(110) A wonderful day

I woke up a little after 8am.

Had a very relaxing morning.

It was so nice to have the morning to myself and not have to be anywhere for some time.

Outfit of the day:

Note: I ended up switching out the brown shorts for dark jeans. 

It was cooler weather than i anticipated.

At 12:40 I left to catch the bus to school

It was my last day of friday class. (A bitter-sweet day)

2 groups presented their parent programs.

I gave a summary of how my parent program went. I made a powerpoint with photos but we couldn't get the projector to work. So i made due without it.

Around 4:30 mom picked me up and we spent the evening having girl time.

manicure (mom) and Pedicures (both of us)

Target to look for white dresses for our family photo shoot tomorrow.

dinner at wok & sushi roll....formerly chopstick express

Marshall's: found a dress. me and mom have joint custody of it

Kohl's: found a white dress!

got home around 10pm.

Showed dad the purchases.

The whole family went through what they would be wearing tomorrow.

Today was so wonderful. Wow that is two good days in a row. Im on a roll. I hope tomorrow continues the good streak. 

(61) its the little things in life

Just one more day of school and then it's the weekend. 

I wish that the weekend equalled relaxing. Unfortunately this weekend is filled with work. Not much of a break for me.

Tomorrow also marks the beginning of my next group project and this one entails a lot more work and planning. 

So now that i am fully aware of what is ahead, here is what has already happened:

today......

...i woke up at 7am. This would have been even more wonderful if i hadn't of gone to bed at 1am. So it was the same amount of sleep i always get instead of an extra hour.

...sat and enjoyed a cup of coffee and perused the pages of the April issue of InStyle magazine.

...went to school

...did my write up for an observation

...went to class

...worked out. I was still sore and tired from tuesdays workout.

...took a brief nap. It wasn't nearly long enough.

...went to my 2pm class

...rode the bus home

...got home and sat in my chair for a couple of hours.

...watched last nights american idol and americas next top model.

...ate corned beef and cabbage and potatoes.

...went to church

...caught up with friends

...continued catching up and hanging out at In-N-Out

Some little things that made me smile today and made me wish i had my camera with me:

-seeing tons of snails on a brick wall

-watching a squirrel run around

-seeing all of the beautiful pink blooming trees around campus

-running into debbie and us spotting a "legit" older man (he was wearing a trenchcoat, boots, a hat, carrying a breifcase, standing next to his fold up bike, smoking a pipe-it was amazing)

The best way to make it through crazy, busy, exhausting days is to focus on the big picture and to appreciate the little things in life and to remember to smile and laugh and enjoy the world God created.
