So they were asleep for about an hour then woke up around 5. About 5:30 Justin got a fire call to do stand-by up at city hall. Turns out there was a can of ether in the basement at the library that was wayyyy old and they were afraid it was going to explode (apparently very possible when it crystalizes) so they had the FD, PD and even Wichita bomb squad down there, because they also found a cannonball that they thought was live (turned out not to be). So he was up there doing that until about 9pm. In the mean time, I went over to my in-laws and G played with them while my SIL & I went on a bike ride. Felt good as usual!! :)
After I got home from that, and Justin got home from doing the fire dept thing, & I got G to bed, I decided to take a bath with some candles to just really relax. It felt good. He came in and I asked him to get in with me (probably too much info for you reading this, but it's my blog!!) and we just sat there and talked. About a LOT of stuff. It felt good to really just sit and talk. We haven't done that in a long time. I told him that I really missed just being able to "hang out" that we don't seem to get to do that much anymore because we're so busy. We don't get a chance to really sit and talk, without distractions, so it was great! I've always felt like these talks are what keep us sooooo incredibly close to each other, and as of late we just haven't had time. And we haven't MADE time either. I told him how proud I am of him and how hard he works to take care of us and just to be an awesome employee too. I told him I'm proud of all that he has accomplished at work and with the marine corps. He told me how proud he is of the weight that I've lost and the kind of mother that I am and the recent opportunities I've had to sing places. We talked about a bunch of stuff, stuff I won't get into on here, (no, not that kind!!! Just more personal things!) and then nothing at all. But, the point was, we spent time together, and we talked, like we hadn't done for awhile and it felt amazing to do so. I think it's just what I needed. It definitely made my day 110% better.
After that, we watched some Anthony Bourdain No Reservations episodes on Netflix. Then, we went to bed and we talked a lot about God & his beliefs and my beliefs. It's always interesting to hear the things he thinks, the questions he has about why things are the way they are, about why I believe/think what I do. Even though we hardly ever agree on it, I'm glad we can talk about it. Doesn't happen often though! Religion, politics & abortion are things that rarely get brought up with us because we have such differing opinions/beliefs. But that's ok. Agree to disagree, right?? :)
Well, I can't remember if I mentioned before, that I'm going to sing sometime in the near future in church? I'm pretty excited about it. Just have to figure out WHAT I'm going to sing. :) We have a live praise band and if I decide to do something they know, then I won't have to use a CD. I think that would be awesome, but we'll see what I come up with. lol I am also going to sing over in Hoisington on Sept 3rd for a pagent type contest (for kids/babies). Nothing too crazy, but it should be a good time, too! :) I'm looking forward to it as well.
I suppose since I'm updating this actually on Friday, about Thursday, I should wrap it up so I can think about what to write for today's (Friday). I'll leave you with my 3 things!!
1. I'm thankful that husband supports me and is proud of me
2. I'm thankful that he is a volunteer firefighter and protects people every day & that he's such an incredibly hard worker!!
3. I'm thankful for a clean house again!!
Love
