been waiting an eternity, but really it's only been a month. Ok, ACC- sooner is better than later, so let's hop to it!
Moving on. This weekend was great, but ti went by way too quickly! On Saturday I worked at JTT for the Sidewalk Sale, and then we celebrated my dear friend, Carolyn's birthday on Saturday night. Happy birthday, Carolyn! (A few days late) Yesterday, WEG and I were pretty lazy for most of the morning, but I did make breakfast and do my taxes- can't wait to get the refund! It was beautiful out yesterday (unlike today which is gross), so we loaded up Abe and headed down to the country to let him run around. Unfortunately, there was someone at the pond where WEG hunts, so we weren't able to let him out. Instead, we drove around and looked at land that was for sale in the area. We'd really love to move to the country because neither one of us are city folks. We both grew up in small, rural places and have the itch to get back to somewhere like that. It's not going to happen anytime soon, but we're definitely on the lookout for several (or more) acres for sale at a reasonable price. And, we're absolutely not in the market for children any time soon, but when we are, we definitely do not want to raise them in Columbia. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that, but it's just not for us. But, I digress. So after riding around looking at land, we stopped by a friend's house who lives out there, Abe was finally able to run around for a bit, and then we headed back to Columbia so I could grocery shop (creature of habit, remember? Sunday is grocery day) and we could eat dinner.
All in all, it was a great weekend! And, as an added bonus, I paid off my credit card this morning. No more credit card debt hanging over my head. What a great feeling! Now, I just have to pay off the student loan I have. Remind me again why I wanted that Master's degree in Retail?
Sorry for the disjointed post- it's the way my mind is working today. Have a great week, everyone!
Oh my goodness - I can't WAIT until I pay off my credit cards. Yes, multiple. Too many. Must feel GREAT!! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteBahaha...the part about your masters made me laugh. When people ask me what my bachelors is in, I usually tell them "The worlds most useless degree". I guess it's not useless if you LOVE retail, but you'd have to be crazy to LOVE retail.
ReplyDeleteI know you can't wait to pick a date! October 22 is really full around here (3 people I know are getting married that day) but I hope something good lands on the schedule!
Michael and I are always talking about retiring with a big piece of land so we can have a hound dog rescue. Love those dogs! I paid off my car last month, one medical bill the month before and another medical bill this month! I love it! Then I remember the masters degree I'm working on and the undergrad loans. Ugh. Gotta keep telling myself it is all so I can get a better job.
ReplyDeleteOnce I set my date I got everything booked so fast. Best feeling ever being able to say "On such and such date I will be part of a bigger whole."
Hooray for paying off your credit card debt - that's awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious - why wouldn't you want to raise your kids in Columbia? Just curious!
