I don't think I got a single decent hour of sleep this weekend, and I packed a lot of stuff into my waking hours. I did successfully work on my puzzle with my puzzle-loving mama on Friday night for a few hours before heading out to the little watering hole in my town with a good buddy.

It may not look like much, but trust me, y'all--- it's a BIG deal! Mom has done more of it since I took this picture Friday night, but this is all I was able to help with.
Since I dragged myself home about about 2:30 am, and didn't go to bed until almost 4, I slept until 1:30 pm Saturday afternoon. I folded an insane amount of laundry that I had piled up on my little love seat in my bedroom, watched Thursday night's Grey's, and started the season premiere of Parenthood before the Gators kicked off at 3:30. Hate it for J that his team lost, but I didn't mind watching LSU take the victory. It's been awhile since FSU could say they were undefeated while the Gators nurse two losses going into Week 8. ☺ I managed to make a dent in de-cluttering my closet before heading off to watch my cousin's precious baby boy, K, for a few hours. I sure do love that kid. I got home about midnight, and for some reason, was unable to sleep til about 2 or so. Someone did not want me sleeping this weekend!
Sunday morning, I missed my first official Sunday as an Immanuel member in order to celebrate homecoming at my home church. What a wonderful celebration it was! I missed Sunday school because I was so tired, but I thoroughly enjoyed the service and the message that our guest speaker brought, and we had a very special guest leading the music: our old youth pastor! It was really great to see them. As is always the case at a Baptist church function, I overindulged on the food and good company. I rushed home just long enough to change clothes and drive to Tallahassee, so I could spend the evening/night babysitting M and T, two of the sweetest and most handsome boys you'll ever meet in your life. It was a rambunctious night filled with sock baseball, ice cream, and Duck Dynasty. I did manage to get enough peace and quiet before bedtime to watch Once Upon a Time (SPOILER: Does anyone else think that Mulan was trying to tell Aurora that she loves her, and not Phillip, because I totally do) before the kids went to bed, and Grease once they were soundly tucked in. Their parents got home excruciatingly late, though, so it was nearly 3 am when I got home... on a school night. Needless to say, I didn't make it to class today.
Conversation between me and J this evening about this very subject:
J: How was class?
Me: I wouldn't know.
J: You wouldn't... know?
Me: No. I got less than 4 hours of sleep, of course I didn't go.
J: Well, at least this time you had a reason, not like those two days last week you didn't go because you "just didn't feel like it."
Me: ...I feel like that's a perfectly acceptable reason to miss class!
J: You would.
I would have loved to have been able to sleep in this morning since the rest of my family didn't have to work or go to class on 4 hours of sleep, but no, the Dish Network guy coming to install our Hopper system got to our house before 8 am. No rest for the weary on the Rockin' K Ranch this morning! However, all in all, the weekend was pretty much worth it. I ordered my Falcons shirt for my impending trip to Tampa with J, William, and Tori, along with a new pair of jeans and some Falcons jewelry. Today I ordered an Apple case for the iPhone 5c, which I hope to be getting tomorrow. I am pretty excited! Tomorrow, I am looking forward to being well-rested, and a late dinner at BJ's Brewhouse, one of my favorite restaurant's that just opened in Tallahassee, with Jordan, William, and Tori. I am very much looking forward to it!
I'm also looking forward to the matchup this weekend between FSU and Clemson. I think we have the talent to defeat them, as long as we don't let our ever-present egos get in the way. GO NOLES!
I bought a few printables for organization from Jen Jones' Etsy shop this afternoon, and I cannot wait to get them back personalized with my monogram! I just love her. I wish I could pay her to come move me into my apartment in January and get me organized!
A few people have asked where the name of my blog came from. It comes from a Brad Paisley song of the same title, and it's pretty awesome. I do love me some Brad Paisley!!! Here's a link to the song so you can check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NeawYqxX2c
I think that about ends my rambles for today. Sorry this post was so disjointed; if not for having J on the phone, I seriously think I'd be drooling on my keyboard, fast asleep. Check back with me tomorrow or the next day, and maybe I'll have something legitimate to post about. ☺ Until then, be safe!
xoxo,
Mal
