You are who you are, no matter where I am.....

Today has been an easy day. Work was not too stressful and now we've got a four day weekend to relax and recoup for next week. I'm so lucky to work with people that I consider not just co-workers, but also friends. It certainly makes being at work much more pleasant! As much as I like to be with my co-workers, I'm so glad to have a little break!

Had dinner with my family...thansk Mom! Flying Burger is my favorite! After eating, I went over to Amigo to pick up something from Matthew's sister, and man, was my timing perfect! Matthew's mom and sisters were all there and had birthday cake for Lisa's birthday! Birthday cake is my other favorite. Laura made it herself. It was delicious, and the picture I saw before it was cut, was pretty too!

After all the favorites, I thought I might need to go to the gym. I made sure that I charged my IPod today so it would be ready. Instead I went to the track and walked 1.5 miles. It was so nice to be outside in the fresh air instead of on the elliptical staring at those 4 TVs. I so enjoyed being outside. The sun was going down so it wasn't terribly hot and the cows weren't as stinky as they sometimes are. I wasn't planning on going more than a mile, but Keri Hilson was playing as I reached the 4th lap and I didn't want to stop without hearing the whole song. Being at the track made me think of when Jill and I used to go walk every night. Actually, she would make me run a lap or two. Then she'd get mad at me cause I would try to talk to her while we were running, and she couldn't breathe.

Now I've had my shower, am in my PJs and watching So You Think You Can Dance. Tonight is auditions. They crack me up. Looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning. Pedicure is on the agenda too. AND Matthew comes home tomorrow!!! Yay!

I can't believe this school year is almost over! At least for those who actually get summer break! My little bitty break still seems like it's too far away to even get excited over. Looking forward to going to Gatlinburg with my family this year. Hopefully, my summer trip this year will turn out better than it did last year!

Today was a pretty laid back day. Met Mandy & Syd for dinner at Pizza Inn to enjoy a "girl's night" since Matthew and Kenny are out of town. It was nice to catch up since we don't get to see each other as often as we'd like. After dinner, it was off for dog duty and then home for laundry and American Idol. Now I'm just relaxing for awhile....prob headed to bed to read some more of Breaking Dawn. So far I've only read the first chapter...it's good, but I just can't find the time to read! Maybe I can finish it this week while Matthew is gone.
