Dear Diary Friday...

Yes, it is Friday and I am here at work....cry for me. I had Monday off so I am just working the last four days of the work week to make sure I have all of my hours in. Plus, the Customer Service Supervisor is out having knee replacement surgery and I promised my boss I would work most of the Fridays to make sure we have somebody "in charge" around here. How frightening of a thought that they think I am going to act like a boss!!!

Tonight Dylan and I are going on a "date". We are going to dinner and then to one of our favorite romantic places to walk around and relax. We have not had a chance to really connect in awhile and so tonight is just the beginning of our vacation tomorrow. Unfortunately that magical spell will be broken by our marathon cleaning session tomorrow!!! We are scrubbing the house down and doing every stitch of laundry before we go to Vegas so that when we get home, we will have a nice clean house. Yes, I know that it sounds freakish to want to have a clean house when you are not even going to be in it, but it would drive me insane worrying about it!!

Again, I am just sooooo looking forward to getting out of town and relaxing for a week...he and I are in desperate need of this. It will be hard not to have my "babies" around me all the time, but Dylan and I need some downtime after a year of just straight insanity.

Dear Diary Thursday...

I really hate allergies and that is one of the reasons that I love SNOW! I have been sneezing, my head hurts, and my nose won't stop running this morning....I HATE ALLERGIES!!!!

Anyways, issues with cars. I have a HUGE crack in my windshield that is growing by the second AND Dylan and I need to get new tires for his vehicle. So, tonight we are getting his tires and I am going to call around and price windshields. Thankfully I only have a $60 deductible on my insurance.

I think I also forgot to mention that I am no longer a blond. I got a new haircut and color last Saturday. I am getting use to it, so right now, I don't have a lot of nice things to say about it. However, in defense of the hair, everybody else just absoltely loves it and I have received some very sweet compliments on it. I might keep it until we get back from Vegas but that will probably be about as long as I can go.

And speaking of Vegas..., I CAN NOT WAIT TO GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE AND GO TO VEGAS!!!!

Dear Diary Wednesday, part deux...

I just can not say enough times how excited I am about getting away to Vegas with Toni and Rob and Chet and Shane and of course, Dylan. I need this, I want this, I DESERVE THIS time away with great friends with great energy. Toni and I are literally counting down the hours and minutes until we are out of the office. The R and R that will come along with this is long overdue.

Have I said lately how excited I am about Vegas.....

Dear Diary Wednesday...

Ah, the joys of coming back to work after a four day weekens almost make taking time off not enjoyable....almost!

The folks are home from Hawaii and they actually had a great time. I am thrilled for their return, as it takes a bit of the load of stress Dylan and I have been under down one notch. Now we only have our house and his folks house to take care...and honestly right now, that is as much as I think either one of us can handle. We sincerely have not spent any time together as a couple since before just after the wedding, as we have been running here and there trying to take care of things. This honeymoon could not come soon enough!!!!

The situation over at Dylan's folks house with his cat Moshie are turning a bad corner. She has decided to pee all over the house AND is not eating. Dylan and I have to hold her in our laps and hand feed her, which is alright with me, but a bit frustrating for my man. I have been down this road a few times before with aged/sick animals, and I know what the conclusion is. Hopefully she is just pissed about Carol being gone and will snap out of this when Carol returns on Saturday. However, animals also let you know when it is "their time" and I think she is starting to do that. As much as it kills me to think of this beautiful creature not being a part of our lives, I know it is best for them to let them go when it is "time". Keep your fingers crossed that she is just being a little snot because her mistress is gone and will be okay soon. I will keep you all posted.....
