More Football Thoughts and No Ice Cream

This morning, after I woke up I did my usual morning routine, which includes checking the price of the Garmin watch I have decided to get (I am getting the Forerunner 110 in pink/gray).  My birthday is later this month and my family is giving me most of the money to buy it.  I have, therefore, been watching the price to try and get it at the best price I can.  I had seen it down to 170 before but didn't get chance to talk about it with my husband and order it before it went back up to 195.  This morning it was at 169, so I pounced.  It had now been ordered and will be here in about a week!  I am very excited to get to try it out.  I should have over a month to get used to it before my half in October, so that will be nice!

When I was getting ready this morning, I realized I was wearing one of my favorite sleep shirts.  I bought it at a goodwill store back in high school (my friend and I were there looking for some specific colored camp rec clothes) and, as I thought about it, it has become more true as time as gone on.  I really don't like the Dallas Cowboys because of the teams I root for.  When I bought it, I only rooted for the Green Bay Packers but I have since added two more teams who both are not fans of the Cowboys, the Houston Texans and the Redskins (well, really RG3 who happens to be a Redskin).  It was just a random thought train that I thought I would share.

I am not exactly sure why I am sure an Anti-Cowboys fan, but I am.

After that, I got ready, took the puppy for a walk and then headed off to church.  After church we stopped by a store to pick up a container my husband had ordered.  He still hadn't cleaned the grill since our fire a couple of weeks ago because he didn't have a container to use to soak the grill plates in.  So, he went online and ordered a container big enough to hold them so they could soak.

After we got home and had lunch, I went to work on one of my projects for school.  I have been rather behind on this one and really wanted to get all caught up.  I did manage to get completely caught up this afternoon, although it took me several hours.  It was definitely worth it to have all of that crossed off my to do list.

I watched a few minutes of the Packers game and then my husband asked if I could help him out with a project.  He needed to sort through the office and find books that needed to be taken back to the library.  I am always glad to get books out of our house, so I gladly helped him sort and make lists and piles.  After we were done, we had over 90 books that could leave our office, either back to the library or back to the shelves in the basement.

So...many...books

We then headed over to the library to drop the books in the book drop, which took about 5 minutes to accomplish and then we headed home.  I surprised myself by turning down (more like postponing) ice cream when my husband suggested it on the way home.  He told me that for every 1/4 of my big project I finish, he would take me out for ice cream as a reward.  I got well over the 1/4 mark today and so he offered to take me.  However, I wasn't really hungry and hadn't eaten too well today, so I decided it would be best to get the ice cream on a different night.
