I GOT A NEW CAR!!!! FINALLY!!!!! We bought it Friday night. When I woke up on Friday morning, I was definitely NOT expecting all this. I LOVE the new Jetta & I'm very glad to be rid of the problem Passat.

10/9/08
Nothing too much to report today! This week has been fairly slow at the office. Both bosses are out. A quiet week at work is always welcome! I'm so glad the weather has started to cool off. Too bad it's going to warm up some for this weekend's game. We're headed down to CS again, and I believe that the high is supposed to be around 86. Bummer... I'm really ready for a game where I can wear jeans & a hoodie! Guess I have a little while to go for that one...
We're going to buy a pumpkin this year! This will be our first year to do so. We always decorate for Christmas, but now that we're in a house we're going to do it for Halloween. We hope to get lots of kids come to trick or treat! I'll definitely have pics of our pumpkin after we carve it.
Like I said, not much to update about. We'll be seeing our friends this weekend in town from San Antonio, so I'm sure I'll have some fun stories then!

Perfect.
That is what my weekend was. Let's recap.
On Friday, Taylor was sick & home from work. Poor thing still can't breathe out of his nose & it's now draining into his chest! I went in a little early so I could get home to him a little early. We took it easy all evening mostly just laying in bed watching movies. I know he needed that down time, and I sure enjoyed it.
Saturday ended up being quite busy! We slept in and then decided that we really needed to go get the Passat inspected. Long story short, it took about 3 hours to get it all done. We definitely weren't planning on that to take up our whole afternoon, but it all worked out. We needed to go get Kahlua a new light for his tank. However, the Petco that we stopped at was sold out. How on earth do they sell out of aquarium lights? So, poor Kahlula will just have to wait until we get home from Walmart tonight!
Saturday night we went over to Jennifer & Jason's. It was a blast! I was so excited to get to hang out with her FINALLY! This girl is one of my absolute best friends, but we hadn't had the chance to see each other in so long. I met a friend of hers, her sister in law, and a bunch of guys...brothers in law & friends. We girls spent the entire evening out on the back patio talking & drinking. I definitely heard some good stories! I think we spent the entire night laughing. I'm really looking forward to the next time. Taylor had a really good time too! The guys stayed inside mostly watching UFC & playing poker. I'm glad he finally got to meet Jason. He really liked everyone, and is also looking forward to the next get together.
I think part of the reason that we had so much fun is because the people we were hanging out with "get it". True, they have kids & we don't, but we're all in the same part of life in a lot of ways. They get it when it comes to married life and responsibilities. They get it when I talk about money/bills, grocery coupons, or my husband being sick & I need to take care of him. That's not all we talk about of course, but it is really great to have friends who completely understand. I feel very lucky!
So and then there is yesterday... I did not get out of my pj's all day yesterday. It was wonderful! We watched movies all day (thanks to HBO & the other movie channels), watched the Cowboy game, and Taylor made his delish chili.
We'll be down in College Station on Saturday next weekend for a game. We'll see how that goes, but before that we have to get through another work week. It should be a fairly quiet one. I'm looking forward to catching up on a few things!

This week has been CRAAAAAAAAZY. I had 1 and a half days to get payroll done. Yikes. I did it though! I'm so awesome. ;)
I've been on these cleaning & organizing rampages lately.
I love vacuuming.
I love cleaning the glass coffee table top.
I love fluffing the couch pillows.
(see...we have pillows...not cushions)
I finally did something with the random box that is still sitting in our bedroom from when we moved. (I covered it with a navy blue sheet & put pictures on it. It's actually very cute, and makes our room feel more....homey)
I clean the kitchen every morning when I leave & every evening before bed.
Oh! And I FINALLY put up my wall sconces in the hallway & this votive holder as a centerpiece on our table. I've had them since our wedding, and that was almost 11 months ago! Yeah, I'm bad. I know!
We'll see what house projects I find myself getting into this weekend! Speaking of, I'm excited about another weekend! The Aggies are on the road so we get to stay in town. I love going to the games, but I'm looking forward to a weekend around home. Saturday I'm really looking forward to hanging out with my friend Jennifer... my AWESOME friend who I haven't seen in AGES yet talk to everyday thanks to the wonderful invention of e-mail. It should be a fun, relaxing, nice one!
