For two broken hearts to try and mend

Day 1 without our daughter.

So much for date day 😞 my wife ended up inviting my baby sister (55yr old) to tag along on our journey in the woods. Weather was perfect, cool but sun was warm.

After we had a late lunch/dinner at a local restaurant, something we haven't done in years.

Wife is off dropping my sister home, at least we will have the rest of the evening together 🤗

How was your event? Did you have a good day? Hope your head cold has started to subside.

Did your mane survive? 😁

Glad you guys got a chance to go out & grab food.

What'd you order?

Wife and sis ordered what was called "Super Salad" chicken breast, soy beans, chick peas, quinoa,some other greens.

I stuck with traditional fish and chips 😁

Ooooo, Thai food, sounds good 👍

LOL. Can't go wrong with a little volume 😁

Hope she can stay off her phone long enough this evening to pay attention 😕 sometimes I gotta wonder if she really wants these dates days 😔

Tomorrow we are supposed to go to a market mostly run by Menonites and this time she invited both my sisters 🙁

Oh, I'm usually the super calm one 😁

The rest of the evening went well. We cuddled on the couch and watched a few episodes of The Cleaning Lady.

We haven't been to this market in about 6 years. But I'm hoping to get a small bushel of scotch bonnet or habanero peppers. Last time there I picked up a pack of habanero pepperetts. 🔥

Just the two sisters one younger by 5yrs the other older by 6yrs. An older brother that we have all disowned.

Wife's side has a much bigger family. 7 Brothers and 1 sister.

Anyway, time to hit the sack.

Goodnight Avocado 😁🤗

Hey Avocado,

How have you been?

Today we ended up killing two birds with one stone.

We made it to the market. I got a good amount of habanero peppers and also a pack of habanero pepperetts.

Then instead of heading home after, we decided to go to a site seeing spot that has a massive gorge that we we going to go to tomorrow. It just 30 minutes away and we had plenty of time left in the day.

Hoping tomorrow we can just spend the day at home together but I'm already getting the feeling that's not going to happen 😔

Goodnight

Hey there 👋,

Ik I've been MIA, just got back from our event. We were up almost 5 a.m. everyday. 😩

I am sooooooo not a morning person

Totally exhausted now!!!

Glad you guys were able to go to the market ☺️

Hope your weekend was good

😄

Did you guys eventually get to hang out together, the way you intended?

Hey Stranger 😬

Welcome to my world of getting up early 😔

How was your event? Was it everything your were hoping for?

We got to spend the whole day together (just the two of us 😃) yesterday and this morning . She is now getting ready to go get our daughter.

I’m already starting to dread going back to work this week, as my team and I have been mandated to be in each day for the grand opening of the newly renovated area 🙄😔

IDK how you do it. By day 3 I felt my energy going down a bit. But it was sooooo worth it. I have a few days to recoup ☺️

Went out with some friends last night. I actually brought my cozy socks & blankie with the intent to pass out on the couch, that's how tired I was.

Music in the background, games happening & I was just sipping my drink with my girls & hubby was there. It was cute. We were curled up in our own little corner just relaxed. 7 couples in total.

Glad you guys got your alone time in. You deserve it ☺️

Don't think about work. Today's the one day that you literally don't lol

It's Labor Day for crying out loud 😆

@convivialAvocado1138

Sounds like you had a great time as well. 👍

I know today should be another day to relax but my anxiety is getting the best of me.
Time to just go out and get some gardening done, maybe that will help me relax. 🙃 I do have some habaneros ready to be picked, the scotch bonnets are taking forever to ripen this year.

Weather's been kinda back & forth that could be it.

You gotta talk nicely to them

Say come on do your thing. Ripen already doggonit hahaha jk
