Day 327 - This Time Next Week...

...I will be in a top secret location for middle sister's 30th birthday extravaganza!

Oldest sister and I have been in full-on planning mode to squeeze in everything we want to do.

I am so freaking excited it is making it really hard to get work done. I can't wait to finally pack next week.

Meanwhile, Barbar is in full-on sleep mode.

Day 326 - Oh, Hello

Just checking in like the lazy person I am.

All is well in the land of Hollywood.

Barbar is out of control since he turned 4 this weekend. Thinks he should be allowed out whenever he wants. Such a teenager!

Legal Eagle is coming up this Sunday. We are going to try to see a movie so that will be lots of fun. Haven't seen her since her graduation extravaganza...whoa, that was a long time ago.

Middle sister's birthday trip is coming up so soon! Time is flying by! I'm so excited for it.

The Brit and I are doing well. I think he's stressed about money for various reasons, but I hope it gets easier. He does have a very exciting possible project coming up which would be so great for him.

Work is OK. I'm going to possibly start taking on some more new stuff and try some different things with the site I work for. Could be good to change it up and hopefully it helps. We'll see.

All in all, I'm doing well. I have to get my wisdom teeth out though because I notice them growing in more. Sucky.

Day 325 - There Is A Good Side

Sure, it's weird and sad with the Brit gone all week (he returns Monday), but I have found that I have so much time to do things for me!

Like, I cleaned my whole apartment. It's never been so clean. I even scrubbed unscrubbed areas.

And, I finally got my haircut. After waiting for six months since my last one.

And, I think I will check out tennis rackets tomorrow and catch a movie.

Plus, I'm so ahead on work that I'm just cruising along.

I've even had time to play fetch with Barbar and just relax with him, doing whatever he wants for a change.

Oh, and did I mention I did four loads of laundry and will do more tomorrow?

Also, I went running almost every day this week, except Wednesday when I had my dental appointment. Which reminds me, I managed to squeeze in a 4-hour dental appointment.

So yes, I am excited for the Brit to return, but I've also learned how much I can do with my time.

Now, to cook dinner and check out what Barbar is staring at out the window.

Day 324 - Lunchtime With The Sullivans

Barbar and I eat lunch together. This is because I have been having boring turkey and ham sandwiches, but he could not be happier and I really love our little mid-day break.

He wakes up when he hears me opening the packages.

I sometimes give him an appetizer of meat while I'm making my sandwich.

Then, we both head to the living room to eat. I think he actually likes the turkey better which is shocking because he loves all pork.

He sits patiently waiting for more bites to eat. Usually he's pretty good about sitting, but today he tried to climb on the table.

Now he is napping because the ham and turkey knocked him out. And, mom goes back to work.

Day 323 - Exhaustion Is Here

Oh god I'm so tired.

This week has already been mad with me trying to get ahead on work. Legal Eagle's law school graduation is Friday so I have to be on top of everything so I am ready to go down to Orange County that day.

Also, the Brit leaves town for a family vacation early Friday so I'm also trying to squeeze in time with him.

So, basically all I want to do is sleep.

Tomorrow I have to work, work, work, pack for the weekend, wrap LE's grad gift, head over to the Brit's for an early dinner. Then Friday I will get up early for more work and hopefully no other chores if I get everything done tomorrow. Possibly a little gift wrapping on Friday if I get her a few other things.

I was supposed to do laundry this week, but that didn't happen. Luckily I can work with what I have for the next week or so.

It will be a busy weekend with LE's grad on Friday and then a big party Saturday afternoon with a billion people.

I will pretty much collapse once I get home until I go to my 4 hour dentist appointment on Wednesday that I have paid an arm and a leg for.

Hmmm, so the Brit will be gone for a week and a half and while I am bummed he'll be gone, I am kind of sort of excited to have that time all for myself. I will (hopefully) take care of so many things and get lots of much needed rest.

For now, while I would like to paint my nails, I will instead head to bed with Barbar and be asleep in the next five minutes.
