I Have No Clue Where to Start

I feel like I haven't updated in so long, so this will be the cliff note edition.

On Tuesday one of my student workers told me I had Madonna arms. Oh.my.gawd. Even though Madonna's arms look slightly scary to me, I am really flattered that my student worker would say that.

I left worker around 3 on Thursday to go home to West Virginia. On my drive home I stopped and had dinner at Krissie's. She was so gracious and invited me stop in for dinner on my drive home. It was absolutely perfect. Krissie and Nate have the cutest house. They are the cutest couple and I can only hope that one day I can find a man who complements me as well as Krissie and Nate doe each other. They made a wonderful dinner of pork, sweet potatoes, and mozzarella and tomatoes. I was able to catch the last 2 minutes of the Belmont-Duke game. Belmont almost pulled off the win. If that would have happened that would have been the upset of the tourney. At least the Mounties finished off Duke yesterday. Thank you Krissie for amusing me and letting me watch the end of the game before I got back on the road!

Friday I slept in for the first time I can remember and didn't wake up with a hangover! It was glorious. I had an 11:30 session with my trainer, so I got there at 10:45 to do 45 minutes of cardio. The whole workout was glorious and just what I needed to jump start my gym routine. I have said it before but my trainer is awesome. I really do love him a lot and owe him a lot, I owe the Madonna arms partly to him. He told me the upper part of my body is looking good :)

My mom and I had dinner together and went shopping the rest of the evening.

Saturday we got up early and went to the mall and had lunch together. I got a manicure, an awesome new trench coat and a pink sweater. We had spaghetti for dinner. I had originally thought the spaghetti sauce was bean-less chilli, whoops! After dinner we worked on cleaning up the dining room, family room, and living room. It is still not how I would want it, but it is looking a lot better. Later I went to visit one of my good friends from high school. She and her husband just opened up a donut shop. Oh my! Yes I walked away with a dozen donuts AND an apple fritter. Have no fear. I shared with the family, but I did eat quite a few on my own.

Ok, so I am in love with my mom's wedding band that she no longer wears. It is just so different from anything out there. She doesn't wear it anymore because it is too small, and well , she has much bigger rocks to wear now. Every time I go home I try it on to see if it fits. I have gotten it on before, but it has always been a little tight. This trip it fit the best it ever has, so I took a picture ;)

Today I drove home and am pissed at my roommate who left one of her cats at the place since Thursday since she said she couldn't get it into her car. She is on spring break and went home and won't be home until next Sunday. I don't mind the cats normally. But I do mind when they sleep in my bed for 3 days and there is cat hair and dirt in my clean bed. So when I got home today, I spent over an hour cleaning my room. Umm, did I mention the fact that she just left one of her cats without talking to me about it in person and just left me a voicemail? Not cool.

I have so much more to share with you all, but I will save that for this week.

Happy Easter!

Sounds like an awesome, jam-packed weekend! (minus the cat stuff)

The ring is beautiful! I love unusual pieces of jewellery and what a great way to gauge feeling/being smaller...

My parents had their wedding bands custom made at a shop in Seattle. One day as soon as it fits the way I want it to, that bad boy will be mine!

Anna I will be in Seattle/Olympia area for a wedding on August 16 and so will my mom! I am sure we will be making a trip to University Place to visit the Thieman's. I will be in WA for a little over a week, so we will have to meet up!
