Busy, busy

It's been a crazy week. I've started going back to the gym, and ended up twinging my knee a bit, so I'm keeping an eye on it. I might have overestimated my deadlifting abilities. Otherwise it's back to being sore from working out approximately 75% of the time. The other 25% I'm sleeping. Lol. It is nice to feel all strong and stuff, tho, I will admit. 

Otherwise work continues as usual. I'm attempting to get into the spirit of the holidays, so I decided to get about 24 mini Santa hats. I've started hat-ing stuff at work. Of course I started in my own office. I also put little sayings in them. Stuff like "son of a nutcracker" and "don't get your tinsel in a tangel." Hehe. It helped, for sure.

This weekend my fella and I went down to San an and new Braunfels to see my bestie and her hubby. We went to the first New Braunfels Ren Faire, which was a LOT of fun. Turns out, the bestie is a fan of mead! There were quite a few people there. It was impressive. I also took the dress I'd ordered for my wedding down, and it turned out to not be great. So it's back down the rabbit hole I go. It's nice that we all get along and her parents got to meet him! It was a lovely weekend. We had lunch on Friday at pasha's, a wonderful Mediterranean restaurant that we love. J enjoyed it, too!

Gracie reminding us that SHE is the gift. 

After the faire we relaxed, watched army beat navy, then went to blacks BBQ. I'd never been, but I was told they make the best brisket. I can now say that is correct! So yummy!

Yummy.

Saturday night we had to drive back to DFW, since J works on Sundays. The traffic was HORRIBLE in a couple spots, so we didn't get home until midnight and midnight 30. We did stop in west for kolaches and sausage rolls. When i got home I went to bed and didn't get up until 1030am. It was nice, but frankly I'd happily go back to sleep already. I had to go out to get some things for Christmas presents and stocking stuffers, then stopped for groceries, and picked up a few things at the Amazon locker. Apparently J didn't have a stocking, so I got one for me and one for him. Both are grinched! Hehe. I may have gone slightly overboard with presents this year. It's fun to have someone to spoil. We planned our schedule for Christmas eve and Christmas day, so that will be good, too. We'll go pick up our Christmas tree next Friday before he meets up with his D&D group, so I'll post pix next week. I hope everyone is having a good holiday season, and I'm sending you all my love. I'm gonna have lunch, finish watching Hogfather, have a glass or 2 of wine, and then probably go to bed early tonight. I hope you are all having a lovely, lazy Sunday as well. 😊🥰
