Well, this weekend was full of pet sitting. I sat for 5 cats and 1 dog.

Went to visit with Biddy, Babby, and Bizzy on Friday. They were happy to see me. We made some treats for Mom and Dad to enjoy when they got home and we watched some TV together. They also got to watch me mow the yard from the deck. They wanted to be outside, but were not excited about the big grass cutter monster. so they kept their safe distance. That night, after treats were made and ghost stories were watched, we climbed into mom and dad's great big bed and slept the night away.

Saturday, i accidentally slept in and had to rush back to the cities to let Major Briggs out. I went over to his place, let him out, we plaaaaaayed, then kate came home. I ran to my house, fed Butters and Tysee-Boo and let them outside...then came back to kate's. We played with Maj all day...Later, kate and i went on the hunt for some dinner...we stopped at the grocery store for some frozen meals, and then stopped back at my house to get the cats in and feed them. Once that was done, i headed back over to the Erickson's to get ready for a night on the town with Kate. We ended up going out to sing some Karaoke. Had a blast!

Sunday, i went to see my dear friend, April. She's going to be having baby Kieran in October. Their first baby girl. She looks Great and was happy to have everyone there for her baby shower. After that, i went home, fed my cats and then headed over to See Major. We had a nice afternoon together. then kate came home, we at chinese food, and watched TV. It was nice. So i had a very busy weekend...and i'm looking forward to next weekend. I'm headed home to get a haircut. finally...then i'll just relax at mom and dad's for a while. i'm reeeeeeally looking forward to it.

i hope this week mellows out. i neeeeeeeeeed to finish picking up my room and get to my heaps and heaps of laundry. it's disgusting.

Tomorrow Jenna and I are going to Lanesboro to bike and spend the day outside being healthy and happy. I'm really looking forward to it. i'll have to remember to bring along my camera so that i can post some pics for you all to see. That'd be fun. yeah? yeah...


Today i went to Abs class and my tummy muscles are getting tight...they will be sore tomorrow. ugh. BUT, i'm looking forward to a chill night tonight, then all day in Lanesboro tomorrow, then a campfire tomorrow night and drinks and friends. should be a really fun time.

HAPPY FRIDAY! i'm so glad it's friday..more so because it's PAYDAY FRIDAY! who doesn't love payday friday? no one. no one doesn't love it. *sigh* well safe travels to those of you out and about. I'll update later when i have more to say! woo!

And she has a ring!

Isn't it beautiful. i never dreamed that this day would come...

Good Morning Faithful Blog readers...

Well...in comparison to Monday, i'd say i am in a much better mood. I think the Dora band aids i put on my heart are working. Anyway...wanted to give you all two tips for having a good friday at the office...

1) Wear your glasses. Seeing is much better than having bad posture as you scrunch your face against your computer monitor...

2) Stay Hydrated. Just because. Water is good. YUM.



There you have it. My expert advice concerning a happy friday.
Anyway...for real though, yeah i had my heart unexpectedly broken on Sunday, last...but in this past year, i have learned how to heal quickly. In this case, and i know this more than i have ever known before, it ISN'T me..it was him. I gave him the better parts of me...the caring, fun, loving parts that make me an enjoyable person to be around. i took care of him and I accepted him for who he was. Completely. But now wasn't the time for us. Nothin I can do to change that, so i just put one foot in front of the other and move on. Onward and upward. Can't change these types of things. So..since it is you, my family and close friends, who read this...since it is you who may be concerned about me, please know that I am ok. I will be fine. I already feel much better.

Can't wait to visit mom and dad tonight. AND SEE EVEYONE AT the Luehrs tomorrow!!!

Amen. haha.

Thank You.

Why do i always feel so bitter after a heartbreak? I'm stronger, but bitter. Did i really deserve that?

Hello again my faithful readers! I hope this blog finds all of you well and in good spirits. You deserve that...at the very least.

I am sitting at my new favorite coffee shop, Taraccino again. I had a nice iced vanilla latte this time around and the same good looking young man...RYAN...made it for me. He decided to ask me a whole bunch of questions today. learned my name and where i live and introduced himself..asking me my name. I still haven't gotten the courage to ask him for an application to work here, he's cute you know! BUT...i do know, now, that he has one year left of college, and is, therefore, a youngin. SO...there's that. Now i can't hook my roommates up with him. he's a youngster. hah. aaaanyway...no heart in my coffee tooday. DRAT!

i've had an awesome weekend so far. Firday night i went to the Horse races in Shokapee at Caterbury Park. My roommates and some mutual friends of ours all went together and had a great time. I did NOT bet on any horses, but perhaps the next time i go, i will. It was really fun to go do something different like that. I'd never been to a horse race before, and it was fun to go with friends and watch the majestic horses just run run run. cool.

Yesterday, i went to the batting cages with a friend of mine. He helped me better my swing by giving me pointers. Bat weight, where to hold the bad, how to keep my hands together when i swing...all that good stuff. we swung the bat a bit then went to get some food and a few drinks. After that, i got ready at his house and went to a wedding reception for some good freinds, Colin and Andrea Strandberg, who got married a few weekends ago. It was a BEAUTIFUL setup last night between Colin's parents' house and their neighbors. Beautiful landscaping and the weather was perfect. I saw Brice and Jenny, Jamey and Kate, and some good friends i haven't seen in a while. It was awesome. I had a great time.

Now today, here i sit in the coffee shop doing work that i didn't do friday...and waiting for Heidi, to call me. Heidi is in town from Texas and is at the twins game. I wanted to go with her, but i really had to get this work done. and if i didn't do it today, during the afternoon, who knows when and if i would have gotten it done. SO, there's that. I'll be heading to a twins game soon enough. I MAY meet up with JD later, but it depends on if he calls or not. I hope he does! :D Otherwise it's laundry and cleaning day. oh boy! lucky me.

well that's about it from me. hope you all enjoyed your weekend. hope to see you soon! xoxox
