Cleaning vs. Hunting

So dinner last night turned out AH-MAZING! And the three glasses of wine I had put me in a pretty good mood too. I think that I should have put more cream cheese on the chicken but Nathan said it was perfect just like it was. I don't think I've ever gotten a perfect status before on a new recipe, so I considered that a definite win on my part. I got the recipe from artsyfartsymama.com and she just called it Bacon Wrapped Chicken. Its not healthy by any means, but it was D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!

So as I'm sure most of you are in the same dilemna I am in with decorating for christmas so the house looks like a christmas explosion currently with boxes everywhere. This weekend I was hoping to get everything put up because my hubby finally went by and picked up all his ornaments from his mothers house so we can finally finsih decorating the tree tonight or tomorrow night. And I have a few things I want to do with leftover Christmas balls so I was hoping to get that done plus the house needs a major cleaning since I have been busy the last 2 weekends.

However, Nathan wants me to go hunting with him on Saturday. Now this in itself is not a horrible way to spend a Saturday and I'm very proud of him for the deer he kills because it means less hamburger meat I have to buy, he even got a nice eight pointer last Friday, pictured above. But for me hunting is periods of high activity interspered with periods of napping. Something about being bundled up in 8 layers just sends me into the napping zone.

However, based on the fact that the last few weekends have been busy and I don't feel like doing a single thing during the week, I HAVE to clean this weekend and I have some organizing I want to do too, which is going to be more than just a Sunday job. Nathan hasn't said anything about the house because hey, he was off ALL last week and all he did was hunt when he could have been home cleaning some (this is not usually the case).( Usually I do big cleaning on the weekend and he picks up and does dishes during the week on his days off. It works for us nicely.)

So I'm still trying to decide between spending quality time with the hubby or spending quality time getting our house back to normal. Decisions, decisions....
