* You would think that last Sunday would have been the happiest day of the year for me, what with the time change and all...but man, was I ever in a weird funk all day. I was not a fan!!! The day started well, though, with a leisurely breakfast together and church. We went to lunch with some people from the church we've been attending {which I think we can safely officially call "our new church} and that was fun! I love making new friends! It was such a pretty day that we took a walk that afternoon and wrapped up the night with podcasting!
* Monday was an equally lovely day. I am still reveling in all the beautiful, natural light we get in our house! :) Ryan had to run some errands after work, so I asked him to stop and get TP for us...and apparently he is expecting a digestive catastrophe to hit our house! :) He had to go back to work late at night to finish his notes, so I went with him and walked on the treadmill and watched Hallmark movies while he worked.
* Tuesday was election day, and since we'd already voted, it was just a Tuesday for us. We chose to spend our evening together with friends, hosting a Tuesdays at the Table taco night, and it was such fun. I'm thankful for chances to welcome people into our home. It is my happy place. After they left, we had to run to the store for butter so I could make a dessert for a carry-in at Ryan's work the next day, and I learned that apples sure look different from what they used to! LOL!
* Wednesday was writing day, and I had no intentions of leaving my jammies OR my laptop all day. And it worked that way until late afternoon when I found out we needed to go to a viewing that night. Whoopsie. I threw on blingy jewelry, tried to rock the pony, and hoped it would pass the test. And I was so emotionally spent from writing that when we got home, Ryan took over assembling our dinner, and I do believe it tasted even better because he did it.
* Thursday I baked pumpkin snickerdoodles for my friend Sheryl's birthday, and then that night, Ryan and I had a midweek date at a fancy dinner. I'll tell you more about it next week, but I borrowed a dress and Ryan pulled the full suit and tie out of the garment bag, and we had a great time at our dinner!
* Friday, Ryan was so busy at work that he didn't have time to come home for lunch, so I took lunch to him! We ordered a pizza that night, waited the appropriate time, went to get it, and found out the place was so behind, the pizza had just gone into the oven. So we came home, waited some more and went back. Ask me how excited I was to (literally) hang out in a dark alley while Ryan went in to wait for the pizza!! EEK!! Must have been a good pizza. He and Braeya both conked right out after dinner!

Well they are pineAPPLES....?
I was in an odd funk last Sunday too - my fav day - with the early sunset and all. Glad the rest of your week was good (:
I know you leave politics out of your blog and I COMPLETELY understand that. I'm just wondering about your discussions at dinner on Tuesday. Did you talk about the fact that it was election night or just kind of pretend it was a normal ol' Tuesday?
Also wanted to add that I'm not judging whichever way your discusssions went on Tuesday night. . I'm just genuinely curious/ nosy :).
Tamar - You do make an excellent point! I like pineapple too, but apples are decidedly easier to break into! HA!
Maria - No judgment felt! :) I think we mentioned it a time or two along the way, but our friends who came over have two little (preschool/baby) kids, so a lot of the talk was about whatever they wanted to tell us. The preschooler has a very active imagination and is not shy, so she had MANY stories, which we thoroughly enjoyed. And then there were balls to play with and puzzles to put together and coloring to do...so we kept busy! After they left, we watched the results, but the night itself was just about hanging out and sharing stories!
