Happy 4 Year Anniversary

This past week has been a struggle to say the least, luckily it's ending better than it started.

The ending has been so nice I'll start there :) just because I can. Thursday was Shawn's and my 4th anniversary. Never has he been able to keep a secret, so I was pleasently suprised when he told me to go home and change out of my scrubs for dinner that night. We (Shawn, Mikey, and myself---yes we took the little guy... even though my mother in law had agreed to babysit) proceeded to go downtown to a fabulous Italian restaurant in the arena district. Bucca de something... I still can't get it right. Fabulous food, blew Olive Garden outta the water on the Italianess. Then we decided to go see Spiderman 3... good movie, but it druuugggg on way too long.

Friday, I worked a health fair, then came home and ate the goodness of left overs...always a good thing. That afternoon I went w/ hubby and the FIL to church to watch them and 2 other guys lug a baptistry up the stairs and into the sanctuary. Yeah, they're a lot bigger than they seem when they're installed. Later, another couple and myself went to eat Mexican. Ymmm. Entertainment was provided by a woman throwing a fit over not getting her salsa and a side of pico de galo costing .85, and her son banging on the window. Soon the entertainment ended when a cop showed up. (Oh, and Shawn had an interview that day... he has a second interview on Tuesday w/ them coming to him for a lunch meeting, since hubs only has an hour off that day. Good sign? I think so!)

Yesterday and today I haven't done too much... yet. I'm getting ready to clean the dining room really well, then steam clean the carpet. Fun. I know. can'tyoutelltheexcitement?


All this after a hummdinger of a week.

14 $25 non-sufficient funds penalties really hurts the checking account. My hubby authorized a gas payment to be electronically drafted from our account nearly 3 weeks, yeah it just got taken out on Tuesday, causing our bank account to go into a tailspin. Luckily the bank was merciful when we talked to them, and they reversed all of the fees that were incurred on $10 or less transactions. So that took it down about half way. It's no fun stressing about money, and how you're going to get what you need, stuff like food and gas... yeah, luckily that's all straightened out now. God is good though, and we didn't have to do w/o. :)

bucca's is yummy!
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog! Today I am featuring a local group who is going to open for Superchick this summer, and they need some help with rating for Lifest. You can hear them plat on that site or their myspace.

Its amazing how nice your bank was! We've had that kind of stuff happen before, and it hurts a LOT. At least our bank usually pays it and charges us so we only have the fee with them.
