Next big event was my birthday - I turned the big 3-0. Not really expecting much because were watching every penny since Jeff was out of work. We were receiving our usual paycheck, but we weren't sure how long that was going to last and my birthday was on a Monday - hard to plan anything for Monday. I went to play volleyball as usual and Jeff told me to be home by 11:00, okay fine. I was home by then only to find out I wasn't supposed to leave. Friends were coming to take me to an early lunch. So I missed that, Jeff felt bad, but still there was something up. Usually my friends would give Jeff so much grief for messing that up, but nobody said anything....interesting.
Then I was informed to be ready to go to an early dinner and Angie was going to watch our kids. Okay, pick up Lea, get everyone ready to go and early....(I figured this once I could be early since Jeff complains I'm not ready on time.) He took Lea and Lucas over to the Sorensens, then came back and I had Abbey ready. Asked if he wanted me to come with him and we would just go from there, no he'd do it....really???
Okay, waiting....waiting....waiting....finally we leave. We make it about 2 miles from our house, driving through the river bed (AZ doesn't actually have water in the "river", it's dry with roads) and he was driving 10 under the speed limit, he normally drives 10 over....."Why are you driving so slow?" Said he was thinking about an interview he'd had that day. Fine, but at least drive the speed limit.
He and friends had planned a surprise birthday party for me and he was stalling. We made it back to Sorensens for the kid-free party. They had taken the kids to Haynies for a couple hours so we could eat and play games. So fun! I have really great friends. :)
