The boy is in Den.ver this week for work. I will admit to being somewhat excited to being on my own for the week. Coming and going as I please, going to bed early, working out, working on wedding stuff and whatnot. This morning I even got into work at 7:45am. Pretty good considering when the boy and I come in together it’s usually much later 
But I think it had more to do with the fact that I couldn’t really sleep in my own bed alone. When in the world did THAT happen??
Last night was a little tough. I went to Mich.ael’s in an attempt to get more wedding crap while they had this “4 hour madness” sale. It was madness alright–next time I think I’ll just pay full price. But despite me almost needing to go to my happy place, I survived and got some loot that we required. I spent too much at the grocery store too, which is funny considering I tried buying for one. Who knows. After I got home it was much better though. I prepped for today, cleaned up, and I even organized all the wedding presents and supplies in the back room. I was worried about the girls coming in and staying in there and then getting lost I have to admit, I’m pretty pleased with it.
In the midst of all of this organizing, I also organized my files in the cabinet-one of those tasks I’d just been putting off. While I was going through everything I found my users manual for the vaccum-you know, the one that’s only spitting out dirt?? So I do a little reading on what might be the problem, get out my trusty philips head and have at it. What I discovered does not need to be blogged about-I feel certain the boy would’ve lost his lunch if he saw the gianormous hair clog. Seriously, I might need to consider shaving stinky.
But I fixed it! I was so proud-and it was a good thing too b/c I made a huge mess I cannot believe how much hair there was-good GOD! Anywho, I’m pretty pleased with how productive I was last night. Now, if I can
Today pretty well sucked.
One of my friends is dealing with a “sick” child (”sick” b/c you wouldn’t know it in the normal sense).
One of my friends just found out she may not be able to have biological children.
One of my friends has to get married a month early, b/c her soon to be mother-in-law is dying of a brain tumor.
Someone is preggers! No, not me people!! A coworker just told us-what a great thing to learn on a Monday She’s so happy, and I’m so happy for her. It helps to remind you about what’s really important. Meanwhile, it could mean some interesting things for me on the work front. More on that eventually. Wow, happy day
Other than that I leave tomorrow for an onsite, so there’s only but so much I can get doing today.
There are never enough hours in the day-I doubt I’m decarling anything new here I make no grandious declarations here about “turning a new leaf”–I know what’s in my heart–but I’m still making an effort to get back in touch with some old friends.
It’s interesting to me, as a lover of all things reality TV, to almost be able to look into other people’s world’s in a voyeristic way. I know that it sounds so simplified, but to see my high school friends “all growed up” is almost surreal. I grew up in a fairly close-knit class, and I’m so happy for their success, and my heart breaks for their pains as well.
Work these past few days has been much quieter-all of the managers are out of the office, and most people are on PTO. For the first time since the Spring it’s quiet (despite leaving for an onsite next week) and I’m enjoying it greatly. Especially now that the boy so graciously helped me move desks arounds-I’m all feng shuied out
Plus, tomorrow’s my day in the office this week. Thursday we go tubing and the Fourth of July festivitie’s begin at the Barnharts
