[I need a] Beer With My Friends

~Kenny Chesney & Old Dominion

I’ve probably used this song, as a title, already. It was in my head, and it’s appropriate, so I used it. Likely for the second time 😆

Yesterday, Jackie and I went and did a little shopping. I needed to return a couple things to Kohl’s, that didn’t fit the kids right. Then, we went to a couple of craft stores. I found some stuff to use for future projects. When we got back here, Jackie and I crafted. The boys grilled chicken for us. I made macaroni and cheese, with melty, runny cheese, to dip the spicy chicken into. I also made some lemon pepper green beans. It was all delicious! After supper, the boys watched a football game, while Jackie and I went back downstairs to craft.

I’ve got our front porch set up cute 😊
Made this yesterday, too.

I slept a little better, last night. I didn’t do quite as much tossing and turning. Except for, at some point during the night, Adam grabbed onto my behind, and squeezed. It woke me up, and I hollered, OWIEEE! He’s been known to sleep talk, and he regularly gets “handsy”, without even realizing it. More than once, I’ve woken up and thought, ooh maybe he wants some midnight action! Only to discover, he’s fast asleep.

Adam was in a great mood, yesterday. Work has been going real well, for him. He’s got a new truck ordered, that’ll be here sometime between March and May of next year. He’s excited about that. I’ve been looking into a few different local craft fairs, coming up. I thought maybe Jackie and I could be one of the vendors, and sell some of our stuff. Whether I actually make any money, or not, it’s a lot of fun. I’ve already made several gifts for family and friends, I intend to give them for Christmas. I’m working on a cute height chart, for Pj.

I made these for Jackie’s sister. She just got her own place. She was showing me her double closets, and since she’s single, she called them “hers and hers” closets. I got the idea to make these for her. She loved them 😊

Jackie is heading over here, soon. We’re going to hang out, and craft, until the boys get home. Jackie is cooking us all beef stroganoff, tonight. Later, we’re planning to set up our cornhole boards, and play several rounds. Of course, Jackie and I always win the majority of our games of cornhole. She has a notebook she’s been keeping track of our scores on. There hasn’t been a night yet, where we didn’t beat the guys, overall. Last year, Jackie and I played a game against some strangers, at a bar. There was a crowd watching. One person attempted to walk in front of us, and someone else stopped him. He yelled, “Hey man! They’re professionals! Stay out of the way!” Jackie and I still laugh about that!

Sunday, we’re all going to make a trip to Costco. It’s been a trip we make, every 6 weeks or so, to restock on some bulk food and household items. It can easily be an expensive excursion. Adam and I spent over $600, last time. Most of the stuff in our buggy, was things Adam put in there, though. His eyes always get big, when there’s lots of meat varieties he can get to grill. It isn’t a bad thing, anyhow, because our freezer gets stocked, and we don’t need to buy any meat for a good while. Groceries are so expensive, anyway. I suppose it’s just the spending so much at once, on groceries, not something fun, but groceries, that makes me groan.

Besides all that, I don’t have much to write about today. It’s a beautiful day, here. I put on some high waisted jeans, and a white crop top t-shirt. I have a tiny hair straightener, I use on my bangs. My hair is naturally curly, and I don’t straighten it often. I just sprayed some sea salt spray in my hair, and let it do its thing. I have gotten lots of compliments on my new bangs, though!

I’m a little sweaty. I’ve been painting a big project of mine. I took a break, so I could sit a minute, and write in my blog. I’m diggin’ the new look, though 🙂

I also got my dress, for Jackie and Justin’s wedding! It arrived, this morning. I’m waiting on Jackie to get here, before I try it on. I think it’ll be super cute! We’re having such a blast, with this wedding planning. As fast as I know time flies, nearly a whole year feels like a long time to wait for something we’re all so excited to get to!
