Peace!

The weekend was pretty nice!  Except Sam had to go to New Jersey Saturday.  I was going to go but it was a kind of short notice so I couldn't figure out what to do with the dogs.  He left around 5:30am and got back that night at 11:30pm.  It was a long day for him but he seemed determined to be home.  I was happy that he did get back :)  While he was gone I spent time over at my Grandma's with my sister and my mom.  We cleaned up the garage for her and I got a few more things to take over to Sam's as well.  Since part of the ceiling had fallen in and her trash had got torn up by some nocturnal animal(s) it was quite the mess!  We were sweeping and shoveling and breaking up pieces of drywall.  At one point I felt like I was in an episode of hoarders!  Luckily she doesn't keep the house (or garage) like that and it was only because she couldn't clean it up herself that it had got to that point.  It didn't take long for the 3 of us to have that garage in tip top shape.  We also found what looked like the bedding of one of the same animals that tore up her trash.  It had collected a shirt of my Grandmas and dish rags.  As well as some trash and a bra and pair of underwear that had been mine!  My mom was like "Katie why are these out here?"  Lol.  I have no idea how they got there!  My Grandmas washer and dryer are outside in the garage but I didn't think I ever left clothes out there over night!  Guess I was wrong.  I was like what kind of sick perverted animal steals bra's and underwear?!  Haha!  After finishing up at my Grandmas I went back to Sam's to change and then headed over to Kelly's for her 31/Gold Party.  I stayed there for a bit and traded in some gold of mine and my moms.  We both came out with over $100 for it.  I was quite happy with that.  I didn't think I would get that much for what I had so I was definitely surprised.  My wedding band and a cross necklace I had bought specifically for the wedding was included in that and it was nice to be rid of it!  I figure I'll use the money toward a new cross necklace that isn't a constant reminder of the biggest mistake of my life.  Ha!


On Sunday Sam and I went out in search of a new necklace for me.  I found one I liked but it wasn't real gold or anything.  Sam went ahead and bought it for me along with a Peace sign bracelet.  I'm posting pictures of them both so take a look!  He told me he will get me that one so I can still keep looking for a fancier one and use my money towards it :)  He is so sweet!  Other than our little shopping trip we didn't do too much of anything.  Hung around the house and caught up on some TV.  Then later that night we watched the Oscars.  I didn't stay up for all of it though I was too sleepy!


Over all I had a nice weekend :)  


Here are the pictures!  Ignore my huge forehead....lol.

  2. Isn't it?! Lol. Thanks! I like it too....and no worries that is NOT an engagement ring. Lol. Sam got me that back in October on what would have been my 5 year wedding anniversary. Haha! He said he wanted to get me something because 5 years was a long time. Haha! He is silly. However I have ALWAYS wanted an emerald ring so he was determined to get me one. Ick never did and probably never would have! I just wear it on that finger because it feels right...since it had been so use to having one on it. Wow...this was a long explanation!
