Happy Valentine's Day! ♥

Hello again! Was not able to post last night, although I was up until past 2am. Boys had baseball practice and then decided to stay for the girls' softball game. So that meant they would be home around 8pm - plenty of time to relax and get dinner done. Of course, I didn't eat until 9pm because I (half-way) waited for B to get home from picking them up. After thirty minutes of waiting, I started to make myself a plate. Called N and he let me know that had to take D home. Needless to say, I started eating, guiltily. He dropped J off and took N to work (it was his day off, but he went in).
Made broiled porkchops for the first time - I despise cooking meat in the oven - but considering we are on this new health kick for B, I tried broil over bake and it was quite good. Also made string sauteed zucchini and squash with onions. Threw some frozen onion rings in the oven as well for a quick side for the boys since I didn't think that was enough for them. I knew they wouldn't eat much of it (I wouldn't either as I didn't buy them), but at least if I made it it was one less bad food item in the house. We have also been on a watching binge of Cheers on Netflix and watched a few episodes (now on Season 2) and of course it wouldn't be normal without some CNN watching by my husband. Later there was a thunderstorm, lasted for a while while we were in what I will call the shuttle, for now. As usual and lately, B was tired and falling asleep, so I had him lay down before we had to go get N and I would stay guard. By 2am, they were both home.

Today is Valentine's day and it started off great! Overslept, but still had a great morning. B even had time to make us bacon and eggs. What's funny is we always questioned how people in sitcoms or commercials have time for a complete breakfast, or at least something cooked on a stove, not oven. I am so proud of him, I know this is very hard on him to change his (our) ways. Back to my day, got to work later than normal, but I only had one appt. Oh, before I forget, after taking the boys to school, B came back home and rang the doorbell. Kind of annoyed he didn't have a key, I went to open the door and there was my love with a Jared bag. Might I point out, these earrings really make me type faster. Hehe. Back to work, made me some coffee with tons of whipped cream and started on my CM's. During that time I had a delivery from I Hate Steven Singer! Beautiful pink rose dipped in platinum - if I have time later I will post a picture. We have plans later to go watch Fifty Shades Darker at 8pm. Not nearly as excited to watch as I was with the first one, but definitely more excited to be with my love who is willing to watch with me. We were in Houston last movie and actually missed the viewing I had made reservations for because we were in Galveston and lost track of time. But because he is spectacular, we found the next nearest movie theater and went. Now off I go to buy balloons, lots of them and decorate at home. ♥
