How was the weekend?
Ours did not turn out as planned, but that's OK. FIL decided to call off the camping trip on Friday because the weather was shit. I was OK with it because I was concerned about FIL trying to set up camp with my kids and his dog in the rain (and then the rain turned into sleet). I was actually up worrying about it around 4am Friday morning.
So DH came home Friday night, but not before going to look at a truck. DH has been lamenting buying a sporty car (WRX) vs. a truck last year. He's been asking me on and off about trading in his car and I was very anti about the whole thing and all, "We need to be adults and live with our decisions." So I was highly annoyed that he was at the dealership and I refused to have anything to do with the process, until they paid off the car we were trading in and came at me with the right payment. I was such a hard-ass about it that the salesman was basically afraid of me.
DH went to FIL's after we got the truck. I went shopping and watched movies Saturday night. Yesterday, I puttered around the kitchen for a few hours and then got ALL the laundry done and put away. I also purged DefConn's drawers and room. DH took DefConn to a Pacers game with his dad and dad's best friend yesterday afternoon (his dad's friend had free club level tix).
I didn't get as much done as I planned since the camping trip was canceled, but the bonus alone time with DH was really nice.
And I'm glad the truck thing worked out even though I was initially against it (I was mostly against the car-buying process and didn't want to get screwed). DefConn's a full on country boy and I don't think I've ever seen a kid so happy that his dad got a truck. I'll post a pic of the cuteness.
