See what I want slip slide to it swiftly.....

Tomorrow is Friday!! But I suppose I need to get through today before I end my week! lol

So I ordered a couple of ipad cases on ebay. And, of course, in typical Jennie fashion, I ordered the wrong size. And since they were shipped from overseas, I can't even return them. So I'm selling them on a Facebook garage sale site. At a loss. But at least I'm not stuck with cases that don't fit. One of them is so cute with jewels and crowns. Oh, well.

And when I go home at night and lay my head down....

Wednesday....That I was able to actually make it to work on time is amazing. I decided to sleep in until 5:30. The bed was comfy and I was so relaxed. But I did get up and make it to work on time. Although I do look like I literally just rolled out of bed.

It's 1700 degrees in here and I can't take off my sweater because my shirt is just a little bit too tight. Poor wardrobe planning. Nobody needs to see the crap that hangs over my pants. Speaking of pants, I just noticed that these have nail polish spilled on them. I am just one big wardrobe malfunction today!!

Wouldn't like to get my love caught in the slammin' door.....

Tuesday.....I'm over both The Walking Dead and the Vikings game and am ready to move on and look forward to the next episode and the next game. I knew we wouldn't go undefeated, I just hate that the loss was so ugly! But we can redeem ourselves next Monday! I've always known that being a Vikings fan is painful, so the loss wasn't entirely a surprise.

So I'm in the middle of a painful gout flare-up. Am I not too young to be dealing with something like this? And for anyone not familiar with it, it is the most painful thing ever. But I am sucking it up and not whining! But it does reinforce the need for me to quit drinking. Alcohol exasperates the condition, and I don't want to deal with this again.

In the stillness of remembering what you had....

It's Monday. And the start of a new week. I could deal with today and be in a pleasantish mood after the Vikings horrible loss, but then The Walking Dead happened. The combination of the two, plus not being able to sleep least night (because of them) is going to make today a very, very long day.

In better news, I made 5 crockpots of chili on Saturday so I don't have to cook ever again. And C-C-W managed to free up her schedule so she can go to Elle King with me on Saturday. And she said she'd drive!

It's in my head, darling I hope.....

FRIDAY!! Yay!! I'm ready for the week to be over. And as much as I want a weekend, I can't wait until Sunday! I want to continue our winning streak!

So I started watching Breakout Kings on Netflix and it was super good. But apparently it was cancelled after 2 seasons and it ends on a cliffhanger. Ugh!! I like resolution! How come everything good gets cancelled?

When they play their music, that hard rock music....

Thursday!!! So I posted a picture of my new handbag on the Minnesota Vikings Family facebook page and I've gotten 437 likes. That's like a lot. But it is a REALLY cute handbag!

On Saturday I'm going to make chili for the game on Sunday. I haven't made it for several months, so I'm excited. It's the little things.

C-C-W is getting lasik, and it's making me really, really consider it. I can't even imagine not having to wear glasses. That would be wonderful!

But at least I'm enjoying the ride, at least I'll enjoy the ride.....

Wednesday!!! The work week is nearly half over! Last night I tried to help the Princess with math, but I realized I am a terrible teacher. I get so excited about percentages and fractions, and I think that makes it harder for her because math is really hard for her. It's definitely one of those things you either love or hate. And I love it. And I wish I could make her love it, but I can't. So I will just have to go slow and hope she catches on.

I can't wait until the concert Saturday night! And then the game on Sunday! I moved into my new Vikings handbag and I'm so excited about it!! It's a bit larger than I'm used to, but it is so cute!

Anything less that the best is a felony......

Tuesday! Last night I had a dream that I was redoing my kitchen floors and I found the coolest thing. It was a scale that replaces one of the tiles. Like a scale for weighing yourself. And it was super thin and it exactly matched the color of the tiles. I think I either need to find one or invent one, because it was just perfect for my kitchen!

and now back to work....

And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.....

Another Monday....I had a pretty good weekend. I didn't do much of anything, watched netflix, hung out with M, I did a taste test on Sunday, then shopping with the Princess. It was great. And the Vikings are still 5-0! I was sort of convinced that they'd find a way to lose on a bye week, but actually they won because the Packers lost. I need to start enjoying the ride instead of waiting for the crash. lol

Next Saturday is the I love the 90's concert. I'm going with D2 and the Princess. That will be a lot of fun!!! I'm super excited!

When all your promises are gone.....

FRIDAY!!! Bye weeks make me kind of sad. Obviously because I can't watch my team win, but also because I don't want them to lose the momentum they have built up over the past few weeks. But I guess everyone needs a few days off.

I have the most horrible dry skin on my face. I bought a spendy-ish lotion, and it smells TERRIBLE! So hopefully it will work!

I drank a 7 point coffee drink this morning, and it was so not worth 7 points. I only get 30 points a day. It was okay, but so not worth spending that many points.

I'm so glad it's the weekend!

Take it easy, take it slow.....

Thursday!! And yes, I'm wearing yoga pants today. But they don't really count because they are from Ann Taylor. And also, I need to wax my eyebrows. I finally shut my AC off last night. But I want to wait until Thanksgiving to put on the heat. And also to wear socks.

I'm seriously contemplating cancelling my Bingo Blitz Elite membership. Some of the seasonal rooms are impossible to complete and it makes me cranky. I hate being cranky about a stupid Facebook game. But I also love playing it. So maybe I will play it for free for awhile and see how that goes.

Right round like a record, baby.....

Tuesday.....It's only 6:30 and I've already had 4 cups of coffee and a diet coke. I even tried to get to work super early, but of course traffic prevented that plan from happening. Not sure why I woke up so early, but I assume it is because I fell asleep early. And woke up when I dropped my ipad on my face.

Today will be a challenging lunch day because we are having a Chipotle taco bar catered in. Pretty much everything yummy is super high points. So I just need to be super careful with portions to make it fit into Weight Watchers. And I already pre-planned my dinner so I can stay within my points. I'm really trying to dedicate myself to the plan so it works. It would be easier if I wasn't so lazy and if junk food didn't taste so good.

You thought I wouldn't sell without you, sold nine million....

Monday and the beginning of a new week. The highlight of my weekend is obviously 5-0!! Had it been suggested 2 months ago that we would be 5-0 without Teddy or AP, I might have cried at the prospect of not having my star QB and running back. But, I think all the pieces are in place for a very big year. But, lets take it one game at a time!

I colored D2's daughters hair purple, and I so want purple hair! If this is the kind of season I think it might be, I may have purple hair in February. I would definitely compromise my professional integrity for the big game!

The rest of my weekend was pretty non-eventful. 30 minute taste test for $30, and a whole lot of Netflix. I thought about going to the Ladies of Champlin (LOC) bonfire Saturday night, but I didn't want to give up a chance to have the living room to myself. I finished the latest season of The Fosters and tried a couple of other shows, but couldn't get into them. So, I'm back to American Crime, I'm almost through season 2. Then I need to find something else.....



Friday, October 07, 2016

as the cash box rang I thought everything away.....

FRIDAY!!! I have a ton of work to get through before I can start my weekend, but I'm determined to get it all done!! I have a whole weekend full of nothing planned, helping D2 with her daughters hair, spending time with the Princess, netflix, getting paid to sample something, and then the Vikings game. And hopefully a couple of naps in there somewhere.

But in order to do all that, I need to start with checking my voice mails and reading some emails.and in just a few short hours, my weekend can begin!

Tuesday, October 04, 2016

And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way.....

Tuesday!! And 4-0!!!! I'm so excited about this! I know the prospect of going undefeated is unrealistic, but I'm hoping that every game is going to be competitive and we don't get blown out at some point. This is going to be a GREAT season! Skol!!

Tomorrow night is Def Leppard!! M won tickets on Saturday, so now me, M, C-C-W and Becky get to go! I'm sad that D2 had to cancel, but it's still going to be a great night!!
