Week in Review...

I don't lead an exciting life and nothing I say in this blog will interest many people, but it is my way of documenting what is going on in my life. Maybe someday my posterity will enjoy reading about me.

Work Work Work - Things are starting to gear up for fair season at ole CFSA. I have been busy trying to keep up. It is nice to know that this will be the last year that I have to stress over deadlines, payroll issues, office politics and petty gossip!

I had dinner with friends at an excellent Japanese Restaurant, Mikuni's. I usually order a Bento box that consists of Teriyaki chicken, tempura, rice and California Roll (that is about as sushi as I get). Well these two friends are veteran Sushi lovers! They insisted that I try something new and walk on the wild side! Some of it was good but the raw tuna was just too much! I was a good sport and tried everything, but I think I will stick to California Roll from now.

I am reading this book. I am having a hard time getting through it. Some parts are very good and I agree with - other's are a little out there so I am skipping those sections. It was recommened by a friend and he assured me that it was very helpful, so I am trying to get through it.

This is what my DVR list looked like for the week:
Cupcake Wars
Kourtney & Kim Take New York
The Bachelor
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Kings basketball games
The Biggest Loser
American Idol
Top Chef Texas
Grey's Anatomy
Project Runway Allstars
Private Practice
Four Weddings
Dateline
20/20
48 Hours
Some of my favorites are missing from this list since they were all reruns. They are:
Desparate Housewives
Pan Am
Teen Mom 2
Modern Family
Parenthood
The Middle
(WOW I watch way too much TV - This is a little embarassing)

Well that's my exciting week! Maybe this next week will bring more fun and excitement! Who knows - each day is a new adventure....

I sure hope Mitt wins the Florida Primary!!!

Saturday

I am not a big football fan but that 49er game today was awesome!! Go 9ers! I hope they make it to the Super Bowl and play the Ravens. Erin would love that!!

After the game I had dinner with a friend at the Zinfandel Grille. That is an excellent restauant that I will definitely go back to...

So far this is a great 3-day weekend!!

Enough!

I hate being sick! I am a very healthy person and the only thing I ever get every year is a cold. Unfortunately, when I get a cold, I get a cough that hangs on and on. This cold I got in November just before I left to go to Utah for Thanksgiving. Being sick on vacation is not fun. I had to stay away from my little grandson Owen and that made me really sad. The cold soon went away but the cough hung on for an extended stay. It has not kept me down but it is so annoying coughing constantly. I am sure my co-workers are so sick of listening to me hack away. Cough drops and cold pills have become my best friend!

I decided I had had enough this weekend when I started feeling like crap again. My cough got worse and my throat started hurting and my head was all stopped up. I headed over to the the local Urgent Care Center only to be told it was just a virus that will go away eventually! I was prescribed an inhaler which I think is a waste. I don't have asthma people! I guess I will just have to suffer through for who knows how long before this yuck goes away!

I have just been laying around all weekend watching movies and shows I have recorded and trying to learn how to use my newest toy!! I guess things could be worse!

Sleepover at Grammys

Last week while the boys were still here I had a sleepover for them. It was so fun spending the whole evening with them watching Lion King, eating pizza and brownie sundaes and making pancakes. They are such awesome little boys and I love them so much. Can't wait to do it again!
