Real Life.

I hope everyone had a freaking fantabulous weekend!

Mine was nothing to brag about, but it was a much needed break from reality.

 

The last few days have been pretty uneventful, but I did manage to snap a few photos over the weekend (most of which were sent via text message to my mother) that I'll share here.

 

I know, you're on the seat of your pants excited, right?

 

 

Friday night I hit Aaron Brothers on my way home for their "buy one get one for a penny" sale, because I've been wanting to get a bunch of eclectic frames for our living room. Now I just need to fill them with photos. Black and white, or color...?

 

 

Then, before settling down in front of the television for the evening (yeah, I'm a party animal), I finished up some projects for my sister's graduation party the next day.

 

 

The next morning consisted of everyone's favorite chore: taking the cat to the vet. Half an hour,

several long scratches up my arm, and one spitting mad kitty later, we finally got her into the box.

Not a happy camper.

 

 

Why did we take Jasmine to the vet? Because once a week she's been taking a crap in the middle of the carpet in our upstairs TV room. Utter mortification.

I've had her for ten years and this has NEVER been a problem before. (No pee, just poo).

So we took her to the vet, thinking she might be sick. She's not.

So we bought a $50 plug in thing that's supposed to calm cats down and make them stop bad behavior. It didn't work.

So we resorted to locking Jasmine in the laundry room, indefinitely. I don't know what else do to... HELP!

 

 

My sister's grad party at my parent's house in Olympia was SO much fun! Unfortunately the only photo I took is of Stew cuddling with Roxy. We're not really cat people at the moment.  

 

 

And then Sunday was filled with chores and other oh-so-exciting activities like a trip to Costco that resulted in this mountain of liquids.

 

 

We are going camping in the middle of the desert Central Oregon later this week, and don't want to die of dehydration. Will 90 Coors Lights be enough??

 

 

Things that didn't make the photo stream:

The sectionals we bought for our media room at Macy's on Saturday morning! Football season prep!

Fun times at my sister's graduation party on Saturday. I sadly neglected to take any photos.

Cleaning our bathroom and vacuuming our blinds. I told you I was a party animal.

A close up photo of cat poop on our carpet (for the vet). You're welcome.

A ridiculous shopping spree at Target. We both made out like bandits.

Barbecue dinner on our patio last night. This was actually such a fun way to end the weekend.

 

 

 So yeah, nothing crazy going on with the Always recently, but hey, that's real life kids.

 

Tell me something about your amazing weekend, so I can live vicariously.
