Ok today really wasn't supposed to be a Rest Day! However, it turned out to be that. Why? Well because we were super busy all day, and because it snowed like crazy. I'm serious, this morning it wasn't bad. It snowed last night and there was some snow on the ground, but it wasn't snowing. I called my grandpa and asked him if he wanted me to haul off his trees today and he said yes, so I woke Lisa up and we got ready. As my truck was warming up, then it started snowing and I mean Hardcore!! It snowed these big snow flurries and it just started packing up on the ground. My dogs were all anxious to go walking too. Anyway, we finally left about 8:20am and headed down there. Grandpa was just leaving when we got there. He told me what to do, then he headed off. So we hitched up his trailer, then I tried to tie the trees down because they were so big but it was snowing so hard I couldn't get it. The back of my neck was really numb. Lisa was building snow dudes while I was doing this. It was crazy! Finally, my grandma came outside and told us that grandpa called and said to just put it off until some other time. He said the roads were pretty bad and he didn't want us pulling that big trailer. So we unhitched the trailer and I talked to grandma a bit. I told her that we'd do it tomorrow. That sux! I really wish we got it done. Blah.
Anyway, we went to the casino afterwards in one of the Biggest Mistakes of 2015 already! I lost all the money I had :( Only $45 but that was all the money I had for gas. Gone! I lost it all. Oh man, I was so disappointed in myself. That was a stupid stupid stupid mistake! I was angry at myself all morning. I prayed to God and said I was sorry for doing that. It was dumb of me to go to that casino. Afterwards, we had to gather all our change. I had lots of change saved up in my coin box so we gathered all that up and headed up to Lisa's bank. We cashed it all in and got over $25. After that, we headed to Subway and got some sandwiches, then I took Lees to the college for her classes. We ate in the parking lot, then I dropped her off and headed home. I got gas in her car with the remaining money and I left $5 dollars in my wallet. Lisa and I agreed that I'd try and win something with that 5 bucks back at the casino. So I came home and did some stuff here. Got caught up on my blogs, then I organized some things. I got a lot done! Lisa's classes were over at 4:30pm. So, I didn't actually head up to the casino until almost 4. I figured with the luck I had this morning, I wouldn't be there that long. It was only $5 after all. Anyway I get up there, play my favorite game and I doubled my money ;} Yay! I only played for maybe 20 mins then I had to leave but I walked out of there with $11 instead of $5 haha. I consider that a success! Anyway, so I drive over and pick Lisa up, then we go and put in some gas. I had $6 bucks left, so we went BACK up to the casino after going home. I won some lost some. Lisa didn't do good. We just tried to win like $20 so we could go get some food. That was all. We weren't trying to hit it big or anything. We only had $6 so not a whole lot we could get out of that. Anyway, we didn't win anything, but we did have some fun. I told her that it's only fun when we win, but that's not true. Just being there trying and joking with Lisa while having free drinks (meaning diet soda) is pretty fun itself! I had a cappuccino though. It was soooo good. I haven't had one of those in a long time.
After we left, out of the blue, Lisa's mom called us and Lees told her what we were doing. She asked up to come pick her up so we did. She filled up Lisa's car with gas and she bought us a big dinner :) That was very surprising. I made some big mistakes today, but I did pray and asked God to forgive me for my stupidity. Lisa prayed as well. We still ended up getting gas in both our vehicles, we had a fun day, along with a great Subway lunch, and a really big dinner that left us so full that Lisa is already in bed this early and I'm going to head to bed also. God really does watch out for us. I'm so thankful to Him for everything. It was a very wonderful day! It turned out really good. As for me, I will NEVER make the stupid mistake I made today. The only time I'll ever go up there is if I have no money and like $10 or less. If I have more than that, no way! Dangerous place, but I know I can control myself. Actually I've done it all this time. I know when to quit. I don't know what happened today, it just got away from me. So bad!
Anyway we watched 'Wreck-It Ralph' and ate dinner. Lisa then fell asleep on the couch. I cleaned out the pellet stove. I had that thing running all day today because it was cold and snowing all day. It stopped now. The clouds are all gone and the stars are out so I'm guessing it'll be clear tomorrow. I called grandpa and told him that we'd haul off the trees tomorrow afternoon about 2. Lisa will be busy tomorrow morning so I wanted to do it later when she gets home. So that's our plan! Ok right now, I'm totally beat and I'm going to sleep. It's been a long fun day. Oh, I may not have exercised today but I finished my gallon of water Woohoo!! I'm glad I got that done at least! Still keeping that up daily now and I'm going to try and do it from now on. Ok, until tomorrow, Goodnight!
