Year 2, Week 17: Work, Doctors and Organizing

Here we are, actually posting at a reasonable time! I am thinking Wednesdays might be our goal days from here on out. Sundays get a little crazy whether or not I am working, so Wednesdays are the new goal...we will see how that goes!

Sloppy Joe

Monday and Tuesday were long days for both of us. Jonathan went out to Celina to work and I worked two 13 hours days. Last week was insane at work for me. Monday was especially difficult. After I voted on Tuesday, I got to work at 8 and was still behind by the time we opened at 9. I was super exhausted by the time Tuesday came around. Jonathan missed some excitement here at the house...our landlord got a new goat! Not a baby goat, but a new goat and his name is Sloppy Joe. When she brought him in, he and the other goat (Abraham...who we thought was Rusty for the whole time we lived here) were literally butting heads! It looked painful, but was pretty entertaining.

Wednesday and Thursday were my days off and they were a little busy. Jonathan worked and I had a few appointments. Wednesday I was supposed to see the doctor, but ended up just getting some blood work done. On my way home, I stopped at Verizon to pay off my phone bill, then went to Mom and Dad's for milk. We had a new meal for dinner - southwest crispy wraps - which are Jonathan's new favorite Mexican food. They were fantastically delicious. After that we went to small group for our last one of the semester! It was such a good experience to spend time with all of those people and we are excited about the relationships we have been building. 

Thursday I had another doctor's appointment with a new dentist, so that was good. My teeth are all nice and clean now. After that I ran to Canton for shots, then came home and hung out for a little bit. We had chicken pot pie for dinner, put the clocks together and displayed them and watched some TV.

It was my weekend to work, so Jonathan got a lot done while I was gone! Friday he took recycling out, went to the Haas farm to take some stuff back, visit and get a plan for a few things they needed to do Saturday. After that he came home to work on the clock, vacuum, do dishes and watch some of the Cavs. Saturday he went and did most of his Christmas shopping (showing me up this year), stopped at my parents to help cut some wood and run some errands, then came back to get dinner and some shows ready. I didn't get home until a little later since we had someone bring a prescription in at 5:59 (we close at 6) that needed filled. Since it was a crazy weekend...I enjoyed getting to just sit and relax when I got home.

Sunday is always a little crazy for us. This one was especially crazy though. I was gone, of course, at work and Jonathan went to the Browns game with his dad and their friend, Elijah. It was a good day for both of us, I got a little bit caught up and he got to see the Browns win in person! We met at youth group. So, I got him some dinner at McDonalds so he didn't have to stop and get it for himself - saved him a little bit of time and got us both there by the time the whole night started. Youth group was awesome, we came home, did navigators, then went to bed to get ready for the next week. It was, overall, a great week. Just a lot of stuff to do and a rough time for me at work!

We are hoping for a slower week at home and the chance to relax a little bit at home. Hope you all are having great weeks! Enjoy the weather! Love you all!

Love,

Alli and Jonathan
