Insta Friday: rub it in, why dontcha?

Thursday, January 31, 2013

It has been one heck of a week. After traveling for 99% of January, I am pooped. Absolutely pooped. Colorado, Texas, Colorado, Texas, Boston, Texas. Ahh! 

I arrived back in Texas on Monday, only to send my precious hubby off to South Carolina for a work conference. I felt sorry for him that he had to go "work"....


...until I kept getting pictures like this sent to me!

Text from Chris: "Morning beara" (his nickname for me)

Text from Chris: "It's tough at these conferences :-)"
 I so do not feel bad for him having to go straight from Boston to "work." He was rubbing it in as much as he could.

Conversation Wednesday night:

Chris: "Babe, guess what I had for dinner tonight?"
Me: "What honey?! Seafood?"
Chris: "Nope, duck! What did you have?"
Me: "Grilled turkey and cheese sandwich..."
Chris: "Mine was WAY better!" 

Ugh! 

So, while Chris was off to eat duck and sip wine on the beach all for a "work" conference, I was lugging myself through the Baltimore airport and decided I should treat myself to this little bit of heaven. It was delicious. 


At least I got to come home Monday night to these babies...I apologize for Wrigley's awkward head tilt. Weirdo.


And of course I bribed them with cheese. They will do ANYTHING for cheese. When Daddy is away, Mommy and the puppies will play eat grilled cheese and get on the couch when they aren't supposed to...shhh...don't tell :) 

Seriously though, HOW do you EVER resist these faces?! 


Good 'ol college-style dinner...grilled turkey and cheese.

Okay, I have a confession:
The turkey we had was expired by like a day...it was a brand new package, so I used a couple pieces on my sandwich and gave the rest to the puppies. Yes, I gave my dogs an entire package of turkey meat, and I think I made their day because of it! Plus, they are total stalkers and won't leave me alone when I scarf my food, so I had to distract them. 


Happy Friday, peeps!

What are you plans this weekend?

My Mister is off to play golf on Saturday (does he stay on vacation!?) and I am aiming to unpack all our suitcases before our CLEANING LADY comes! Yes, you read that right. I mentioned a couple months ago that I was dying to get someone to come clean our house and I am super-duper excited for her to come. I cannot keep up with the housework all while being a tax accountant, grad student, and wife. If my IG (@sarahtuckerup) is full of spick-and-span house pictures this weekend, I apologize in advance!

Linking up with From My Grey Desk and Life Rearranged!

  7. I am more than happy to come to TX and eat McFlurries and hot sammies with you next time the hubs is out of town. Those are 2 of my favoritest things. And play with those pups, of course! Floyd will take some turkey too!

  8. Your husband is lucky! SC is the best place {in my humble, totally un-biased Carolina girl's opinion of course!}.

  10. Dang, that is one professional looking grilled cheese (no sarcasm either!). Mine never look even remotely appetizing. Ha. I am also jealous that your hubby is in such pretty weather. I'm stuck in freezing (literally) cold weather in Chicago. I continue to ask myself why I still live in the Midwest...

    Stopping by from the link-up! Loving your blog. Your dogs are precious!!
