It’s Sunday. Thank goodness! Such a horribly long, stressful week. I spent most of yesterday napping on the couch and it was lovely. I was worried about a tooth that the Otter Pup broke because our regular vet quoted us this ridiculous amount of money to get it taken care of and with all of the money issues lately, it was just too much to consider. I felt overwhelmed. But, I asked my friends on Facebook for vet recommendations and tried a different vet. They gave us a much better price and we, along with the pup…really like them better. So next week, she is getting it taken care of. Very grateful for the help. I guess I was so relieved I just conked out on the couch.
Today, are watching some football. At home to start, and then we will visit with the in-laws for a bit. I have pulled pork simmering on the stove for tacos later. I saw the recipe on the Food channel and it looked so good. Pulled pork tacos with citrus salsa. Yum. The recipe is here.

Still waiting for word from The Boy. He is on his retreat and communication has not been good. We have no idea when to expect him back so we are all on hold, waiting for info.
The Girl wants to be something bloody for Halloween. We looked at costumes yesterday and I saw some darling costumes which would be so cute for her, but she told me flat out, this year she is going for bloody and gross. Okay then. I don’t mind her wanting to be scary but from a practical standpoint, I will be stuck in rush hour traffic on Halloween night, trying to get home by a decent time. I really don’t want to get home and have to spend an hour putting make-up in her. You know what I mean? Halloween should always be on the last Friday of the month. It would be so much more fun if it was.
Tomorrow, both kids start rehearsal for The Music Man. That means lots of time spent in my car. Auditions will probably be next week. Details to come.
Well, I am off to begin my relaxing day. Hope you are enjoying your Sunday as well.
