NSA-day five

day five.
eek.

ok. so i couldn't resist my friday night wine date with my husband. but i did limit myself. i mean, you don't want me to have a mental break down or anything do you? i did limit myself to two bottles of wine. and he limited himself to two bottles of wine. so together we just might make it through.

it does kinda feel like cheating that he isn't doing a no spend month because i definitely get away wiht a lot more. for instance, last night (completely hung over day due to wedding extravaganza) we had a chicken parm sub thanks to hubs. therefore, i have no actually cooked since... friday? thursday? do nachos count? i keep planning on making this coconut chicken dish that looks amazing on pinterest but i haven't gotten around to it.

the update: so friday afternoon i got out of work early (1ish). i went home, spoke with my neighbor who is going through everything imaginable right now (cancer in her lymphnodes, not sure how bad it is, stage 3?, dumb boy problems, trying to work everything out... it's a mess. i feel so bad for her.), then i walked to the post office, bank, back to the office to drop off mail, and home and there was my sweet husband! yipppeee! so we went to his parents house because the traffic was ridiculous and there's only so many times you can make fun of people trying to park before it realy just isn't funny anymore.

there we got to spend some time with his parents before his sister and her husband showed up. it was really nice to get to spend time with all of them. we laughed and ate dinner (yep, round one emily not cooking). at some point, we had been there for what hubs declared was long enough and we went home. i went to the fair and spent $25 of my $50 limit on frames. so many frames. i bought big frames and little frames and one frame that was so huge that i decided i was going to fill it with corks and make it into a cork-board. i bought one frame just because it was pink. i bought another frame because it had a picture of a gigantic spider in it and hubs does not like spiders so i thought it was rather funny. that was my most expensive frame. $9. least expensive was 25 cents.

oh and i spoke with the most delightful old couple who own most of the frames. they own a barn. now i can frequent it whilest not on spending limits. won't hubster be proud. i wish i could have taken a picture of him as i'm walking across the street with my two bags and hands full of gigantic frames. i have far too much fun with this.

saturday, being the loving wife that i am, i brought my dear hubs a bowl of cereal. around noon i met up with friends and little ones and erik's other sister came over to go back to the fair. i spent $5. so grand total of hospital fair spending left me with many many frames. two mugs. and $30 of my $50 total spent.

lunch i ate a hot dog and some nachos (with salsa, chicken and cheese). which is good because at the wedding we didn't eat until after 8. getting ready for the wedding i was really proud of myself. after only watching about six hair and make up tutorials i actually used three different eyeshadow palettes and three to four different make up brushes. this is huge for me. i'm usually more of a sweep, eyeline, macara go girl. erik told me at the end of the night that i looked great so i'd say overall success.

the wedding should probably be a different post but it was beautiful and wonderful and made me cry. but i drank one too many captain kirks and therefore i spent all day sunday hungover. sleepy. went for a run (4 treadmill miles split by 1.58 at 1% incline/2.86 miles at 0% incline at a 9:05 pace). hung out at erik's parents until i decided that i needed to be fed since i'd only had an english muffin, a granola bar and some chips so erik bought us a sub and we spent the early evening hanging out with my parents looking at an astro van as ol'blue dissolved into a cloud of steam.

overall, great weekend.
amount spent: $16.78
