Welcome home

What a whirlwind weekend! Thursday morning I left bright and early for Dallas and finally returned home yesterday. I was there for my companies biggest convention to date, 20,000+ people were in attendance! While there I got to learn so much- from brain function to business techniques! It was an amazing and life changing weekend.

Of course, when you come home from a trip like that things don’t tend to be very smooth. My arrival was no exception and it was a trying afternoon for Josh and me.

First off, Madison decided to host the Iron Man and close several city streets. One of which is the street I live on. So I pulled up next to a cop, showed him where I live and asked how I am supposed to get there. His exact words were, “Well you are in trouble aren’t you.” He then proceeded to walk away. Frustration is not even close to describing how I felt. Due to his inability to help, I spent 30 minutes driving around trying to figure out how to get home. Finally I got fed up and drove down an alley that was labeled “For Emergency Vehicles Only” in order to get home.

Then I got upstairs to our apartment and while I am trying to calm down from being super upset about my driving ordeal, my husband says he has bad news. I asked him to give me another minute to recover from my drive and then he filled me in. While he was prepping lunch he opened the freezer door and one of our wedding champagne glasses fell and shattered. I could see he felt bad so I just shrugged and said it was fine. He did clean most of the glass but there were still fragments everywhere, so after we ate we tackled the floor together.

In order to do that effectively we moved our bar car off the kitchen floor so we could get any shards that went underneath. Unfortunately when we went to put it back, one of the wheels broke. So we then had to take everything out of it, pop off the other 3 wheels and restock it.

Our afternoon was a mess. I was still so tired from my trip and with every random thing we had to deal with it was pretty amazing we were both in good moods.

Even though my trip was awesome, I wouldn’t trade that for being home taking care of mishaps with Josh.
