Any way, today was great, although, since when is a Saturday not great. No matter what you do during this day, it's always great. It just always works out like that and that's one of the reasons I love this day. Here are a few reason's why today was just so great:
1) Sleeping in. I slept in until 9:30. Tyler woke up at 7 and laid in bed until 9. He finds it harder and harder to actually sleep in now that he's a full time working man. I finally got out of bed at 9:30, even though I really wanted to just sleep some more. After eating breakfast of, yup you guessed it, Special K, we made out the menu for the week.
2) Menu making. It's our typical Saturday adventure of picking out what we want to eat next week. It's kind of a bad habit to buy food on a Saturday, since that gives us the opportunity to eat all the special foods on a boring day. Luckily, today was not a boring day. It's getting more and more difficult to pick out dinners for the week. It's a good thing we have a ton of salmon in the freezer so we can experiment with some recipes that include something other then chicken.
3) No work. Of course, this one is obvious, but with no work comes a lot of play. Today the weather was so nice that it felt like summer. After last night, we decided to go for a walk with Ryan (the locum doctor), Kendra (the pharmacy tech) and the two of us. We went up to the town reservoir for the start of our hike. We then walked past it and went along the shore of the lake that was dammed up. We came across a board walk that took us around and through the forest and water. At some points of this board walk, it was so rickety that we all thought we would fall into the calm water. It was so beautiful around there. Most of the trees that were growing in the water, were all dead and had no branches attached. We will put up some pictures tomorrow because it was truly beautiful. It was also super fun to go for a hike with those people. They are great to hang out with. The end of the trail led out to a road that's in the middle of town. What's kind of funny is that we have walked past the entrance of that trail many times. Tyler has always wanted to go in there, but it's always been too scary. This trail entrance is really dark and shadowy, and not that I believed this, there is a spray painted message on the ground that says, "Boogieman lives here". It didn't really scare me, but you know, you can never be too careful.
4) Frisbee. After our hike, we went to the school field and tossed the frisbee around. The only unfortunate thing about playing frisbee is that only Ryan really knew how to pass it so it reached the intended person. The rest of us kind of tried and it would only some times be successful. It was still fun though. It was about 20 degrees out today, and after our hike, we were all pretty thirsty. so we soon called it quits on the frisbee tossing.
5) Relaxing. I love relaxing with Tyler on a day where there is no work. We came home and drank a ton of water. Then we relaxed in the hammock, watching the water. I brought Kitty out in her red harness and she walked around tentatively at first, then she wanted to go everywhere. Our neighbors have a pretty huge dog, named Ty which I thought was funny, and he's always on their back deck. He likes to bark and I didn't want Kitty to be scared. She sat with Tyler on the hammock for a while. Then I brought her inside again. It was actually a little too hot to be sitting outside, so we came inside and relaxed some more.
We were invited to go out to Shearwater again tonight, but we didn't have any cash to pay for the seabus and we wanted to just spend some more time together. Also, they were going over at 8 for dinner and we didn't want to eat that late again.
The rest of our night was really awesome. We made some dinner, lazed around together. It was all very great.
Today was awesome. It's always great to have lots of fun with new people and with Tyler. I love spending all my spare time with Tyler. It makes me so happy.
Now, to sit back and enjoy some more time with Tyler and Kitty. Kitty has just walking around, being a little turkey.
Enjoy the rest of Saturday and tomorrow as well.
