My friend Steph helped us start a monthly Girls Night Out with a few of us that hang out from work and a couple other friends she knows. Last week was our 3rd one and the first one I actually made it out all night for.
Quick recap:
1st Girls Night - I came home from work ready to get myself together and go meet everyone. Robert's car was in the garage, but there was no Robert. I immediately assumed he was hiding somewhere and was waiting for him to jump out of a closet or something (note this is a regular event). But after 15 minutes or so, nothing. I called his name, searched the house and he wasn't anywhere to be found. Bella was home so he hadn't taken her for a walk. So I called his cell - no answer. I called again (and within the next hour probably close to 10 times). My husband was missing. Because I worry (a lot) - I get this from my mom - scenario after scenario went through my head. After missing the first hour of girls night and not knowing where Robert was, I figured it was best to go out and get my mind off this. I knew I was overreacting. I was right - he had gone on a bike ride with some friends. Whoops.
2nd Girls Night - It was going to rain so Robert and I had to move in some donations for the Salvation Army that were sitting out on the driveway. Almost everything was moved in and we started to move the last piece of furniture. As I went to set down the desk, Robert must have still been moving it and the next thing I knew my toe was bleeding all over and my nail was hanging off. Didn't make it to girls night - spent the night at Prompt Care.
3rd Girls Night - I had been out of town for work the last 2 nights. When I got home Robert had bought me flowers and was excited to spend the night with me. I quickly reminded him that it was girls night...and I wasn't letting him get in the way this time. (Ok, I said it a bit nicer than that and I did feel really bad but I wasn't missing another night out).
This night was a success! Jenny set us up to go to Free to Bead in the Heights before hitting the bar. We had to pick out our beads to make a necklace. It took a little while for me to get fash'nspired, but eventually I found my inspiration piece and got to work.
