The Good and The Not So...
So, our last weekend plans were once again altered... Kevin didn't want to go to Destin or PC, so we spent Saturday morning at the gym, then the rest of the day shopping. I've significantly lost some weight and that just means one thing--wardrobe overhaul! I just had to hit up Ann Taylor--my favorite shop ever, spent a long time there and did some serious damage :-) haha!
Anyways... since Rob and I have been dying to go to the beach, and been trying for weeks now, we're going to our beach house this weekend. I'm going to try my luck at fishing... Since dad (my father-in-law) is such an avid fisherman, I'm hoping he'll teach me the tricks of the trade... LOL Ok, if I ever catch my first fish, I'll be one happy girl!!! Who knows? This might be a start of another interest? We'll see... But then again, I'd rather lay out with mom on the shore and a good book, you know!
Well, before all the fun begins, I have to do a not-so-fun activity first--which I'm totally dreading it! I have an appointment with my OB/Gyn tomorrow afternoon :-( UGH! I hate going in for a pap smear... The breast exam is okay, but PAP SMEAR??? That's one scary thought! I hate how it hurts and how uncomfortable that is, but a woman's gotta do what she oughtta do, know what I mean? Especially now that I'm married.. this is a MUST (at least every few years for women in their 20's or 30's, then it gets more frequent as you get older)! I just hope my OB/Gyn doesn't put me on the pill or something, because I refuse to be on artificial birth controls. We're doing NFP, which I call the "Catholic Way", which is working perfectly well so far... considering we're nearing our first year, don't you think? Dang! Why do we girls have to experience all the pain??? I mean, guys have it SOOOO easy compared to us! They may be macho and all, but can they put up with cramping and periods every month? Can they carry a baby for 9 months, then squeeze it out of a hole the size of a penny (not just once, but in my mom's case--4 TIMES!!!!???) LOL... ok, too much info... But you know the deal, it's just not fair!!! Oh well... It DOES help A LOT to have a sweet and caring husband... so, LUCKY ME!!!
Tonight, Rob's got another Catfish game, but I'm skipping it--for the first time ever since I can recall!!! Well, for one it's at 9 PM, which means, the game ends at 10:30--too late for me! But, really, I just need to relax! I told Rob, I'm going to soak up in the tub with a warm bath and candles (oh and the latest Vogue), then I'm going to meditate! LOL, ok, that's pushing it too far--the meditation, I mean--well, maybe not meditate, but just feel calm, to prepare my body for tomorrow... I heard the calmer you are, the less painful it is, so... I'm going to try this strategy... Hope it works!
This weekend, looking forward to... the romantic sunsets at Alligator Point :-)
