Day 965

My little boy friend will be FIVE years old this week!  Upon hearing the news, I promptly scooped him up, gave him 5 kisses, and then watched as he ran away.  Seems like they catch onto that early in life. :-P

Day 964

Happy Birthday to my other mother!  We celebrated at Hollyhock Hill ... too much food.

Day 948

Fun rehearsal dinner tonight in the Carriage House at the Propylaeum!  I had a beer, whoa.

Day 932

I had my hair dyed today and looooooove it!  I'm calling the color brown cherry (because it's not black!).

Remember this song?  I always belt it out if it comes on in the car. :)

(Listen to the song but don't watch the video ... it's from a weird part of the 90s!)

Day 922

Sick all day.  I'm OVER taking medication every day.  It's dumb.  I don't know how the elderly and chronically ill do it.  Hopefully, this round will be over here in a few days and I can return to blissful freedom (of drugs).

Day 909

Well, despite the fact that I was ready for this week, today did not turn out as expected.  It involved a hospital + people having surgery + nursing home visit.  Just a weird day.  I made a run to the ER this morning; I'll live.  (I can tell you're very concerned.)  BK's mom had surgery today, and as far as I know, all went as well as it could have.  Tonight, we went to visit my grandma at the nursing home to chat about independent living options.  See?  Super weird Monday.  Let's hope the week only gets better from here.  I have a good feeling it will ... starting with tomorrow night. :)

Day 881

I love it when guys know how to dress themselves and do it sooooo well.  Mmm hmm.

Day 864

I'm constantly amazed at the generosity of others. :)

TGIF.

Day 852

Well, after a weekend of death and sadness, I'd set out to just kick butt and get so much done today.  My body had other plans, so I spent most of the day in bed doing super exciting things like watching "Private Practice" on hulu.  Thankfully, after a nap, medicine, and a good dinner, I was feeling up for some yard work.  Better late (in the day) than never.

Brie: (3) 5 gallon buckets.  Weeds: 0
A little sunshine, fresh air, and weed-pulling can do wonders for my mood. :)

I'm strangely optimistic about this week, despite everything.  The Lord works in many mysterious ways.

Day 845

I'm ready to get a bunch of stuff done ... mentally ... but physically, it's not happening.  Darn you, allergies and sinuses!!!

Day 825

Legit lunch date?  Yes, please.  Seriously, it was the highlight of my day. :)  I need to remember the IMA's Nourish Cafe for lunch as it's gorgeous and convenient.

Watch "The Visitor" if you're interested in off the beaten path type films.  If you see it, let me know your thoughts.

Day 808

Photographed the IU Radiology Graduation Banquet with my BFF, Bricky-Bricky Whaaaa and hung out with my Momma.  Yep, she scored the job for BK, and I helped.  It was fun and I ate lots of tasty food, including some orange glazed chicken.  I'd like to know how to replicate that!

Day 804

Colts Tailgate Tour: Indy.  Met some Colts players and cheerleaders.  This would have been way cooler if I was more interested in sports.

Day 799

You know that feeling when you step outside and feel the sun warming your back?  I want to bottle a 24 pack of that magic for winter!  It's the BEST!

Day 779

I finally had to give up and turn on my A/C.  It's just too humid to sleep.  :/

Attempting to pump myself up for work tomorrow (and all of this week) with the reminder that next week is a short one.  Yay for Memorial Day!

What's your favorite summer activity?  I'll give a prize to the first three people that respond.  (That'll test out the theory that I even have three readers!)

Day 768

Happy Birthday, Alex!

Day 761

I had a really great afternoon in Bloomington with my co-friend, Deb (co-worker + friend = co-friend).  After the senior expo, we were treated to lunch at Scholars Inn Bakehouse by our boss.  Then, we went shopping (but didn't buy anything :/)!  If that wasn't enough, I arrived home early and then went out to dinner with three lovely ladies for Cierra's birthday dinner.  I'm going to (hopefully) sleep really well tonight.

As if it wasn't already obvious, I'm loving this weather!  I might get my weeds pulled and mail order plants in the ground this week/weekend after all! :)

Day 723

I went on a hike today with Bridget and Kloey the dog.  She was so well behaved, and kept us going at a pretty steady pace.  I like this whole borrowing a dog business. :)

Day 715

Looking forward to tonight's St. Patrick's Day party + the IU game!

Day 714

Ahh, Friday.  Here at last and you brought gorgeous weather with you.  Thanks for that. :)
