Back to life.

Well, today was a great day to sleep in with the hubby, no need to wake children up for school, no early rising, nothing but sleeping in till our bodies carried us out of bed.  The ritual for the children on the weekends is to wake up and immediately play the Xbox.  Once my hubby and I were up and about it was off to town we went to visit a few places of business like Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, and Hy-Vee (a few of them), to get food and other items.  Sam's was packed!  It felt like Christmas season when I walked in there, and then my thoughts were quickly to getting our stuff and getting out.  Thankfully enough the line going out was not a backed up when we left as it was when we arrived.  Wal-Mart was about as packed, but it's Wal-Mart!  The only time it isn't packed is at 2am!  I was really happy when we went to Hy-Vee to see they still sold the fizzle skittles!  Wal-mart doesn't sell them anymore.  So we basically bought candy there and rented a few movies from the redbox.  We went to another Hy-Vee to check out their meat.  They had pineapple brats!  They are so yummy!  So we cleaned them out of those to create a supply for us here!  If you have not tried their flavored brats you definitely need to!!!

Then it was back home.  It was great to get back out into the land of the living after being "in the house" all week long, and it was really great to get out with my hubby finally after trying unsuccessfully to get to a movie for the past few days, going to get food was just fine too.  It's always good when the two of us can spend some alone time together.  I love laughing with him.  Tomorrow we're going to the comedy club and hopefully laugh all night long!  I can't wait!!
