Labor Day Weekend.

I am horrible at taking pictures. For real, please forgive me. I don't like reading picture-less posts either, so I'm adding some pictures that are not mine. Just taken from google. Anyways, I hope everyone's weekend was really good and an enjoyable "last weekend of summer" like they've been saying. The wonderful they who no body knows who they are. Wow, I'm really good at randomness this morning. Sorry about that, I'm kinda tired.

Friday night we picked up our new truck. Yes, we got a new truck. We looked at our finances and Mr. Skinny does need a truck for winter, something with 4-wheel drive. It might take us a little longer to pay off our credit cards then, but we have the money for a truck payment each month and we found a perfect truck for Mr. Skinny. 2009 Toyota Tacoma. Same color as this picture.


The color is pyrite mica, but it's just gray, right?


Saturday morning, Mr. Skinny and my brother helped my dad put the door up on our shed. My dad hurt his back a few weeks ago, and he hasn't be able to finish the shed that is thisclose to being finished, so they helped him out. Then we headed to the farmer's market for some awesome fresh fruits and veggies. After that we went to a wood party. Get your mind out the gutters, we stacked firewood for Mr. Skinny's family. With the hurricane, there's been a ton of trees down, so that means tons of firewood for us folk who have fireplaces. Saturday night we just chilled at hung out with my family.

Sunday morning was church, followed by some hard core movie watching. We watched RED at Mr. Skinny's parent's house, which was pretty good. Then went over to Grandma's house for a cook-out, and visited with the family. Back over to Mr. Skinny's parent's house for another movie - The Other Guys. It was okay, but nothing special I thought. When we came home, I watched Definitely Maybe that I had on the DVR which was another okay movie, a good TV movie, but I'm glad I didn't pay to see it in theaters. 




Yesterday, we slept in, Mr. Skinny and my brother finished the inside of the shed, and got all the boat stuff in there for my dad. Mr. Skinny went to do some stuff for his dad while I cooked dinner for last night and tonight. I made some london broil, and my plan was to grill it, but the grill ran out of gas, so I just had to broil it. I don't think I cooked it long enough, I'd say it was between rare and medium rare, which kind of grossed me out, so I learned my lesson with that. And I caught up on Keeping up with the Kardashians. I know, super lame show, but one day that I didn't have internet last week I started watching it and now I'm hooked. The bad part is, I've never watched or followed along with what was happening in their family, so I have no idea what happened to them ever. I need to catch up on all the episodes, haha! 

Ryan Seacrest looks so out of place here!


This morning I'm back to work. Awesome. Working for a financial advisor who thinks you shouldn't get a truck and telling him you got one isn't my idea of a good time. But looks like I'm gonna do it anyways. 

Tell me:

What was something you did this weekend?
Do you like reality TV?
How do you like your meat cooked?

  2. Ryan Seacrest always looks out of place, LOL.

    I went to my goddaughter's 9th birthday party, and went to the fair with Stacey and his daughter.

    I do like reality TV! I enjoy Top Model, Project Runway, and The Bachelorette most recently. So I guess that for me a contest of some sort needs to be involved, I can't really get into the reality shows that are just about the lives of people. I need the competetition, even if it's silly.

    ...I don't eat meat. ;-)
