This is How it Went Down...

So, this is how it all went down:

Seth-"Hey, Erika let's do a deep clean of the house this weekend.  I'll help-we'll get that back bedroom cleaned out too."

Me-"I don't want you to have to do all that.  I'll just set aside some time everyday and focus on one area, so by the end of the week I'll have it all done. You have too much work and school to do-I'd rather you not have to do the 'tidying' around the house."

Are you asking the same question that I am currently asking myself?  WHYYYYYYYY?  WHHHHHHATT WAS SHE THIIINKKKING?  Yea-we're probably thinking the same thing.  I don't have much of an answer for you-I just know Seth works oh so super hard on his thesis-school work-taking care of me and all that goes along with that-and now trying to figure out our next phase of life.  I don't want him to have ALL of that on his plate plus on his down time clean our apt :). 

I couldn't have asked for Seth to have been raised any better.  Thank you Mr. Jimmy and Mrs. Cynthia for raising this oh so attractive man that loves to cook, bake, and will request to help me clean :).  

So, this is how it went down:

I have recently started to realize that I am having to 'suck in' more often.  Now, if you don't understand what I mean-usually I only do the 'sucking in' thing right after a meal.  Because I just ate and it was probably more than my fair share-so you have to suck it in.  

After finding myself sucking in while wearing everyday shirts throughout each day-rather than just after meals-I realized I may have a problem.  I was working out five days a week-but there was this time period that I just couldn't seem to just make the time to work out.  We were just so slammed pack and other things were priority over working out.  Anywho-after realizing this past Sunday the sucking in issue I stated to Seth, "I have to start working back out this week.  I'm making the time for it."  Seth replied with, "That's good.  Thank you for taking care of yourself for me."  I took that to mean "Why yes-I have noticed that you have been sucking in a lot more lately-and I think it is about time that you took control of this situation by working out."  :)-Now I'm sure you all know that that was in my head-not even close to what Seth said. 

-Monday I worked out for about an hour while Seth was at school/work.  

-Tuesday Seth was home and I just got that feeling that he wanted me to stay at home and watch him work.  I just felt that he wanted my presence with him-so I had to decline the workout.  Plus I was able to read-which I haven't been able to do much of lately because we are so booked up.

And this is how it went down:

Is it just me or is there just something about working out that makes you want to 1. bake something yummy and unhealthy and 2. eat some chocolate chip cookie dough ?  Or is it just me?  Anywho-I didn't have the chocolate chip cookie dough so of course I wanted something yummy and unhealthy....

-Wednesday (today) Seth picked me up from work (because my car is in the shop) and I went to work out for about an hour.  I came home and was going to just drink some refreshing h2o and maybe clean a little and get supper going.  Nope-not how it went down.  I came home from working out to find a recipe for Peanut Butter Apple Bars with a Peanut Butter Glaze Drizzled on top.  And that my friends is how it went down.  But I did forget to read the recipe all the way through and cut them right out of the oven (obviously because I wanted a taste) but I wasn't suppose to cut them until after they had cooled.  Now they are a big crumbly mess-but they can be a big crumbly mess in a bowl.

And finally-this is how it went down today at work:

Today at work I was slapped across the face.

Yes, slapped.

Yes, across the face.

Yes-Yes-Yes slapped across the face by a resident.

Yes-I slapped her back and ran.

Kidding-but yes I rared my arm back to retaliate and someone walked in the door-so I stopped and walked out.

Kidding again-but yes I did want to retaliate.  And No I did not retaliate.

I was highly ticked off at the moment but I later cooled down and laughed about my slap across the face.

That's all for my non-productive week and blog.  Thanks for checking out how it all went down :).

Just thought I'd share something you could laugh at-we look pretty ridiculous in this picture.

The Cook's :).
