The Shafferland Shuffle

* Last Sunday was a good and lazy day after a crazy busy weekend. We watched movies most of the afternoon, including Open Water, which was a COMPLETE WASTE of my time; Ryan didn't know the rule about no movies with bad endings. He made it up to me with coffee flavored ice cream. :) It is some of the creamiest ice cream I've ever had! We did make a quick trip to the Goodwill just for funsies, and while we didn't find anything we needed, Ryan did try out some workout equipment. LOL!

* Monday I got a text from Ryan while I was at work...telling me he didn't feel well. My dad AND my brother-in-law were both sick over the weekend, so perhaps we Freelan women are sickening? :) He said he felt better by the time we were driving home, so I took my time and enjoyed the gorgeous - though freezing - day. I made sloppy joes and asparagus for dinner and then we hunkered down in the office and worked together {because I really needed to write a speech} - and the illness returned. He went straight to bed, and I stayed up for my workout. :(

* Tuesday was a first! Ryan stayed home from work - sick. That has not happened in our entire marriage. He woke up feeling terrible and tried to get ready to go, but I sent him back to bed. He was in no shape to work. So I left all the medicine beside him in bed, went to work, drove home in the CRAZIEST mess of sunshine and blue skies in part of the sky and blizzardy snow in the other part of the sky, and made him chicken soup for dinner! We watched a movie and he went back to bed. :(

* Wednesday, Ryan went back to work, even though I really thought he should have stayed home another day. He said he felt much better throughout the day, and we took it really easy that night to make sure he got extra rest. He and Braeya watched the Pacer game and I did my nails in a please-hurry-spring color. Other big news of the day: we shared on the air that WBCL reached its Share goal for 2014! Huge praise!

* Thursday was a rainy day, which made afternoon caffeine an absolute MUST at work. Ryan continued to feel better but his job is so physically active that by the time he came home, he was pretty wiped out again. So he rested, and I made cookies, did laundry, watched TV, did some writing and had one of my favorite snacks of late: cereal in a mug!

* Friday was a long day to end a long week - but we tried to squeeze in some fun! I did a crossword puzzle {I'm never smart enough for those, but this one was in People magazine and mostly about actors, so I stood a chance...with the help of Google.} Ryan and I went shopping at Hobby Lobby for a little bit, and we did our grocery shopping...you can see why I shouldn't leave him in charge of picking the meat to grill. HA!

 * Yesterday we woke up to {brace yourselves...} SNOW!!! Weird to see plants springing up through snow. Ryan and I went out on a breakfast date and then got ready to head to Fort Wayne so we could work at the Kari Jobe concert. I'd been so looking forward to this one...I love her! It was a great night - can't wait to tell you more about it.
