the almost surprise

This past Saturday morning was dreadful for me. I was still at Denise's and I had just woken up from my joyous slumber. My face hurt so bad, it hurt to swallow, and I was so frustrated that I was still spitting up blood and just aching. I tried to call Burns but his phone was dead, so I just laid there crying and feeling sorry for myself. I heard Denise up, so I went out to talk to her and tell her how miserable I was feeling. She then told me I would feel way better later on. *ding*Burns?*

Throughout the day she just kept dropping hints and trying to cover them up so I definitely suspected something was up. I tried calling Burns all day, though, and he was always super busy with work or he was with someone and I just wanted to talk to him alone. I was so confused! He was still in Lloydminster and yet Denise was telling me that I would feel so much better by the end of the day! What was going on?!?

So it was around 3:00pm and I called Burns and he was rushing around and all I wanted to do was tell him how sucky my morning was (ignore run-on sentence). I was so mad that he wasn't finding the time to talk to me so I just hung up. I took a moment, settled down a little, then phoned him back and said, "What the heck is going on?!" He then sighed and explained, "I'm coming home." My reply, "Why did you tell me that???" The reasoning behind my interesting reply is that I don't get surprises very often and that's one surprise I would have very much appreciated. Oh well, after four weeks of being apart, BURNS WAS COMING HOME!!!!

I went home for a much needed shower and I wanted to look as pretty as possible with my puffy cheeks. Sooo I mixed some clear nail polish with some eye shadow to make black (a colour I have always wanted to buy but had never gotten around to it).

I curled my hair, put pretty makeup on, and then I watched "Apollo 13" while I waited for him to get home at 11:00pm. I then went to his house and we went out to Denny's.

 So happy.

We stayed out super late and then the next morning we went to Jordan Comfort's mission homecoming.

We're probably the cutest couple you know.

We spent most of our Sunday next door at the Comfort's house. They invited us over for their family lunch and then we went to the friend get-together. The food was sooo good. It took me a long time to eat it but it was so worth it!

We went back and forth between the Comfort's and Heninger's, and Burns found the time to serenade me with some "Lamb of God".

So exhilarating. 

It was such a beautiful day out so I suggested we take Georgie and Kobe out to Nose Hill Park for a cute lil walk.

Such a great day!!!

We fell asleep in the basement and Denise kicked me out at midnight, so Burns and I went to my car and we just wanted to be together, so we snuggled up with Kobe and fell asleep in the car. Honestly, I know what you're thinking, but we just fell asleep. Then we said our goodbyes at 3:00am :(

Today was a pretty good day. I noticed that my cherry tomatoes are doing very well which makes me very happy. I have eaten two so far.

I also went back to work today which was nice. After work I felt kind of sick and my face was hurting more and more as time passed. The most annoying part about it is that the bottom left half of my lip is still numb to pressure, but it tingles when I touch it. It was tingling uncomfortably. Bryanne, Haillee, and I went grocery shopping and then I came home and had a nice little nap. I felt way better after that and even made some rice pudding - something I have never made before.

It turned out pretty great. I took Kobe one a walk, mowed the lawn, and now I'm thinking about how perhaps nobody really cares about my relaxing day, but it was a good day.

Thanks for trying to surprise me Boonie! :D I had a fantastic weekend with you!
