Slow

Well, it's been a relatively quiet few days or so, which is why there haven't been any posts...however, I have had some things happen in this week that I thought I'd share.


First off, on Wednesday, I had a great day with my SIL, Emily. She called me on Tues. and asked if I wanted to hang out and I said sure. So, she came over at 10:30 am. I gave her a tour of my house, since she'd never seen it before. Then we sat around my kitchen table and talked for a bit. (Talking will be a trend here.)

At around 12:00, we decided to go to lunch, so I took her to this place called Josephine's. It's a wonderful tearoom with delicious food. They have the best lobster bisque soup! And some amazing desserts. I got the soup and chicken salad and for dessert, I got Thunder & Lightening. A cheesecake with a brownie bottom and a layer of chocolate on top. It's was amazing! Emily got a ham sandwich and broccoli cheese soup, which she didn't like, so we exchanged it for a Caesar salad...which she only mildly liked. Hoped she liked the sandwich, she didn't say. She got chocolate chip cheesecake for dessert.

Then we went back to my house and we talked some more. And talked, and talked. She was at my house until 7:00 that night! And we talked the entire time! What was great was she essentially apologized to me for acting like she did at the wedding. She said that if she could change things now, she would have had me be a bridesmaid and realized I was only helping her. Ah, hindsight. It's amazing what it can do. lol!

In all though, it was a great day. We talked about everything and we had a really good bonding experience. I feel a heck of a lot closer with her now and we're even thinking of taking a trip down to the lake, just to two of us to visit our MIL on a weekend.

On to other topics...

Another one of my podcasts aired today. It was a REALLY fun one based off of Samantha Brown of the Travel Channel's recent Disney Favorites special. We talked all about our Disney Favorites. And some of them definitely weren't so obvious. Some were quite hard for me to find answers to! But it was a really fun experience and I think that came across in the show!

WHF is doing fine on the whole losing his job thing. He's really looking at this as an opportunity and not a bad thing overall. Which is good. I'm still really bummed about the whole ordeal, however, WHF has promised me he will not start REALLY looking for jobs until after our trip in Sept. to California. We still want to be able to experience some of the amazing hotels the company has to offer before he leaves.

I'm not looking forward to this weekend though. This weekend is Dance School #1 weekend. (We have 2 in a year...the other one is in May). Dance School weekend is a nightmare...and I've actually been having nightmares about it! One was that I was late getting where I needed to be and the other was that I was being yelled at b/c I wasn't sufficiently doing my job, however, in the dream, they had me doing other things that weren't part of my job.

I'll be glad when the whole nightmare is over...b/c this weekend is just the start. After this weekend, I have to order everything...then when it gets back, I have to make sure it's all correct, then package it all and deliver. It is definitely not a fun task! And I'm the only one who can do it, b/c it really needs to be a 1 person job. More people helping just make it more confusing.

Well, I guess that's it going on in my life right now. It's not too exciting, but it all adds up to make for a whole.
