Slumber Party!

After a long day of working, homework, cooking, grocery shopping, and visiting my family, my day was finally over. YES! I could not explain how excited I was to finally get home and take a shower and head for the bed. If you know me, you know I LOVE bedtime. The is nothing better than laying my head on my pillow and crashing within seconds. It has been one of those days. Not a bad day, just an exhausting day. I get home to find that my husband forgot to pull chicken out of the freezer to defrost.. ohhhh Brigham! So I hurried and put it in the crockpot and blasted it on high. I continued to even get a few assignments done before I realized that I had a bridal shower to go to! I hurried and got dressed and specifically sent a message saying to turn the crock pot on high and poor GREEN Enchilada Sauce on top when he got home from work. Hours go by and I finally get home. I just kept telling myself in my head, "Remember you love him, Callie." Look in the pot to find that he could not find the sauce so poured some red sauce on top instead. This sauce may or may not have been old. Haha! I just couldn't help but laugh a little at Brigham; sometimes he has a hard time listening. The old me would have made a big deal and gotten mad, but even I was surprised to the way I reacted. I like seeing progress we make in just a few short of months, I love progress! So dinner was a fail, which I was kind of okay with. After that great event we ran to my mom's to hang out with the family, then left for Walmart! We got home, hurried to unload everything, and then off to the shower. I felt a little bad because Brig wanted me to watch The Voice with him. I was just past ready for bed. I hurried to get dress and get my hair dried. Finally! Bed time!! Nothing I love more (besides Brigham of course). I go to lay on the bed next to Brig, and next thing I know there is a spider, a big one, crawling right where my sleepy head should go. I freaked out a bit and kept telling Brigham to hurry and kill it, kill it, kill it! I went to hand him a remote to kill it with, but he decided it would be a good idea to use my phone. Greaaaaat instincts Brigham. HAHA! That sucker was huge. No way I was about to lay my head down on that bed.

Next thing I know Brig is pulling apart our bed and dragging our mattress pad out of the room. I was too tired to even ask what he was doing. I continued to putter around the bed, thinking he was maybe just getting new sheets?? Minutes go by and I finally walked out to our Family Room... to find this bed set up on the ottoman and couch! I love my husband! He knew that if we slept on the bed, I would either wake him up late at night scared that spiders were on me, or he would wake up to me not sleeping in the bed. I have terrible fears of snakes, spiders, worms, snails, frogs, and the list could go on. Once I wake up from a dream about any of these fears, I am too scared to go back to sleep. There has to be a phobia of getting my body covered by snakes, spider, and etc. Whatever it is, that is what I have! I am a baby, I know this. So we loaded the blankets on us and stayed up till midnight watching The Voice, like he wanted, and eating Captain Crunch for dinner at 11:00 P.M.. It was a win win situation. Even if I did not get to sleep more than I wanted. But sometimes I just like to do what Brigham wants to do, regardless of how tired I am. At the end of the day I just love to think about everything good that has happened. I try not to dwell on the things that Brig has messed up on... too much. Because one little ruined dinner is not the end of the world. A waste of money... but not the end of the world! I love writing these moments down! Not even 24 hours later, and I am already looking back and laughing at yesterday!
