SICK SIC SIK

Poor Matt was sick all weekend. Guess we got a little gung-ho on Friday and he probably wasn't feeling as good as we thought. Bless his little heart, he just felt so miserable. But he's rested and recovered all weekend and is much better today. Lots of sleep, fluids, and spicy food to open up those sinuses seemed to help. We just kind of bummed around the apt all weekend & didn't get out too much ( I went to the store and pharmacy a couple of times). Last night he finally felt well enough to make it our for dinner so that was good. He even stumbled upon a shoe sale and bought a new brown leather pair. They look really nice. He even broke out those soccer shoes he has never worn, and looks so cute with them on! I think he has more shoes over here than I do! Seriously.

A police officer opened fire this weekend not too far from our apt. That never happens. Apparently they had road blocks set up to test drivers for blood alcohol levels....there are several pubs & clubs down the street. I guess 1 driver started going the wrong way, against traffic, and a police fire off his gun to keep from getting run over. The driver was trying to evade police and the road block.....maybe he should have taken a different route OR not been drinking and driving. According to reports, they arrested 26 people for drinking and driving.

I bought some meat from a gourmet market/butcher this weekend. Matt made us some hamburgers and brauts. Wish we had a grill though. It worked out just fine. I made some Texas-slaw. It was so yummy and made it feel a little like a backyard cookout. It was definitely a special treat!
Cant wait to get back home, get settled, buy some furniture, paint, re-arrange, do yard work, decorate, etc....
Hope everyone has had a great weekend. I am definitely looking forward to hearing how the Towe family reunion went.
More later~
