…I guess you have to take the good with the bad, right?
Travis and I really enjoyed having some time to ourselves this past weekend. We are usually so busy during the week that we barely see each other or get to talk, except for the occasional supper when I’m not working late. But, this weekend, we were house sitting for Laurie while she and her family were at the beach, and it was a lot of fun. We didn’t do too much, but that made it nice. We grilled hamburgers Friday night for supper and steaks for lunch on Saturday. We watched a lot of football on Saturday and entertained Laurie’s two dogs, T-Bone and Angie. As a result, I now have “pet fever” along with “house fever”. But, the pets will have to wait until we get in a house!! Oh well :)
Alabama lost on Saturday for the first time in 29 regular season games. That’s a long streak! I was pretty disappointed, but hopefully we’ll rebound this week and play better. The Ole Miss game doesn’t start until 8 PM…pretty late!
Speaking of football, Travis and I played each other in fantasy football this weekend. Let’s just say I got killed. Before this weekend, I was 3-0 against him, so at least I still have a winning record :)
Anytime Fitness, the gym that we have memberships with, is doing a program right now called the Iron Bowl Walk-A-Thon. Apparently, Bryant Denny Stadium and Jordan Hare Stadium are 160 miles apart, so they are encouraging everyone to try to walk, run, or bike 160 miles by Thanksgiving, the day before the game. They’ve got a “map” up on the wall where they are tracking how far along everyone is. The person with the most mileage gets a free pair of running shoes, and everyone who goes at least 25 miles gets some sort of prize. I’m not sure I’ll make it the whole 160 miles, but I’m going to try! I’ve probably done about 20 miles so far. It’s a good incentive to exercise, at least!
Well, that’s it for today. Hope you all are having a wonderful Wednesday!! :)
