(70) Spring Break, You are great.

It was earlyish morning(8:30) when me, krissi, and emily hit the road headed for hesperia for sarah's baby shower. 
It was so good to see sarah and her bump. She got tons of adorable baby stuff. The blanket I made was a hit- im glad i decided to make it (gotta love last minute details).

I got home around 3 and was wiped. I ended up sleeping/zoning out for hours.
At some point i realized i'm going on a minivacation tomorrow and haven't packed. I also realized that laundry has not been done in quite some time. Lucky for me, Palm Springs weather will be in the low 80s. That means all of the clothes i've been wearing lately wont even be needed.
I have clean spring/summer clothes!
I packed shorts, dresses, tank tops, a couple of lightweight sweaters, and a swimsuit. Aside from a pair of pants, i think i'm set. Yah yah, i have a few other things to pack too, but at least i don't have to do laundry.
Here is where i will be for the next few days.
Ummm yah, I am so looking forward to a few relaxing days with friends.
If i don't get any posts up over the next few days, well can you blame me....I will be back on Tuesday.

(65) I'm a Winner

I had so many wins today,(FYI,5 is so many) and only one minor fail.

I will start with a fail. 
I woke up with a sore throat today. WHY oh Why does this have to happen. For those of you who don't know, I've been fighting sickness since november. I am not thrilled for it to be back.

Now for some wins.
1. I was skeptical about wearing rain boots this morning, but it definitely paid off. It started pouring and i was armed with my boots and umbrella. I love it when i am prepared.
2. My group presented our video today. My group was happy with how it came together and our teacher thought we did well too.
3. I ate some pudding this evening and was so surprised by what was inside.
The lid had a smiley face on the inside. I was so cool. It made me feel special.
4. I finished my collage project. It's only taken over a week. I think it looks good, and i hope the recipient likes it.
Last but most definitely not least........
If i remember correctly, I won a gift card and a signed autograph photo of someone from the glee cast. Pretty cool!

(60) Satisfaction

You know those days when you get home and your legs ache, your feet are throbbing, and your eyes are struggling to stay open? 
That is me right now and somehow it feels great. To me it means i worked hard and this is my body's way of telling me congratulations. I think it is so satisfying. Maybe i like this feeling cause it means i didn't sit on my butt all day being lazy. Well whatever it means, i like it and it should probably happen more often.

Today included:
-studying for my midterm
-going to class-we had a guest lecturer (always a plus in Mr. Mutton chop's, aka monotone's, class)
-reading for my midterm
-took my midterm. I think it went well. 
-bus ride home
-laundry (i needed clean jeans for work)
-glee
-throw jeans in the dryer and hope they were done in 50 min.
-ate a small "dinner"-it barely counted
-caught up on emails, computer stuff, etc.
-got ready for work
-pulled my jeans out of the dryer- only slightly damp (could have been much worse)
-got dressed
-worked for 4:30-11:30
-Got home at 11:45

So now i am going to wash my face and hit the hay.
I get to sleep in tomorrow morning. Meaning i dont have to wake up until 7am. It's really sad when 7 is sleeping in. Well, i'll take what i can get.

ps i am in a contest on this site
