~A Great Start to the Weekend~

Well, things have been so good lately that I'm afraid that something bad is about to happen. I can't help it, I've just always been kind of reserved about getting excited about things. I'm a positive person in general, but I still have my doubts. Not about my relationship or anything like that, but just other things that aren't the best for me. My life right now is amazing though. I had an incredible weekend. Others might not find it worthy of being deemed incredible, but I find happiness in the smaller things. To start the weekend off, We went to Walmart on Friday morning to get me an outfit to wear to my appointment. Since I can't wear jeans at the moment, I have to wear something that's easier to get off and on, because I can only use my left hand. I ended up getting a cute pair of black yoga pants with pink leopard print at the top, a pink tank top, an orange shirt, and an Ahh bra. The Ahh bra is ok, but it's definitely not as good as they say in the infomercials (but what ever is?) I think it might be better on smaller chested women. What they do have going for them is that they are more comfortable than sports bras, they help cover up any bulging, and unlike sports bras, they don't give you the dreaded 'uniboob'. They have both the Ahh Bra and the Genie Bra at Walmart for twenty dollars. I recommend purchasing the Genie Bra instead because the reviews say the Genie Bra is slightly better, and for the same price, you get two instead of one. I wish I had read the reviews first, but regardless, I am happy I bought one. Anyway, I will stop talking about boobs now! Kind of off topic, but I am the type of person who always wants to look my best. I don't like to go outside of the house without being dressed nicely, with my hair looking nice, and makeup. That's just how I am, I wish I wasn't like that sometimes, but it just makes me feel more comfortable. With my arm the way it is, I have to dress kind of down, so I was feeling a little gross, even though I had on new clothes and everything. I kept looking in the mirror dreading going out in public like that (ridiculous, I know!). But, when I opened the car mirror to check out my makeup, before I could get it open, Dustin said 'Baby you look beautiful". I'm not writing this to brag or anything like that, I just wanted to acknowledge how much effect it had on me and the way I felt, he calmed my nerves with just that little sentence. It just makes me happy to know how much he helps me with my anxiety and confidence problems.  After Walmart, we had to go to my doctor's appointment. I was sitting there waiting to get a cast put on my arm for 4-6 weeks and my best hope was that I would only have to have it on for 4 weeks. Anyone who knows me knows how annoying that would be for me because I need both hands to do the things I love, wish is fishing and generally being outside. Luckily, my doctor came in after looking at my rays, felt around my arm, and then told me that he doesn't think it is actually broken! :) He said I damaged it and it needs to heel, and that I need to move it around and utilize it, which is very happy news for me. My arm still hurts to move in certain ways but I definitely notice improvement. After the Doctor, we visited Dustin's Mom for awhile and played with the puppy, then we decided to go to Academy to look around. At Academy, I got two pairs of Soffee shorts. One pair is black and the other hot pink, both with zebra stripes on the side. I really like them, they fit great. Dustin got a great deal on a new Pfleuger bait-caster reel. It was 130 and still is at other places, and he got it for 70. He also got a new rod, it's Max 4 camo. He really likes the combination. We also got some more fishing stuff (Dustin never thinks he has enough!) at least they're not expensive! After Academy, we went home and fished at the pond. We didn't catch anything, but Dustin was happy to try out his new rod and reel. It looks great and casts really well. The dogs also enjoyed playing outside.  Gunner swam as usual. You know, maybe that's why we haven't been catching any fish. If a 130 pound dog jumped near me and I was a tiny fish, I think I would hide out for awhile too! Haha. After fishing, we went to Tavin's Grill in Owasso. We love that place, their Shrimp fried rice is so good and Dustin loves their ribs. We went to bed early that night, it was a good day. :) Oh, just have to say, I know a lot of the pictures I put up are of my dogs, but I just love them and they are a great part of my life :) Also, I feel like a tool when I take pictures of myself so that's why I don't have many up of me. 
This picture shows my dimples, which I hate. But this is the only picture I have of us on this day. He looks enthused because the sun was in his eyes. ;)

Harley got the stick!
Harley was too afraid to swim with Gunner at the moment.
We love our pups.
Dustin's new reel. 
He's perfect for me. 

The roads I've taken have lead me here.

Remember, a smile goes on and on.
