Friday...

Today is Friday!

Yesterday my mom had some tests done. I went down there to be with her. Everything turned out good which I was very excited about. I just don't know what I would do if anything ever happened to her.

I was also able to see my sister. She was working so I took her a soda when I got to town and then before I left to come home I took her a care package. A soda, a bag of chips and a pack of smokes. Her co-workers said that their sisters would never bring them anything. She told them that she had a good sister. It made me happy. She has things so tough that whatever I can do to make her happy, I will do!

Yesterday was one of my bf's b-day. She's the reason that I started this blog. She's the one that I'm following in the footsteps of. I've always wanted to be her - have her life (not to mention her DH - hee hee hee). She's the most caring person I know. She's always doing things for others and if one day I could have half the person she is......

My nephew is graduating in a few weeks. I'm so proud of him. He's such a great young man. I know it's going to be an emotional time for me - and my sister. We'll get through it. He's going to college where I live so I'm hoping to be able to see him more often.

I'm only working a half day today...so I better get to it.

Happy Birthday Missy!!!

Too Emotional

I'm too emotional.

I was told that today at work. I've been having a rough go at work after being blindsided with some news. A new position is being created, one that I wanted but one that I'm not going to get. I was told at April 9th around 11am. I had a complete meltdown. I don't meltdown much so when I do - it's big. I had to meet some people for lunch and then come back to work and have one of my biggest meetings of the year. I was still a mess and because I'm "too emotional" people knew it.

The meeting ended up being fine but I was told today - along with the too emotional part - that I need to take charge of my meetings. So I had one bad meeting because I got blindsided and now I'm too emotional. Whatever.

So I guess I'm going to have to start bottling things inside - which I actually already do. No more getting upset at work. No emotions. What kind of crap is that?

Spring???

I think it's finally spring. I know because I finally went topless on Friday. By topless I mean I had the top down on my MX-5 for the first time this year. I've been in such a funk lately, I'm really hoping that this helps. I had it down today - but it was pretty windy. I didn't care, I did it anyway.

My mom was up last Wednesday and we had a good time. She went out for supper and hung out.

Thursday night I bowled. It was the worst series I ever had (300) compared to two weeks ago when I had my best series (450). That's a swing of 150. DUDE! We had a good time though. Francine came out to watch and with the work people, it was .. like I said ... a good time.

Last night we all went to the movie (21). It was a good movie. I read the book it was based on. Although the movie and the book were different, they were both good.

Today has been pretty quite. I watched my 3 hours of 90210 on SoapNet and then Friday Night Light which I DVR every week. I never watched it when it was on, but now I watch the reruns. It's a great show. I hope it comes back. Then I went to the gym and worked out. I put some new songs on my ipod so I listened to that while I watched the Busch - wait - I mean Nationwide - race. Of course I missed the end.

I've been watching the basketball games. Memphis won the first one, which I'm happy about. Now the Kansas/NC game. Go Jayhawks.

Tomorrow will be grocery shopping, the gym and then a spaghetti feed. Not too interesting.

Work has really sucked over the past week so I'm hoping it will get better. I would say that it couldn't get worse, but you all know what happens when that is said.

Hopefully I'll have something more interesting to write tomorrow.
