Always running...

Once this week is over I think me and the hubs will breathe a collective sigh. Last weekend we had Memorial Day, which included going downtown twice for Riverfest and staying out way past our bedtime (yes, we're old!), the hubs playing golf, and then a cookout with the grandparents. We were supposed to go downtown to watch the fireworks but got wrapped up in a Law and Order SVU marathon instead. Our collective thought was there will be more in about a month. Oh well. Then this week starts 4-ball...blah! I'm not a fan, but the hubs lives for this time of year. Thursday is the Seafood buffet, band, and drawing for the shoot out at the club. Last time we went together was our 2nd date. In that time period I got asked by people how long we had been married, why we didn't have children, why I worked, and the list kept getting more and more offensive. See, old rich people just have no sense sometimes. Needless to say after that rough patch, I agreed to go out with him for a third time. We just had to avoid the club at all cost. I personally don't think I fit in very well there. It's just a little stuffy for my liking. Maybe it's because I'm not a socialite or a golfer. So we'll see how round 2 goes tomorrow. Then Friday if he gets selected for the shootout we'll be back. Then I'm a golf widow! All weekend to lounge on the couch. Honestly it'll be nice to do nothing, but I may indulge in some pampering. I am way past due for a mani and a pedi. Even my car might get some, since I'm way past due for an oil change. Blah!!!! I'm too impatient to sit there and wait so I've been putting it off for a few months. I guess I'll have to break down and do it.
Also, last night we were at the club again. Jim Keet is running for govenor of Arkansas and the hubs wants to support him. He's kind of a friend of the family, so I tagged along. Honestly, it wasn't half bad. He has a lot of great ideas and I would love to actually see them implemented. But after we got home last night the hubs tells me he wants to run for office someday. I am not cut out to be a politicans wife at all. So not me. But I guess we'll just have to wait that out for a while. But in the meantime it could be fun to get involved even if sometimes all I'm searching for is a little down time.
