Pleasantly Suprised

I survived. Much better than I thought. I was dreading presents. I was pleasantly suprised. Both the in-laws and my side followed through with our request-gift cards to Menards for basement completion.

Last year we kinda got the shaft. We got bikes from my parents, which is cool and what-not, but pretty sure they've been ridden like 2 times. I suppose it'll be nice when we have kiddos in like 25 years and they wanna ride on the back. From his mom and her husband we got....A pig. Really, a pig. They butchered a pig for us. We got 200+ lbs of pork. I'm not a big pork fan. I like sausage links/patties for breakfast and pork loin. That's it. I detest pork chops. A year later I still have TONS of pork. Plus we had to pay for the processing. That was more expensive than the pig. So not what I wanted or expected.

So when I get what I asked for, you get a happy gal!

I'm "late" and have no idea when I will be un-late. I won't take a test. It's a waste of time, money and always a huge let-down, no matter how much I tell myself to not get my hopes up. At least another week, before test-taking is even a remote idea.

Off to be domestic, I'm going to try and make cake balls. Ever done it? Me either. Wish me luck.
