So, this summer is just flying by. This past week, I went to Zumba 4 days, and did my walks. I also meticulously counted points since I knew I had a number of weekend outings featuring food. It worked :) And since it will be the same this week, I will have to be just as on top of it. Wish me luck!
Aside from all the Zumba workouts (btw, survived all the instructors this week- and I do mean survived), it's been a busy week. We can start with the worst part of it- ants invaded my car. Ant invaded my car. While I was out of town with Mom, I had parked my car at her place near a tree. During that two plus weeks, ants invaded and began colonizing. Any of you who have teased me for hating bugs in my spaces, if you're amused right now, then I know you've never had to get rid of that amount of bugs at one time. It was annoying, creepy, gross, embarrassing, and horrific to say the least. I have now cleaned out my car- some things had to be thrown away because that's how many ants were deep in them. I have used three different sprays and a ton of cinnamon to kill them and keep them away. It seems like this hell might just be over, but I'm giving it a few more days before I wipe all of the cinnamon off of my car (it is seriously everywhere, my car smells like a giant cinnamon roll).
Aside from that, this week has been fine, good. I went to Humdinger's for trivia on Tuesday. Sunshine and Cat had expressed interest, so we made plans to go. Then, I found out the folks I go there with from time to time would be there too, so we just joined their team. We came in fourth. We tried our best, but oh well- can't always win first or second, right? Wednesday, it was time for the second round of that Catechesis class on Scripture. It was about the same as the first week. Thursday, I went over to Memaw's to lay out by the pool for a bit in the morning. Then, I did some cleaning for her, and we enjoyed some lunch together :) . After running a few errands, I came home to relax before Bible study that evening. Bible study went well- a few new people have started coming which is nice. And it was the first time I'd been able to go in about a month. Friday, we had another CYA dinner at Memphis Pizza Cafe. It was a lot of fun- our new priest was able to join us which was really nice.
Saturday, it was time for Sean's cousin's wedding. It was at Savannah Woods Plantation- a place where one of my cousins got married a few years ago funnily enough. It was a lovely ceremony and reception. And I was glad to meet more of his family. I spent a good while talking with his grandmother. She's really sweet. Overall, we had a really nice time. Since the reception ended in the evening, we went back to hang out at his place afterwards. Then, we had our first real fight. It doesn't matter what it was about, what matters is that we each said what we had to say, and we listened to what the other person had to say. At the end, we were fine again, and we know what we need to work on for the future. After that, we watched a movie :)
Saturday, it was time for another CYA event (this was a big weekend for us). We all went to Mass together. Then, we went to brunch at Bryant's- so filling! I splurged and got bacon pancakes. It was a big meal, and it was my main meal that day, and it was so good. After brunch, we went to Putt-Putt to play mini golf! Playing in the heat and humidity right after a big meal might not have been the best idea all things considered, but we still had a good time. We sweat like crazy, but we had a fun time. After I got home and rested some, I went back to Sean's since I had accidentally left my cell phone at his place. We hung out, watched another movie, and he made dinner- I had to explain how much I had eaten earlier so that he'd understand why I was eating so little then. It was a nice way to end my weekend :)
Now, to get ready to see Dad this week!
