Nashville Get Away
My get away was not a good one. I am to tired to even go into why right now. I found a great new place to shop and got to see a spiritual teacher so it wasn't all bad but if I had to give it a thumbs up or down, it would be 2 thumbs down.

Happy Thursday and Friday to me!
I am leaving work early and I am heading south today. I am going to go see a friend who lives in Nashville. I am pretty excited because she is going to take me to a new scrapbook place, which just opened. No, I am not a scrapbooker, but it does mean one of my lucky friends may get what I will be making. She and I are going to a class this evening. It will be fun seeing a new shop, new ideas and the obvious, getting to spend time with her. The only sad part for me is that I will miss seeing my niece. She spent last night with her nana and papaw so it will be 2 nights and 3 days without her. I love and miss her so much when I am away from her. I guess the only good news is that her parents will have time to deprogram her from staying with the grandparents by the time I get home...(HAHA...just kidding mom!)
I will try to post while I am down in the valley but one can never depend on cell coverage.

Beautiful Day
It is 2 p.m. and beautiful outside. I was tired of sitting here so I got up and took a walk. Across from where I work, there is both a track and also a paved path working its way around part of the state park. I walked the path near the park and when I got tired, I sat down on the grass. I could have stayed there the rest of the day and things would have been good for me but I had to ruin my fun and come back into work. I am finding I like being outside. This is a new concept for me because I don’t know if I enjoyed being outside much my entire life. Well, I do remember liking to be outside and swinging on the bench (I would even do this when snow on the ground) but never have I remembered wanting to go out just to be in nature. I am going to go to Nashville on Thursday night and look forward to walking with my friend Kathleen and her dog at the state park. What is up with me?
Judy, did you find your missing stamp? Get into your van and slam on the brakes and maybe you will find it.
Tuesday Morning
Judy, of course you can borrow my "Be Happy Everyday" stamp. If I had known you wanted to use that one too, I would have added it to your borrow bag. Believe me, anytime you want to have a borrow bag, I would be happy to share. I am a good sharer. Sorry you had to spend the money and then lost your stamp. That really bites. If you lose my "Be Happy" stamp, I would not be happy, I would be sad, but it is just a stamp and I would get over it. You might have to give me one of your children for compensation but otherwise we would be all good. Also, I didn't get to read the post so I didn't get to put the stamp in SIL purse. If you need it before tomorrow, you are welcome to come and get it tonight. Just let me know before you come so I will have plenty of time to find it on my craft table....HA HA! (not kidding)
I do not steal, nor did I steal your gift. Well, sometimes I steal kisses from my niece but she then wipes it off so that makes it even...but your gift, NOPE, it was purchased right under your nose.
Last night I played with niece...we played Toy Story. She has the Buzz, Woody and squeaky toy. Each time I was Buzz and he did something fun, I had to trade and be Woody. Then that darn cowboy would have fun and the next moment I found I was traded yet again to Buzz. It was so confusing being different characters within 5-10 minutes of each other. It is a good thing I am such a good actress and can switch rolls so often and quickly. I think I hear Hollywood calling me now.
I am going to have a good day today even if I don't want to! I have much work to do even though it isn't what I particularly want to do! I stopped and got coffee so things should be good at least until the cup is empty!
Hope everyone has a full cup kind of day!

Busy Weekend Busy Monday
I got up this morning, without my consent, and went straight to my sales training class. After class, I had to head to owners home to fix their home computer. Net nanny expired and for some reason, it couldn’t be updated and downloaded correctly. I also had to do some virus and system changes and updates so I ended up staying there for 3 hours. Now, I am back at work to start my work day and the only thing I want to do is to take a rest. I guess instead of a rest, I am going to take a walk. This should perk me up and it is so beautiful outside. I just can’t resist! Who knows, maybe I will not come back!
Weekend went by WAY to fast! I don't feel like I have had a break AT ALL. It wasn't that I didn't have a nice weekend, I did, but it felt like I never stayed at home at all this weekend. I don't remember Friday night, it is a blur to me. Saturday I went to my friend Laurie's house. I volunteered to bring Penn Station because I had a buy one get one free coupon, which I lost before I got there so I eneded up spending my weekly allowance in one everying!! HAHA! It was a nice night anyway and I got to spend it with my nerd friend Laurie who I don't get to see very often so it was worth it... Yesterday, my friend Judy, Stephenie and I went to a local art festival. I got 2 Christmas gifts and lots of ideas. Who were the gifts for? One was for my friend Kathleen, it was a print and I am going to frame it and the other was for none other than my friend Judy! I am one sneaking gal. In fact, on Sunday, Judy asked me if the old fashion Christmas gifts, which are to be homemade, had to be homemade by the giver. I wanted to laugh because I had already gotten her homemade gift at the festival...So the answer I gave was "No, you don't have to make it yourself...but is has to be homemade." It isn't that I wouldn't want to make the gift myself, and it isn't that I might not make someone elses gift, it is just sometimes the perfect gift shows itself and this was the case....and it was homemade so I followed my own rules. LOL!

An old fashion Christmas
Would anyone want to swap homemade gifts for Christmas? I think it could be fun. I know I have plenty of supplies to use already. I would like to know now so that I can start planning on what I want to give and make for Christmas time. I am a planner, if you don't know that already. Who is game?

2005 Birthday Present
Thanks to my friend Beth who sent me my birthday present! She apologized that it was over a year late but I don't care because I love it!
Stamping Site
Here is the stamping site. It is amazing. Truly amazing.
I had a call on my cell phone this afternoon and after I finished with my call, I threw my cell phone away instead of my gum. This also reminds me of the time family found lettuce in the cabinet instead of the fridge and at one time, I used to always leave the water running in the bathroom after washing my hands. I think I might be a little stressed....you think?

Salad Anyone?
I love to eat salad so this hit my stomach hard. I am just glad I didn't have one for lunch today or I may have lost it. The note attached to the picture stated what probably happened was the water the lettuce was washed in contained polliwogs and these became fresh new frogs, right in the packages. So if you're looking for salad fixings with a little more body, then be sure and try this brand.
My mom said she watched a show on TV about how they "clean" the washed lettuce! I guess the show was correct!
Love this show
This is one of our favorite shows. If you haven't seen it, is is called The Office. These people are all weird and it is like watching a train wreck but at the same time, we can't get enough of it. Kind of reminds me of the Napoleon Dynamite comedy, but for adults.
Let me set the scene up a bit. The boss, who is a total diaster and doesn't do any work, passes on deciding what insurance plan to use to the local geek of the group. Some of the workers decide to make up illnesses. So the geek decides to take matters in his own hands.

Thursday
Thursday is better than Friday this week. Big wig coming in to interview office for potential new product line on Friday. (I went and had my hair cut and my facial hair removed for the interview....HAHA) Name time and place on Thursday and I will be there. I could also meet at I69 and 96th St at Cracker Barrel, also love Roly Poly. It does not matter where....Name the place...and maybe friend of three can also join in the fun. Met a friend at Cracker Barrel last week and it was pretty good timimg wise but we went at 11:00 to beat the crowds.
Bad for Me Taste So Good
I am eating an unhealthy lunch today. I normally don’t eat chips let alone dip because it seems to sour so nicely in my tummy but today, I had a hankering for some. So I went to my local CVS, where everybody know your name, and bought some. What is really gross is as I am typing I looked down and can see my keys are turning a very pretty shinny black from all the grease! GROSS!
The only good for me I am having is my oj with sprite. I just love mixing those 2 together, especially if the oj has lots of pulp. Drinking it this way makes me think I am drinking a mixed drink while on the job and I seem to get through the day a little brighter. Even though, I would normally never drink a mixed drink any other time.

You want to go sometime?
There is also a, geez, what is the name of that place that gives you fresh baked buns with the honey sweet butter?? That place is on Shadeland too. Not Charlestons, not McAlister's Deli but....Memory is failing me!
Also next to my work is Panera Bread....yummy.
And Culvers.

Work and tudes for me to remember
Coughed my head off like a fool last night, however I NEVER choked! I was quite pleased with the amount of sleep I had gotten. If I had to guess I would say it would be about 4-5 hours total. It wasn't uninterrupted sleep because of the coughing but it was SLEEP never less and I was excited about it! So this morning I got up and took my shower planning on working. After my shower I was completely exhausted! So I text messaged the owner of my company and said I needed to take a short rest and then would be in. Just now, at 11:33 a.m. I woke up. It felt SO GOOD to sleep. I haven't sleep for more then 30-45 minutes at a time since last Thursday! I am a renewed person.
Yesterday SIL dad and grandmother came for a visit. I would describe her grandmother extremely wise. I love hearing her speak about the ways of the world. Her grandmother reminded me with what she was saying that I was protected. So last night I prayed asking for protecting. Each time I woke up coughing I gave thanks for not losing my breath. I wish I could remember to use protection all the time. The other thing she discussed was attitude and gratitude. She said those were her tudes she liked. I would have to agree with her. It was so great to see her and I know it was what I needed to hear and remember. Thanks Eleanor!
