Hola!

1. Getting up this morning and working out.
2. Seth and Jackson coordinating rides with me so I could work out!
3. Who ever invented fans, it is so hot in here!
4. Dog bones to keep Dixie busy.
5. Excel, although I'm having a love/hate relationship with the program right now, it would be much harder without it entirely!

Monday, again.

1. Some people being on travel and out of the office, helps to get other things accomplished.
2. That the work day is over already, it was a hard one today.
3. Squeaky wisconsin cheese curds almost gone, so I don't gain 500 pounds from them.
4. The weekend in general, because it was nice to have company.
5. People have put their clothes back on in KW.

1. My friend's hubbies made it home safely from deployment, and some even met their babies for the first time. Awww!
2. Cabbage soup really not tasting that bad.
3. Lots of work to do, very cool.
4. Dixie did well in her first big girl class, and sleeps a lot during the day.
5. Jackson, who gave me flowers and did the dishes yesterday while I watched TV. That was so nice...

Why hello again....

1. Travel. I love travel, but it did keep me from blogging.
2. Walgreens having cute Christmas tins on sale.
3. Being in a Christmas spirit this year, I've been so bah-humbug the last two.
4. Ceiling fans.
5. Sweetened Dried Cranberries - wouldn't eat them otherwise.

Since I have much to catch up on, some thoughts I had while on travel and no access to a computer at night:
1. iPods - to help motivate me when I do decide to jog, to keep me in deep thought while walking around the city, and for my sister who I know loves her music more then anything else
2. The Wright brothers, I can't imagine life without planes and flying. I miss seeing people get off the plane and greeted by their loved ones, meeting at baggage claim isn't nearly as exciting.... but nonetheless I love planes and airports.
3. Kinda on the same note - toilet seat covers. Especially in Chicago when they rotate on your own, the less you have to touch the better.
4. anti-bacterial gel
5. the ability to sleep on planes, I really do get the best sleep there. My neck may suffer a bit, but its the sacrafice I'm willing to make.
6. Staying in a Marriott again, love it.
7. Hotel rooms with full kitchens - walked to a grocery store and baked a cake for the office. So fun.
8. Law & Order always being on TV for when I want to veg.
9. Living the big city life last week while in Chicago, made me feel really alive!
10. Once again being able to work with an amazing group of people - intelligent, hard-working and that is very inspiring. I love it when you come across good people, especially a group of them!

Ginormous Post

This will be a Fri, Sat, Sun post!

TGIF

1. TGIF. It's just nice to get to the end of the week and have 2 days off!!!

2. Amy. Love my roommate! So much fun to clean and plan the party with!

3. The radio. I love being able to turn off the tv sometimes and get stuff done...having the radio on makes it fun.

4. Shelly for throwing out half my shit. It made it a lot easier to go through and clean up and organize and make it presentable for people this weekend.

5. September ending! I love this time of year!!

SATURDAY!

1. Only having to work a half day -- needed to go home and get shit done!

2. Target having just about everything we needed. The trips to Trader Joe's and Ralph's were quick because of the extensive inventory at Target.

3. Trader Joe's string cheese. Yes, I love it. No, it doesn't love me. And yet, it doesn't matter!

4. Pure Romance and Heather being a trooper!!! Such a fun party!! What a great group of people. Everyone had a great time drinking wine, eating snacks and passing around dildos...oh my! :)

5. Wine and everything! Ok, so I might have polished off a bottle of white wine...and I was feelin groovy! I'm so grateful that Kari and Amy put up with me and made sure that when I faceplanted at the end of the night, I at least faceplanted in my bed.

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY

1. Sleepin in. I only woke up with a bit of a throbbing headache. I suppose I owe this to the gentleness of the wine hangover as well....

2. Not gaining at WW. I'm choosing to be grateful for this even though it actually pisses me off. :) I didn't lose either, but at least I didn't gain!

3. Easy party clean up. Seriously, between the two of us and the dishwasher, it took no time at all!

4. Afternoon football. If it weren't for two sets of games, I would have had a 0 on the football pool this week...as it stands, I only have 2, but the bright spot is that the Chiefs beat the Chargers! Marty, what?

5. Party leftovers. Amy and I won't have to shop or cook for weeks! :)
