I'm all alone this weekend. =( Well not ALL alone, Bella is here with me, of course. Dave went to Washington this weekend to visit his mom for her 70th birthday. I think it's great. The last time he saw his mom was 5 years ago & it was at a funeral so he's due for a visit. His Uncle Joe called him this week & said he wanted to fly him & his brother & sister up to see her. I know what you're thinking, 'Oh that's nice! He payed for all those plane tickets?' Well, no. When I said he wanted to fly them up there I meant just that....he has a jet & his pilot's license so he literally flew them up there. Haha. So yesterday morning Dave drove to Orange County, left his truck there, & he landed in scenic Goldendale, WA yesterday afternoon. He'll be there until Sunday some time, fly back to OC, then drive back here. Quite a commute for two days which is exactly why Bella & I didn't go. I would have love to have gone but being in the car with Bella for 5 hours & then immediately getting on a plane with no bathroom for 3 hours just to turn around & come back less than 48 hours later probably wouldn't have been too fun. If it was a longer trip I would have. Plus I'm a chicken getting on a big plane let alone a little one. Dave confirmed my suspicions last night when we were Face Timing by telling me I would have been freaking out on that plane. But he gets to see his mom & aunt & brother & uncle so I'm happy
So it's just me & Bella for the weekend. With no plans. Well that's not entirely true. We're going to go to Target later today. WOOHOO! Haha. Tonight I think I'll order a pizza for us & tomorrow I'll be watching football all day so it won't be that bad.
I'm surprised by how much I miss Dave. I haven't been away from him in quite a while & being in our home, sleeping in our bed alone, it's not too much fun. I pride myself on being a pretty independent person so it's strange that I turned into one of those disgusting teenagers that can't deal with their boyfriends being gone for an overnight trip or something. I suppose it's a good thing, though.
Bella is doing good at preschool. Although since she's been going for a while now she's used to her teacher so now she doesn't have a problem being a brat & giving her attitude. But at least I get a break from it. Haha. We're making progress on the potty training....at home anyway. When we're out she never tells me when she has to go, she just goes. But some progress is better than none.
I got almost all her birthday presents yesterday when I got home from work & from picking her up at preschool. I order my stuff online because I'm an online shopping ninja. I order stuff from like 5 different places & find all sorts of good deals, sales, promo codes, you name it. Plus online shopping is just fun! So when we got home yesterday there were a bunch of packages on the front door step & I'm sure my face looked like a kid's on Christmas morning. So packages from Toys R Us, Walmart, Kmart, JCPenney, & Amazon were waiting. (No package from Apple though. =( I probably won't get my iPhone 5 until Halloween. Sooo lame.) Of course Bella watches me like a hawk so she was right there as I was bringing them in. "Oooooh looook! Packages! Are those for me? Are those presents?!" Haha. So I went in the garage, opened them up & made sure everything was there, and then left them out there. I'm waiting on one present & then I'll be ready to wrap!
Not much else is going on. I lead a pretty boring life. Bella is eating cheddar fries (her new favorite thing) & watching Mickey Mouse. (Yes, I know it's 10 in the morning & she should probably be eating cereal or eggs or something. Don't judge me.) And I am drinking coffee & about to get up & get dressed. Fun, fun. Anyway that's all for now. I'll update when I have more to say. Probably after Bella's party.
