Singing songs to me beneath the marquee, Oversold

Thursday!! And 2 days to get all the month ends tasks done. I think I can do it!!

I'm still deciding about whether or not to keep the bangs and they are so long now that I need to pin them back. I need to figure out my plan soon. And I still haven't died my hair. It looks WONDERFUL with the roots growing growing out, but at least I'll finally know what my real hair color is and if I have any gray. It would not be fair if I had gray hair AND acne. One or the other!!

I'm so excited about being 3-0. This makes me very, very happy!

So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover...

.Tuesday.....I've been working for a couple hours already and am making progress on the big mess in my email inbox. I had 127 emails to deal with, and now I'm down to under 100. I'll get them all done today. Or tomorrow.

I think I want to go back to yoga, I sort of miss it.

Today one of our managers will be wearing the clown costume that she "won" the right to wear for the United Way. We raised about 3 times as much money as I expected from that event. I don't think she's thrilled that she "won", but she's being a good sport about it. And it's for a good cause!

In the club on the late night, feeling right....

Monday! and it's a great day! 3-0!! Skol!!

I had a pretty uneventful weekend, finished The Walking Dead (and hate the cliffhanger) and I finished My Mad Fat Diary. Super good show! I made a spaghetti lasagna, and it turned out fantastic.

We wrapped up our United Way fundraiser last week, but we've still got to do all the counting and paperwork. So many spreadsheets!

Other than that, not much is going on.

Electric eyes that you can't ignore.....

It's Thursday! And the week is nearly over. That's a super good thing because I've been trying to do way too many things at once, and I'm getting rather sloppy. I just almost ended an email to a district manager with "love ya", so I think I may be a bit overworked. I went home and took an hour nap last night and then I went to sleep by 8:15. But I still feel tired. I will be very glad when United Way week is over. Plus, the coworker I'm covering for is planning to be back for half days in mid-October. I'm very happy and she's getting better, and even happier she'll be back.

Ok, back to work. I have 18 billion things to get done!

There's lipstick on her new dress.....

Tuesday! Bake sale day! Not entirely sure how I'm going to get work done and run a bake sale, but I'm going to have to. I may be at work until 7 pm, but there are things I absolutely have to get done today. I am going to need a ton of coffee!

I'm wearing my Vikings-Prince Skol shirt today. Because I think it's my favorite shirt. and it makes me happy.

I started watching season 6 of The Walking Dead, and someone that said it was the dumbest show ever started watching it. And now I think they might be a fan. Although they'll never admit it. So I had to find something else to watch until we can get together and binge through a few more episodes. So the Princess told me to watch My Mad Fat Diary. It's actually really, really good. So much drama!

I'm gonna rock on away from here....

Monday....I was up way too late last night celebrating the Vikings win! Today I'm wearing Bridgewater because AP is covered in beer. And I can't wash it, but I'm okay with that! I need more coffee!!

I just ate a fruity pebbles marshmallow bar for breakfast. I spent all weekend baking for the bake sale tomorrow and I made a lot of yummy things! And I am NEVER making chex mix again. What a pain in the ass! I didn't realize how complicated it is. It should be easy! At least hopefully we will raise a lot of money!

And I can't break away from this parade.....

Thursday!! I can not wait for the weekend. And for this stupid cough to go away. It's getting really, really old. My life right now is the cough and the United Way fundraiser. That's it. Although this afternoon I get to watch Layla for awhile. I miss that adorable baby, who isn't actually a baby since she's almost 14 months old.

But I don't wanna be the puppet....

Wednesday!  It's been a long week so far, I've spent most every night up coughing. I'm sick of being sick.

We kicked off United Way week yesterday with a breakfast and guest speaker. My intro speech was 2 sentences long because every time I talk, I cough. I've been on antibiotics since Sunday, so it should slow down soon. I hope. Especially since I need to spend this weekend baking for the bake sale.

Sunday is a HUGE football game. I'm filled with nervous excitement. I had been hoping we'd have a new kicker-guy before then, but apparently that is not going to happen. We are going to need every point we can get, so he MUST make the point afters. You just can't miss those!

Cause the music fills me good and it gets me every time....

It's Friday!! I was sleeping by 7:00 last night. I was so sick! But I think I'm at least 82% better. Probably all the drugs! Sudafed, Theraflu, cough syrup, cough drops, and a couple Advil. I think I'm good!

It took me an extra half an hour to get to work today because of the traffic. The thought crossed my mind that everyone on the road was stupid. And then I remember I needed to get to work so I could order more of this: http://octaviohair.com/shop/dwnfowpueb21trdtd6mhxjr21oy97b  And then I realized that I'm probably the stupid one for paying $17 for 4 oz of what is basically just salt and water. .So I decided I wouldn't order it.

No matter the distance, I want you to know....

It's the day before Friday! I ended up at work super late last night, but I got a lot done. Still a lot more to do, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. It's dim, but I see it.

Maybe TMI, but I feel weird today because I'm wearing a thong with a dress. I'm not sure I've ever worn a thong with a dress before. And I'm not sure I ever will again. It just feels strange.

That's it. That's my life today. Back to work!

I lost myself in a familiar song.....

Wednesday!! I love that the week is half over already! I am so insanely busy at work. Plus I screwed up a huge spreadsheet and I think I'm going to have to redo the whole thing. But that will only take me 187 hours, so no big deal!

I'm hoping for a nice, relaxing, low key weekend. A parade on Saturday, football on Sunday, hopefully some more reading. I cleaned for about 4 hours last night, so no cleaning this weekend!!



Tuesday, September 06, 2016

I just had a crazy thought.....

It's a Tuesday that feels like a Monday! I really wish I could have slept in a little bit longer. I had a great weekend of doing pretty much nothing - my favorite kind of days!! M was pretty busy building an amazing shelf for the garage, and I spent the time playing MyVegas slots. Like I literally played for hours and hours and hours. I'm still playing. I'm determined to finance this Vegas trip with MyVegas points. I've got enough points for the hotels, now I'm working on the food. I'm excited to go back. I love Vegas!

So we got a new quarterback. I'm sad about Teddy, but we did really need someone. I hope this works out okay. I'm trying to be optimistic, but I was so excited for the season and to see what Bridgewater would do this year. I know we'll be fine, we have a strong defense and we have AP. But I can't help being a little disappointed.

When ya go then everything goes....

The day before Friday! I wish I wasn't so cranky today. This is the 2nd day this week that I've been left with a car with less than a quarter tank of gas in it. Would it be so hard to leave me a note so I can plan for it?? Like for seriously! Ugh! I was already cranky because of my quarterback, and then this.

Dear Vikings Management People: Please bring in a qb that will win some games. Preferably one that is a threat to throw so we can open up the running game and take advantage of AP. We finally have a decent defense, so lets put together a complete offense. Please and thank you!

Ok, off to do more work.
