It's been one of those weeks

I view Sunday as the beginning of the week, I know some think Monday starts the week.  I am just happy that today is the last day of the week for me.

It all started Sunday.  One Sundays we usually go to Williams Sonoma for their free technique classes.  When we got home I knew it was time to mow.  Our lawn was finally ready after it was brown and we couldn't water it the storms came through and we had days of rain so it was green and GROWING!

I do most of the lawn care.  And I will point out it does not look like a golf course, I still don't know what I am doing.  I took out the riding mower to get the yard done.  Hubby actually got the lawn edger going and was edging the lawn.  When I finished I got out the push mower to try to trim around the edges.  This is were it all went south.

Apparently I ran over a yellow jacket's nest.  As I was pushing the mower I felt something on my leg.  I thought the lawn mower had kicked back a rock.  When it happened again I looked down to see a bunch of the yellow jackets around me.

I personally don't know the difference between those and wasps, hornets and bees but hubby does.  Thankfully he was there to help get them off me.  It turns out I got stung like 5 times.  Good thing is that this is the first time I have been stung by anything and found out I am not allergic.  Even hubby got it once between the eyes, OUCH!

So I took it easy the rest of that day because I couldn't do anything but lay with ice packs on me.

Felt a little better Monday so I ran errands and just did normal old stuff.  Went to go to bed and fell.  Now you have to know we have the tallest bed and I am short!  We have a tall mattress with then a 4 inch gel topper on it and it doesn't help that we put the bed on risers. So shorty here needs a little footstool to get into bed.

I stepped on just the edge of it and it flipped up, I hit my nightstand on the way down.  Great now I am totally sore from this.  I still have a couple bruises from this but all in all it wasn't that bad.

Then Tuesday night I went to make some chicken tacos and when I opened the package of chicken it was bad.  I was more upset since it was one I bought at the store and it was before it's date.  I guess those can't be trusted.  It was a frozen pizza for me and I think a panini for hubby after that.

I figured my bad luck was over and the week was going along until Thursday night.

We bought tickets to watch the Batman trilogy at the local movie theatre.  Starting at 6pm we watched Batman Begins then there was an intermission then the Dark Knight started.  Thankfully we were able to get out dinner done and a drunk jerk behind us threw up on us.

I won't go into all the details but I do have to say the management handled it amazingly.  It's hard to control people when there is liquor involved but they did a great job.

At midnight the Dark Knight rises started.  It was an amazing movie, I want to see it again.  I have to admit I am a big batman fan going back to the TV episodes with Adam West.

As you can see, I'm ready to see what next week holds and I sure hope it is a better week!
