Day 25: My Day in Great Detail

Stephan's alarm went off at around 6:15 a.m.; he turned it off, and we snuggled for a little while. Then he got up to take a shower, and I promptly went comatose. Next thing I knew, he was coming out of the shower--I hadn't even heard the water running! I got up, threw on some sweats, then use the bathroom while Stephan toasted up some English muffins for his breakfast. Since it was nearing time for me to take him to work, I decided that I would eat breakfast when I got home. Stephan was a little slow getting ready this morning for some reason. We got out to the car, and there was frost on it, which is a normal occurrence in January, but annoying since we were already running late. So, Stephan scraped it off and announced that our scraper seemed to be wearing out. Great. Then we drove to UVU.

As soon as we got to UVU, Stephan turned off the car for some reason, which was really weird because I would be driving home as soon as he went to work. I (not so kindly) pointed it out to him, and he turned it back on. I felt bad about that :(

I drove home, parked the car, and went back into the apartment. I toasted an English muffin and spread peanut butter and jelly on the slices, and ate it for breakfast. After that, I just lazed around for a while, and even went back to bed because I was tired (had a hard time sleeping last night). I dozed for a while, then got up and did some dishes and other little chores around the house. I also listened to the BYU Devotional on the radio, and took a shower. I thought I heard a knock on the door while I was in the shower, but obviously I couldn't check. 

After the shower, I got dressed, listened to the rest of the Devotional, and then left to go pick Stephan up. As I was leaving, I saw a note on the door: FedEx tried to deliver a package, but since I didn't answer the door, they left it with a neighbor. Luckily it was the neighbor who faces us, but I didn't have time to get it since I needed to go get Stephan. I drove to UVU, picked him up, stopped at the bank to deposit some money, and came home. I picked up my package from Ken (the neighbor) and brought it back to the apartment. It was the sewing machine I got for Christmas! My mom had it shipped because I couldn't bring it on the plane. 

We had our leftover Subway sandwiches for lunch, and just hung out for a while. I was feeling kind of weird (in probably a hormonal way), and Stephan offered to rub my back, which helped. He let me talk things over with him too. Afterwards, Stephan opened the box my sewing machine came in and started tinkering with some of the parts. Silly Stephan ;)

Then I took a picture of the sewing machine so I could post it on facebook. I hadn't been on facebook in 11 days (I know, shocker) and Stephan still has my password. I had him log me in, and then I posted the picture and got some comments on it. I checked some stuff, and remembered why I'm reducing my facebook usage, and logged off. It was nearing dinnertime, so I started cooking. Pioneer Woman's macaroni and cheese was for dinner, with a side of garlic roasted broccoli. I had Stephan grate cheese for me while I did everything else--he's very helpful. The macaroni and cheese tasted milder than we wanted, but I found out it was because I had purchased mild cheddar cheese instead of medium. Whoops. Other than that, it was good. 

Afterwards, Stephan went and played with his DS for a little while, and I lazed around some more (I do that too often) and watched some Divine Comedy on YouTube (hilarious). Then I got a hankering for cookies--homemade cookies. I mentioned this to Stephan, and of course he told me that I must make cookies ;) He helped me wash dishes, and then I started the cookies. Oatmeal chocolate chip, in case you are wondering. Yummy. 

After I got all the cookies in the oven, I washed the dishes used for the cookies, and cleaned the kitchen. It was just in time for the first batch to come out. I took the first batch out, moved the second batch to the lower rack, and reset the timer. A few minutes later, that batch was done, and it was tasty.

Now, I'm finishing this post about my day. I hope you enjoyed it.
