It's raining, it's pouring.

 It's nasty outside; never nice for a Monday when I'm moody by default. Go way, rain!

Friday, I came straight home from work at 3:30 to hang with the hubby, who was home waiting for the AC repair dude. Our AC was clogged and leaking (it's in our attic, so it caused a rainstorm in our house) and cost over $100 to repair, whomp whomp! I then headed out, got some coffee at Khols, some food at Publix, and we had some tasty grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner :) We then watched a few episodes of Breaking Bad and went to bed amazingly early!

Saturday, we woke up and had some coffee, orange juice, waffles, sausage, and fruit for breakfast - DELICIOUS! We then headed out for a day of productivity. We looked at cribs and strollers at Babies R Us:

Current favorite crib: Davinci Emily in Cherry

Current favorite stroller: Chicco Cortina in any color!
We went to Michaels to get a new frame for our wedding guestbook (we had it hanging at the end of the hallway, leak from the AC was coming out of the attic, Josh accidentally slammed his knee into the frame while getting into the attic, ended up with a bloody knee and a broken frame - series of unfortunate events), went to Bed Bath and Beyond to look at nursery shelving (nobody has good shelving these days, yeesh), and went to Old Navy for about two seconds before evacuating due to crazy "tax-free" shoppers. We had a tasty lunch at a new sub place in the mall. We then headed to Home Depot to get new globes for our living room ceiling fan light (old ones were fugly dust collectors). We ended up getting a new ceiling fan for the nursery while we were there (old one was wobbly and unsafe). We went home to play with our new things. 

The frame should have been a piece of cake for me to put together. Nope. Apparently it wasn't made for a matted print, so it took forever to squeeze it in there. Poor Josh had an awful time with the fan. We had to go to Ace Hardware for a bolt that was missing, then we lost a screw inside the fan and I had to go there again for a magnetic screw getter thingy, and once the fan was all assembled and in the ceiling, the fan wouldn't work and we had to undo everything to discover wiring had come undone. Guys, it was awful. We were exhausted and ate some chicken fingers for a lazy dinner.

Sunday, we had the same amazing breakfast :) We then cleaned a bit and relaxed. We decided the globes we got for the living room fan were ugly so we went back to Lowe's for different ones. They didn't have the lightbulbs we needed, so we ended up at Home Depot once again for bulbs. I went into so many manly stores this weekend it felt like an episode of Tool Time. We had grilled cheese for lunch and just relaxed around the house, watching some more Breaking Bad. We were still feeling lazy and got pizza for dinner and watched the Olympics until bed time.

Now, it's Monday, and I'm not pleased. I would have loved another weekend day with the hubby. He's going to California to visit Doug in a few weeks and I'm going to be so lonely without him, wah wah. Who wants to visit me for a weekend? ;)
