my hubby celebrated is 34th birthday yesterday. we had fun with all the family at a dinner at cattlemans steakhouse. he sure knows how to pull in the cash! he manages to get more than everyone it seems. :)

tonight i am taking him out to dinner. it is a surprise and i hope he likes where we are going. i think it should be fun.

yesterday i attended the memorial service and it was one of the hardest services i have ever attended. i balled my eyes out. so sad.

onto happier news....

my hubby is interviewing next week for the out-of-state position his job will be transferring him to. the interview process is more of a formality. we should know soon if he gets the okay to leave. we would have to move to a new state in 3-4 weeks! that will be interesting. we will have to find a place to live, i need a new job, and move everything. it will be a little crazy for awhile, but i can't wait!

i guess i am still in shock from the news. we are hosting the memorial service at our church tomorrow afternoon. it has been such a blow to the family and they are having a difficult time with all the arrangements. hopefully having a service for the family will help them with their pain. i wish it wasn't to late for their son. i can not imagine the pain they are in right now. i am just praying that the Lord will comfort them.

saturday night i received a phone call that a guy that i had grown up with had committed suicide. the news broke my heart. his parents loved their son so much and they tried to help him, but there wasn't much they could do. he had gotten involved with drugs at an early age and as he got older the hold was more powerful. his mind had deteriorated in the past few years. every time he got high he would try to commit suicide. six times he tried and failed. his family tried to be there with him as much as possible, but no one could be with him all the time. Unfortunately the seventh time he succeeded. his family is taking it very hard. please keep them in your prayers.

monday:

the work day sucked because i was kicked out of my cubicle and thrown into a crappy cubicle. it is just a sucky, sucky, cube. now i have no privacy and everyone stops by to chat. very disrupting!

the evening was much, much better. my hubby and i went out for a very nice dinner and movie. we went to see hitch was a perfect valentine's movie.

tuesday:

i couldn't walk due to moving all the crap into the new crappy cubicle. my back was a mess. i had to stay in bed all day. my honey was very sweet to me though. he fetched me food, medicine, and whatever i needed. he is such a sweetheart.

wednesday:

i hobbled back to work where i attended a bunch of meetings and didn't really accomplish much work wise.

thursday:

i went to the eye doctor to get some spiffy new glasses. i didn't make it into work until almost lunch time. we all went out to lunch to say farewell to our co-worker who was let go. he is a great guy and everyone enjoyed working with him so it was very sad.

friday:

boring, boring, boring day so far. i wandered into work around 10 am and then went to lunch at 11:45 pm, i finally made it back to work at 12:30. i have spent most of the day transferring all my posts to blogger.com. i am moving my site to muddy-boots.blogspot.com. i am having mia at ciao! my bella! design me a new site which i can't wait to see. until the new design is complete i will post on both sites. now i am getting ready to go to the library with one of my co-workers. i really don't think that much work will be accomplished today. :)

tonight i am spending the night at the sleep clinic. i am being tested for sleep apnea which should be interesting.

can't wait until this evening. my husband and i are going out for dinner and a movie.

wishing everyone a happy valentine's day!

whew! it has been one of those days. i have been on the bad side of one of my bosses. she has been on my case all day today. she was in one of those moods where nothing you do is right. oh well.

my husband and i went to the gym after work and worked out together. it felt good to get all my frustrations out. having my hubby there helps me to keep pushing myself. he is a great motivator.

i am soo happy! i weighed myself this weekend and i have lost 7 lbs! i haven't even been trying so now that i am working out and eating better i should be able to lose more. definitely a great confidence builder.

this picture of my work space represents my life view this week. i would love to have a fun and interesting entry, but my week has consisted solely of working long hours. i have managed to sneak in a few moments of blog surfing since my home internet is still down (hopefully to be fixed on monday).



shoes, shoes, i need new shoes. i hear the mall a callin' me. it is so beautiful and sunny and i can feel spring in the air. i love spring. can't wait.

i am wearing my yummy blue sweater which i love

except...

it sheds everywhere!

all over my jacket, backpack, even my keyboard.

It's multiplying.
