Birthday part 2

Today was pretty awesome!  Saturdays usually are.  I really needed today to start out with me sleeping in, but I didn't get my wish.  Kitten was needing some attention around 1:50 this morning.  I could hear her rummaging around in the window shades and apparently wanted to see what 1:50am looked like outside.  I opened it for her and headed back to bed.  She came in a few hours later, wanting to climb and sniff my face.  I kicked her out because I needed to get back to sleep.  She scratched at the door and really bugged me most of the night.

Tyler got up at some point in the morning, to go off and work for a while.  I stayed in bed and was once again disrupted by my sweet little kitty.  This time she wanted to get under the blanket.  Eventually she settled down in the little nest I made for her.  And there we slept until Tyler came to wake us up.

Most of the day was spent relaxing.  It was a really awesome day for relaxing.  It was raining all day long.  We had planned on taking the little jailed puppy out for a walk but since it was raining, we didn't want to get the pup all wet and then stick her back in her room all wet.  It didn't seem fair.

There was an Oiler game on at 11am so we watched that while I planned the weeks menu.  I didn't do a very good job this week.  I could only muster 3 meals so I'm hoping we don't totally starve when the food runs out.

I made my second birthday mixture.  This time it was an oreo concoction that was so good once we finally ate it.

We really didn't do too much today, but it was really awesome to be able to relax with Tyler.  We ate some leftovers and threw some old leftovers out the door.  We had some really old turkey that we needed to get rid of.  We threw it off our deck and right away, we had a large gathering of sea gulls, ravins and crows.  I like it when animals crowd together.  I think it's pretty cute, even though they are dirty old gulls.

Our day was capped off by our friend coming over for a birthday party.  We played phase 10 and ate some cake and laughed a lot.  It was a pretty good evening.

And now we sit here, looking forward to another weekend day, another Sunday to remember just how blessed we are to be where we are with each other.  I'm loving life out here right now.  But I am also very much looking forward to weekends we can spend with family and friends back home again.  I have also gotten into a habit of looking at homes for sale on the internet.  It's fun to think about moving home and living in a real house.

Looking forward to tomorrow!
