And no, I did not get flowers, candy or any sweet stuffed animals for Valentines Day. I did get taken out for dinner, but that's another story.
I went out with a couple of friends on Friday night. I even got the text from the Boss, "Do I need to come and give you a ride home?" Met up with a friend from work and a former classmate from high school that I haven't seen since graduation day (and that was a few years ago). Really enjoyed the evening, had a couple of great drinks at our tasting house (?) and then dinner and diet coke afterwards.
Valentines Day itself was an up at 6 am and on the road by 8 kind of day, but it was a fun one. Dizzy's meet was in the mall in Bozeman. Totally unique venue and a lot of fun. She had the meet of the year, throwing out 4 solid routines and nailing a great bar routine. Best of the year. Best all around score of the year.
Got through the meet with only a few tears of joy. (she watches to see if I wipe away tears when she finishes) Left Dizzy with a teammate to watch the next level and come home later, took Tater and the Boss out to lunch before racing home for the next event of the night.
We, being the Boss and I, went out on a date...this rarely happens! It was the annual work Christmas party that they moved to after Christmas when things weren't quite as crazy and this year fell on Valentines Day. It was fun, sat with a couple of good friends, ate some amazing prime rib and won a gift card. Not a bad night. It was just nice to have a night where the kids were fine, we had no responsibilities and good company.
Sunday was cleaning and laundry and I spent a couple hours of mindless comedy watching the TMNT movie.
Monday was spent running errands, camper shopping/looking and a touch more laundry. The Boss wants a new camper and I'm starting to be convinced. We looked at a few that were almost more expensive than our house and several that had nicer kitchens...
Here's to a great short week. I was off yesterday and also took Friday off to travel to visit friends and, oh yeah, attend another gymnastics meet. Dizzy is over the moon excited about this one, as all competitors get new matching leotards. Should be interesting!
Be Happy! Be Healthy! Be sure to manage some mischief!
