Thursday-The Working from Home Edition!

Hi guys! As I work to be a better blogger, which I actually blame on not being able to blog from work any more…but that’s no real excuse. But as I work to get back into this community I thought I would drop you a line and a photo as I work from home this morning.

  • I have ANOTHER dentist appointment, this time to take out the bad crown and put in a new one and that will hopefully resolve all of the troubles I have been facing lately. But my dentist is like 10 minutes from my house, and my work is the opposite direction, so I decided to do my morning work from home. It’s a lot quieter here and I’ve gotten a lot of things done…including my hair! 😉
  • Lincoln is a big small town. Saturday while my boyfriend and I were working concessions at the Husker game a guy I used to date came through my line. Of the 90,000 people at that stadium, and all the concession stands, he had to choose mine? Ugh.
  • Then, we decided to take a pedi-cab back to the car after standing for 7 hours. Of the 12 pedi-cabs that were waiting we got the guy that I made out with 3 New Year’s Eves ago….
  • I don’t think he remembered me, but it was so embarrassing! 
  • I told my boyfriend later and he had to give me a hard time about it. When I said that he has kissed other girls before he said, “Nope. Just two.” I LOL’d at that!! Not bloody likely!!
  • I am running most days a week. The scale refuses to budge, and I know that’s because the miles are hard enough and I’m not strength training. I need to get myself back into it or I will be very unhappy soon.

Happy Thursday friends! Make it a great day!

Monday Things

I think it is time for a bit of a life catch-up. Let’s chat:

  • I went to the ENT on Friday about my teeth/sinus issue. I also saw the audiologist. I have “above-average” hearing, and no problems there. But I have some sinus issues that she prescribed antibiotics, prednisone, and Flonase for. I go back in 6 weeks to see if that regime has helped. Fingers crossed.
  • I’m getting an older crown replaced on Thursday. I am hoping that this will solve my issues there.
  • I was out running this afternoon and I got honked at a couple of times by some jerk driving by. He stared and winked at me as well. No thanks dude.
  • My boyfriend and I work concessions at the Husker football game this past Saturday (We’re undefeated, baby!!) and we met Larry the Cable Guy! 

He’s so nice!! He’s from Southeast Nebraska and is a huge Husker fan.

Life is pretty good here, I hope things are good for you guys!

“I should be to your house in 5 or 10 minutes.”

There are your monsters.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Love and miss you!

Look at those nuggets!!!

I’m here.

They came that way.

Maybe cleaning up and having a clutter free space will help

It’s good to have goals.

And it was GOOOD !

Very Tasty!

5 minutes until supper… maybe less

Yay!

Sunday funday indeed

Current status:

Sent home sick from work with a terrible sore throat, congestion, cough, and sneezing. I HATE being sick.

What a change from the Ocho when they would tell you to suck it up and work when you had a head cold…or sinus infection. It seems working for the department of health and human services means they are much more sympathetic to illness! (Also, having more sick time to use is pretty great too.) My coworkers were quite sure I have strep because it felt like knives in my throat this morning….I’m thinking it’s just a cold or sinus infection.

I’m loaded up on Mucinex and throat spray and snuggled into bed. The dog keeps wandering in to check on me…and occasionally cuddle with me!

I foresee a nap in my future….
