It's Warm

Well it is actually going to be warm today. It's supposed to get up to 70. I think I'll go on a walk outside on my afternoon break. Which I'll need to do after lunch. We are having Danotos pizza today and watching the Disney movie Miracle. It's the one about the USA Hockey team. I guess it is for some leadership thing at work. Hey I'll never complain about eating pizza and watching a movie at work. Well the weekend at my parents was great. We had a really good time and their house is great. My Mom is actually a really good decorator. It is going to be a great house when we all have kids running around at Grandma and Grandpa's. I think that was actually part of the reason for moving as well. Nothing too exciting this week. Josh and I went to wing night on Tuesday which is new for us. We usually don't eat out during the week. Today I have a hair appt after work, then Josh and I are going to go on a really long walk instead of the gym and take advantage of this weather. Tomorrow Josh's Dad will be back in town so we are heading over to his parents for dinner. I think we are having a fish fry which I'm excited for. His dad makes the best fish, with homemade fries and hushpuppies. Saturday Josh and I will be on a mission to find a computer desk. We bought a new computer two weeks ago and it has been sitting in our guest room. So we want to go get a desk this weekend and set up the computer. Then we are meeting up with friends at the new bar in D-town to watch the final four games. This is the same bar the stool broke on me so I'll have to watch myself this time. Then I think everyone is coming back to our house to play some poker. So that should be fun. Well that's enough updating for now. I won't be on my computer tomorrow because I have a meeting at the State all day, so Everyone have a great weekend.

Ahhhhh....Warmer Times

relaxing at the pool bar

Well this is where I wish I was right now. Relaxing in the pool bar at Sandals drinking a Lemon Vodka Slushie. INSTEAD, I'm at my computer at work and outside the weather is 30 degrees. It's Spring time, that means we should have warm weather. But anyway. My weeks been going good. I'm proud to say that Josh and I have been to the gym everyday this week and plan to go today after work. It just feels good to be back on a normal work out schedule. Tonight we are busting out our quesadilla maker and having quesadillas and spanish rice while we watch the basketball games. I know I'm a dork but I'm really happy they are back on tonight. Then tomorrow after work we are off to my parent's house in PA for the weekend. They got a new house in the same neighborhood just on the lake now. So we are going to see the house and visit. My dad did our taxes and we got a really good return so we told him we'd take him out to dinner Saturday. I think he wants to go to Red Lobster which is fine with me. I've kind of been craving seafood lately. Well that is about all with me.

HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone. The day is going by so fast at work and I am really glad about that. I'm getting off at 2:30 today then going with Kelly to the bar to meet up with the guys. They are actually at the bar as I speak drinking green beer and getting ready for the baskeball games to start. Go Buckeyes! We're just going to the Old Bag of Nails tonight. I'm pretty sure they have more sturdy bar stools than the last bar I was at. And what is with this snow on St. Patty's day. It was like this two years ago too. But hopefully it is warm and sunny this time next year for Miss O'Hara's Wedding. Everyone have a fun St. Patty's day and weekend.

Is it Friday yet???

I can't believe it is only Tuesday. I guess the week always goes by slow when you are looking forward to the weekend. My weekend was good. Friday night I went out and got a lot more drunk than I expected. We met Jodie and Buck out because their uncle who is awesome was in town from Canada. So we went to Happy Hour at Old Bag of Nails, then to a new bar in D-town. I probably could have slowed down after the 3 Blue Moon drafts at Old Bag, but I didn't. We met up with some other friends at the bar and it was one of those nights were you just sit and talk and the next thing you know you've downed like 8 Miller Lites. And the shot Buck bought us of yager didn't help out either. Needless to say I was pretty hungover on Saturday and I haven't felt like that in a long time. And a funny story to add for that night was that Jodie came down to the bar to get her keys from Buck and she has Tyler with her (her 3 yr old) When he saw me he came and ran and jumped up on my lap for me to pick him up. Well I am sitting on a bar stool which is kind of high off the ground and the next thing I know I hear this loud bang and Tyler and I are on the floor. I looked over and the stool completely broke in half. My ass hit the ground so fast and I have the biggest bruise on my butt. I'm just glad Tyler didn't bang his head on the table on the way down. You know I do know some good lawyers, maybe I should sue, ha ha.
Saturday we had the memorial service which was really nice. It was closure for Aaron and Heather and that was good. They are going to try to have another baby this summer which is good news.
This week I'm excited for March Madness. Josh and I both get really into it. He is actually taking off Friday to go watch the games at the bar all day. I'm not going that far, but I am getting off like an hour early since it is St. Patty's Day. A bunch of us are just meeting at the Old Bag of Nails which is an Irish Pub, and will be celebrating there all night. I'm sure we'll be out in full force Friday so I'm assuming our Saturday will consist of sitting on the couch watching basketball games eating some greasy food :-) Sounds good to me. Have a good week everyone.

New Post

I thought it was time I put up a new post. Nothing much exciting has been going on with me. I've been pretty busy at work so that is good. I hate when I don't have much to do, the time goes by slow. I changed my work schedule from 7:00-3:30. This way I can meet Josh at the gym after work and still be home to make dinner by 6:00. I'm an early eater. I am inteviewing someone this afternoon. He is a college student from the University of Toledo. I guess he is trying to get into the same program I did after college and we have to interview him at our office for our Headquarters office in D.C. That should make the afternoon go by fast. Last night we had a meeting to oganize a golf outing to raise money for Trevor's Scholarship fund. I'll let everyone know details when we figure everything out if you would want to play or make donations. This weekend not much is going on. It is supposed to be in the 60s here on Friday, so Josh and I are going to play golf after work as long as it doesn't rain. Then probably go out for dinner and some drinks. Saturday we have the Memorial Service for Aaron and Heather's baby. Then I think we are having Olivia for the night because Doug and Kate are going out for Doug's birthday. So that should be fun. She is getting so big and talks a lot now. She's like a little person :-) Ok well that is all I have to say I guess. A pretty boring post I know. Ok well have a good week everyone.
