Today Was A Good Day

Today was a good day! Or I guess I should say that yesterday was. Saw the doctor for my 6 month check-up deal. Got some other medical things taken care of while I was there. Got my flu shot! Doc decided to draw some blood while I was there, so now both my arms are tender lol But after all that fun...


Mom and I had lunch at "The Birthday Sizzler" (which is actually a steak house called Western Sizzlin that does a special on birthdays so families often go, hence the name). They have this veggie soup that I just love. Had a big plate of salad, bowl of that delicious soup, some Italian meatballs and lots of veggies. Oh and some cheesecake hehe


Afterwards, we did a little shopping. Mostly window shopping, but it's still fun. I did pick up a few things: couple of things we needed for the house, couple of books, a few little Christmas gift items, a shirt and a dress (both on sale for $5...You can't beat $5!). I've been on a dress kick for awhile. It's cute. It's dotted swiss (aka swiss dots!) and cut in a way I like, so it was a win-win-win for me!


Came home and had mercy taken on me and my poor arms lol I didn't have to cook! BK may not be gourmet food, but man that burger was good! Sometimes a girl just needs a double cheeseburger! lol Bro stopped by to help cut down the tree. An on-going project/problem for Joe. Personally, I liked the tree, but whatever. It's nothing but a super short stump now.


And the strangest bit: We cleaned the bathroom. I know that doesn't sound like that much fun or something that would make a day "good" but it's nice to do things together. I don't think I've been so happy cleaning in awhile. I doubt the boy-wonder felt the same lol but that is ok.


Had a nap (always a plus!) did some internetting and just read a few chapters. Good end to a good day.


Next on the agenda: Girl's night out on Friday (assuming Angie doesn't cancel on me. It happens). And then Saturday, my brother's bff and long time friend of our family is getting married! I like weddings. It gives me a good excuse to get all dressed up and then socialize lol I'm wondering if thier son will be there / be in the wedding? He's young so IDK. I'm wondering mostly though, because I'm hoping my neice will be there. Forget being mommy or daddy's girl, I think Ellie should be Auntie's girl. I love that kid!


Unrelated Note: Watched Thor the other day. Gotta watch them all before The Avengers movie comes out. Anyway, ladies, if you like shirtless hunks, there's a scene you should definitely check out LOL Iron Man is still my favorite though :-)
