Today was a really nice day. When I woke up I remembered that I had forgotten to take the trash out for garbage day last night. It wasn't the worst of mistakes since the garbage container wasn't even half way full but the recycling really needed to go. Luckily, the recycling truck comes a few hours later so I was able to get up and put it on the curb before they came. I got myself together then started making my Father and I a pot of coffee. He woke up right before I started it and it was a good thing because he stopped me from making very strong coffee. It's been a long time since I've made coffee and I guess I was going to use way too many grounds. The coffee was delicious and we drank it while talking the morning away.
Around 2pm I decided it would be nice to take my dog for a walk with my Dad, so we did that. We managed to get home right before it started raining! I didn't do much of anything today because I wanted to keep my Father entertained. I offered to take him to breakfast but he said he didn't need it and he just ate a piece of leftover cake I had frozen him from my Birthday. I had my last NYC bagel that has been in the freezer for a really long time. I usually wouldn't waste calories on a bagel for breakfast, especially since I've been trying to watch my weight, but I decided to splurge. My Father ended up leaving my house around 5pm to go visit my other sisters.
I had plans to go to the mall tonight with my boyfriend, but we hadn't decided on dinner. I knew our anniversary of dating was coming up so I looked in my journal to see what the exact date was and discovered that it was today! When my boyfriend got to my house he brought me flowers:) It was really sweet. We went to the mall to find him some new pants and me "in house use only" sneakers. I got a really great deal on a pair of Nike sneakers so I was able to get them with the gift card my oldest sister got me for my Birthday. My boyfriend also got about six new pairs of pants from Old Navy so he was happy as well!
After we were done with the mall we went to one of our new favorite restaurants for our anniversary dinner. We were going to go to the place where we had our first date, which we went to last year as well, but they weren't serving that late. Honestly, when we went last year it wasn't that great. I'm still thinking we should go at some point this month just for the nostalgia. I wasn't able to workout today and I'm feeling slightly guilty about it. I'm reminding myself that today was a special day which doesn't happen that often. I mean, I can't remember the last time I spent that much quality time with my Father. I'm going to have all of next week alone while I'm on evening shift to exercise whenever I want to. Also, my boyfriend is going away on business next week as well. Alright, that's all for now.
