Mitch was off Friday so we stayed in and relaxed all day! It was nice since I wasn't feeling my best. We didn't get around until noon or so and Mitch made me my favorite breakfast, sour cream pancakes, since I was feeling bad. We stayed in and watched movies and caught up on all our tv shows. That night we were both ready to get out of the house, so we decided to go watch a movie!
I am usually not a huge movie fan, and I like to wait until we can rent it. But lately I have enjoyed going to the movies. And I know Mitch is glad, because he LOVES going to the movies. We went and saw The Dilemma and it was hilarious! We both really enjoyed it and recommend it if you are looking for a funny movie!
When we got home from the movies, I was feelin better so I thought maybe it was a 24 hour bug or something... but I woke up Saturday morning and felt worse! My throat was swollen and my whole body ached! I had to teach tennis that morning... it was the longest 3 hours and I think I went through a whole bag of cough drops. So when I was finished, I went home and went back to bed. I usually am not a big nap person.. I have to be very tired to take a nap, and I slept all day.. So I knew I was sick.
When Mitch got home, we went over to his parents and had dinner since his grandparents were in town. I still felt bad, but I thought getting out might help a little. I was wrong, but I did get some homemade chicken noodle soup, which felt amazing on my throat! I came home and went right to bed.
Sunday, I actually started to feel better. We went to church and then went over to his grandparents house for lunch. They made ribs and I was so glad I was feeling better! They were delicious!
That afternoon, Mitch had church league basketball practice and I stayed home and slept. I can always tell if I am sick because literally all I do it sleep. When I woke up, I felt 10 times better! So Mitch and I watched the Green Bay game and can't believe they won!!!
Every Green Bay game.. he has his "good luck charms". He has had his hat for a long time and I made him the blanket when we first met. Mitch tells me every year the Packers are going to make it to the Super Bowl and this year he was right!! He was so excited!!!
For dinner, we went to Fayetteville and ate at Catfish Hole. We absolutely love that place and since it is in Fayetteville we don't think to go there much.
They have good catfish, but their hushpuppies and slaw are outstanding. I usually just eat a piece or two of Mitch's catfish and mostly eat the hushpuppies and slaw!
Monday we had a very productive day. We made our weekly grocery trip, and went and got library cards. I have been reading a lot and I have just been buying books and I thought there is no need to buy them. So we went and checked out the library and I think I am really going to enjoy it.
When we got home, I started to feel bad again. Whatever I have I can't seem to get rid of it and I can't seem to figure it out. I feel fine, then all of the sudden I feel bad again. So I went to take a nap before my tennis class and when I woke up, Mitch washed, vacuumed and cleaned out my car! I was so surprised!
It was so nasty from all of the snow, and I love the feeling of a clean car!
We ended up having to teach tennis longer than expected, so we ran home and made a snack since we didn't have time to cook dinner and we left for Mitch's basketball game. He is playing on our church leagues team and I really enjoyed going to watch. It was definitely entertaining!
They played against FBC Rogers and they had Matt Jones on their team!! He was the former Arkansas quarterback! It was crazy! This was both good and bad for Mitch. He enjoyed getting to play with him, but he was a ridiculous basketball player. He was actually taller than Mitch... I have watched a lot of Mitch's basketball games and I have never seen him play against anyone taller. Ha!
When we got home, we grilled out burgers and made brownies! Burgers are so easy, and since we didn't have time to eat before Mitch's game, that was an easy solution for a late dinner. After dinner, we made brownies.
Even though these are only box brownies, they are my favorite!! I love them and got Mitch hooked on them!
You can obviously tell what his favorite part of making brownies is? Ha!
We enjoyed are brownies while we watched the bachelor. I am always amazed by that show and somehow always get addicted to it.
Yesterday, Mitch was off, but he had to go into the hospital to get is tb test. Every year since he works in the medical field he has to get one. So I went with him and we went to Jason's Deli for lunch. We went their a lot on tennis trips in college and both really enjoy it.
We then went and spend the afternoon at Mitch's grandparents house. They live in Memphis, but have a house here in B'ville. We really enjoy visiting with them. Mitch's grandma makes ambrosia. For those of who don't know what this it.... it is a juice made with oranges and coconut. There may be more ingredients, but this is all I know. It is Mitch's all time favorite drink! He loves orange juice and claims this is ten times better! Everytime we go visit them in Memphis, he is always excited to get his ambrosia. Over the years, I have come to love it as well!
We also add a little cherry juice and of course a few cherries. I have never made it, but heard that it is extremely difficult. So maybe one day I will learn for Mitch.. Ha! Anyways, his grandma made us a HUGE container of it. We will be drinking it for a long time!!
We didn't have much going on yesterday, and we have both been wanting to see Black Swan... so instead of going to a night movie, we went that afternoon and saw a matinee. It was a lot cheaper and we didn't get out at 10 at night. The movie was very strange, but good! We both got out of the movie and didn't really know what to think... You should go see it!
We have a pretty relaxing week, and hope y'all do as well!
