How Do I Sleep Without You?

The song "How do I live without you" is in my head, except for the words, "How do I sleep without you" should be the words for me after last night. Luke left yesterday for a golf weekend with some neighbors. So after I went to the grocery store and chatted w/ a neighbor I was in bed by 9:30PM and just could NOT fall asleep. Then when I did fall asleep I kept waking up every 1-2 hrs. It was horrible.
Then I had this crazy dream that I was at someone's house and there was a tornado. I ran down to the basement under the stairs and curled up in the fetal position while the tornado swept by. As I looked outside the window and saw different things flying by, A horse, a cow.....just weird. Then I went to my house and Sadie and Hogan were running around outside and the roof had blow off my house and everything was everywhere. Whew, what a dream!
Thankfully that was NOT true.

I am heading up to my cabin this evening for the weekend. I can't wait to sleep in and just relax. Have a great weekend!

What I am praying today

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next.
Amen.

Good times to come.....Hooray!

FINGERS CROSSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A post for Bethany

Dear Bethany.
You have been gone for a long time. I miss you! The reason for this message is to inform you that we are exactly 14 days and counting from the Great Minnesota Get Together, i.e. the STATE FAIR!!!!!!!!!!! HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

However, this will be the 2nd year in a row without you and Kurbi, I am not sure how I feel about this. I mean, come on now.......don't you think you should just hop on a plane and come home just for the fair! HELLO!!!!!!!! ;) Ok, of course I am kidding. But I do want you to know that again this year, you will be missed. We will eat deep fried pickles in your honor!

Love and miss you!!!!!!!!

My dogs ate my mascara this morning! SO ANNOYING!!!!!

My Drive

Things I enjoy doing on my 1-1.5 hour car ride to and from work.

1. Listen to music
2. Drink coffee
3. Talk to people on the phone
4. Think about all the things I could be doing at home instead of driving
5. Watch stupid people on the road who don't know how to drive
6. Ponder why people can't just drive fast so there is no traffic
7. Have the car completely quiet so I don't have any noise
8. Think of what to make for dinner
9. Worry about other stupid drivers hitting me
10. Try and get a tan while driving

As you can see my drive is not too exciting. Any suggestions on how I can make it better? It is starting to get to me............

I HATE Mondays!

I am so tired! We had a good weekend, but exhausting! Pretty sure I can't stay up until 2am anymore! I still have not recovered.......let's hope these next 3.5 hours go fast!

Nothing to Say

My sister told me to update this. I told her I have nothing to say. She told me to say, "I have nothing to say!" There ya go folks!

A Weekend in the Silhouette Room

We spent the weekend at the Arbor Inn in Prescott Wisconsin. I was very surprised. We had a wonderful weekend and the owners John and Deb made us feel right at home.

We had our own private entrance w/ a hot tub and a 4 course breakfast each morning.

Friday night we enjoyed a bottle of Champagne and wonderful carrot,cream cheese cake on the porch. We then went for a little stroll around the neighborhood and admired the beautiful homes and then enjoyed the hot tub that night under the stars.

Saturday morning we woke up to freshly baked scones outside our door, coffee for me and tea for Luke. After our 4 course breakfast in bed we hopped in the hot tub before we headed to Troy Burne golf course. Troy Burne is a Tom Lehman course and is gorgeous. We had a fun day of golf and then headed back to the Arbor Inn. I showered and Luke got to know the owners over a couple new kinds of Beer that only Wisconsin has. We then headed to Muddy Waters for dinner and back to the Arbor Inn to enjoy the evening. They had these very cool hammocks there that 2 people fit in, so we took advantage and fell asleep in one for over an hour and a half! The golf that day sure wore us out.

Sunday we woke up to another wonderful 4 course breakfast. I then had an hour massage and we packed up and headed into Prescott. It is a small town right along the river. It is actually right where the St. Croix and Mississippi river meet. We had a great weekend together and it was a great surprise!

PS - there are no pics. of Luke and I because I forgot my camera! Can you believe it!!!!
