However, I love Tuesdays because I get to share my weekend with you. Friday night I left work an hour early so I could rush down to the the Super Adoption and help CFPU because they didn't have enough volunteers. It was nice to be back volunteering with them, and I got to walk the dogs and meet them all. I haven't done it in a while.

Saturday was pretty laid back until I went to my little brother's house for his birthday BBQ. I had such a good time with my family, and this is the view from his front yard:
Sunday I had a date. Yes, a first date. It was with a friend of a friend who I had actually met a few years ago at a party-small world! However I was a bit too honest apparently, and I was nervous so I teased the whole time... You know that whole "use humor to deflect" thing. Haven't heard from him since so I'm guessing he's ducking out... But I looked damn hot:
Shawn was in Vegas all weekend, so he brought me back new dice. You see he'd just told me last week (in regards to my romantic life) "Girl, you need some new dice because you keep rolling snake eyes!" So he left them for me this morning.
Seeing as I spent the entire evening downing wine last night... 4 glasses to be exact... Now is a good time to focus on my happy list. Here's what is making me happy (other than the things mentioned above!) this week:
- My New Chewbacca shirt. It's so cute!
- Beth sent me a surprise book in the mail, and I'm excited to start reading it. She told me I'm going to get a good laugh out of it!
- It's been lovely and rainy for like a week! That's always nice!
- I went to Noodles & Co last night hoping to get some Mac & Cheese, but they've now posted the calorie counts on the board and I was NOT eating something that has 1500 calories in it. I just couldn't do it. I went for Thai soup with no add ins for only 480 calories. My need to be healthy is finally overpowering my desire to eat tasty things-I am loving this!
- I'm really starting to think of myself as someone who is pretty, and I'm learning to love myself despite my issue with my weight, which is a nice turn around!

Well if you can't love you, then how can anyone else? (At least, that's what they say, right? :0 ) Happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're starting to see yourself as pretty, because you really are!
ReplyDeleteI hate that they put the calorie counts on the menu boards, but I suppose it does help. I guess I just wish it was optional here instead of mandated.
That is so awesome that you volunteer, I really want to volunteer for the local humane society but am not sure if I can find the time right now. Love the pictures of the puppies!
ReplyDeleteI feel honesty is the best policy, but that's me ;D
The book that Beth sent you looks like a good one! You'll have to let me know how you like it!
Let me know if that book is any good. I want to volunteer but feel like I have no time..
ReplyDeleteYou are right! You are pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteMoose cracks me up, well his pictures do. Beth is a sweetheart.
What a beautiful view!
You always seem to have the best weekends.
I agree with Jolene.....you are pretty. SPeaking of pretty: what a GORGEOUS view from your brother's house. Wow! Beth is so sweet and thoughtful. :D
ReplyDeleteVolunteering always makes you happy...it's good for the soul and karma!
LOL I love the Chewbacca shirt, too....how cute!
Thanks for linking-up!

The Between Boyfriends book is my favorite! I sent it Beth in the book swap. Clearly she enjoyed it! You will love it. So funny! Can't wait to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteThat view is AMAZING and those pups are precious.
ReplyDeleteYou did look fantastic. I'm glad you are starting to really see it.
