Just a Sunday....

This weekend felt good.....yoga.....hair appt....rented movies....TIVO.....phone calls......cooking.....laundry.....resting.....peace....

It was 88 sunny and breezy here yesterday, absolutely beautiful. Lots of time to think, breathe it in, relax.....Changes are in the air....being put in place.....I am thinking July....we shall see....

MG was out of town this weekend, he gets in at 10:30, can't wait to see him. I have surprised him by making a casserole for dinner, brownies, snacks, etc.....didn't want him to have to worry about it after his crazy weekend....

This week at work will be nuts....have to prepare for the conference in Orlando the week after....I am not really looking forward to that......for many reasons.....do you wish to go to Orlando in June? Didn't think so....

Lots of events this week which take me back to thinking of those adventure books....which ending will I choose, well not really which ending, but what will the next chapter look like....

My brother and D come Thursday-Monday, SUPER excited for that. Their first time in CO, I have fun events planned, the weather should be great, and they will be the first in the family to meet MG, FUN :)....

Hoping all of you have had a restful weekend too....

Oh to be a kitty...

Sherbert or Sherbet....

Love having debates over ice cream. Never knew it was spelled Sherbet...so funny. We had this whole debate at work yesterday and I put it as my FB status.....love getting a lot of comments on that....

SO my world has changed because Yogurtland is coming to Denver. I called corporate HQ while at work the other day to find out the exact dates the two stores are coming here. I had the receptionist in stitches telling her that I work with CA peeps and we miss Yogurtland in CO and that our lives were going to change with it coming here. I also told her someone stole my million dollar idea because I wanted to bring Yogurtland here! Too funny.........

ME Weekend....

is it bad I am already counting down to the weekend and it's Tuesday? I am working from home Friday and plan to yoga Friday and Saturday and maybe Sunday before I pick up MG at the airport from NY around 11. I plan to stay in......which I can't wait for and just catch up on things. A weekend with no visitors, no obligations, and a little ME time, a date with myself.......3 more days to go.....

What a weekend....

has such a blast with Kel here, oh my goodness, we took the town by storm! I was happy to show off my new city and I think she really liked it! Fri we did HH and MG met us, Sat we got nails done, had a great lunch, did some shopping and then dinner & drinks with MG......Sunday breakfast, walk around Wash Park and then Lola for Sunday afternoon HH before departing for the airport. So great to see her and she and MG got along great which is awesome.....I mean he is super easy, I never worry but still makes me happy when I get the seal of approval, esp. from my oldest friends.

It is beautiful today, a sunny 73......M,M, A, and C are coming over tonight for panini's and Lakers.......I know some of my friends are Suns fans. I am looking forward to a little friendly banter because I am so excited for the Lakers. I am also excited for this week/weekend......some down time finally and some more clarity on some pretty important decisions.......hope everyone out there is having a good Monday.....

Remember those books...

you would read as kids and when you got to a point in the story you could choose to either pick this occurrence or that occurrence and then the story has a completely different turn and a completely different ending......I sometimes think of my life like that.......how certain events can take you on a completely different path.....open another door.....how do you know which one to choose and which way to go.....and maybe a tiny part of me wishes I could step outside of it......read ahead and see the choices and how they end up........before deciding which path to choose....funny to think about life that way..............isn't it?

If you are having a bad day....

and you go to the gym to "work it out" and "Don't Stop Believin" comes on your IPod, play it 4 times in a row, it helps......:)

Mom, Dad, and Jasper

I met the Parents...

I was nervous as you know I always get for these things but I just tried to be myself. I am still fighting this cold but going to yoga today really helped. I had a really nice time. It was fun to see where he comes from and just get a sense of them. He says they really liked me, we'll see! I find myself thinking during the dinner "what do they think of me", "do they like me", and all these silly things......it is hard meeting the rents for the first time but it also feels like a relationship milestone and one I am ready for with MG. I miss him.

I'm actually glad we didn't get together with both set of parents this weekend. I am more protective of my parents after the last incident. I would rather have that come a bit later.....as bad as that is.....just being protective.......

This week MG and I are both here, AMAZING! and this weekend KG is coming to see me! How fun will it be to have one of my besties here, her sister KG can't come because of the baby, but they are my oldest friends and it will be wonderful to have her meet MG and see my new surroundings. Lots to look forward too.......Good night.....

Mom and Dad were in town..

and it was so great to have them here. I was sad to see them go. I got to show them a bit of Denver and we ran some spontaneous errands. Dad covered my deck fence with chicken wire so now I can have the door open and not worry about Jasper falling below! Mom helped me pick out flower pots for an over the deck flower pot holder.....so cheery now, I love it. The Lakers won and I was able to take care of my parents a bit which was nice for a change. Funny things happened like when I was cooking dinner I set off the fire alarm in the entire building and then this morning we woke up to that too.....that WAS NOT my fault, but man, what a wake up call on Mother's Day. I miss my parents, I am glad I get to see them again on Father's Day....

Tipping Point

It seems we have hit a fork in the road here at work......we will either really make it or we won't....it's a lot of pressure......most pressure I have felt in a long time. In some ways I feel like a storm is brewing and in others I somehow have the ability to remain somewhat calm through it all. It is weird.....I just feel too strongly about what we have done and what we can do to believe this can't make it.....I just might lose my partner and that would be really sad.....have to keep pressing......have to keep believing.....have to stay positive......have to keep selling.......

Falling...................falling................

Fallen............:)

Sunday

A day for errands
A day for getting ready for the week

Tipping Point at work this week.... A lot will be discovered and somehow I know that whatever happens I will be ok. I can't even talk about it because so many lives involved but just focusing on the positive and what I can control.

Great night last night for M's bday. Waiting for my grilled cheese and soup if that gives you any indication.

Running errands and getting ready for my parents to get here Thursday.

Go Lakers.

Can't wait to spend afternoon/evening with MG. He is slow cooking pork right now. YUM

Happy Sunday...
