Time for a Break

It's been a busy past couple of days. Yesterday I was gone from 7am until almost 11pm, working all of those hours minus the commuting (about 10 hours at ARTEC, and 5 hours at Center for Change). And it would have been nice if it was a quiet, easy shift at the CFC, but it was pretty darn crazy and busy. Nonetheless, it wasn't bad and I was in good spirits after a loooong day.

And with all this work lately, the housework has suffered. Jack's been really great to help out, but if you're at all like me you like things done a certain way, and completely done. So tonight was catch up time! I got off work early, which was nice after yesterday. Jack and I had a meeting to go to, but instead of 2 hrs it only lasted 30 minutes. I did do a little blog-reading once I got home, and then The Hills was on so of course I had to watch that! I love that show!

But once I got down to business, I was off! I headed to Costco to get some gas (the car was running on fumes, really!), then I picked up some treats for a meeting tomorrow at work. Then it was off to the gym for a quick Elliptical workout, then back home to do some fast cleaning (so I could be done in time to watch American Idol)! With the iPod dock set to Faith Hill, I was ready to go. I did laundry, took out the trash (at least some of it), vacuumed, cleaned the bathroom sink and mirror plus a quick touch up of the tub, did the dishes, and cleaned up Toby's messy food/water bowl area. I love it when the house is clean!

So now it's time for a break - American Idol and blogging (Jack's at a work dinner tonight). Even though it's been busy, I'm really grateful for my jobs and am also glad to have a night to catch up!

I looked for your at conference but didn't see you. I was looking forward to hugging you guys.

I know - it was a bummer because we actually didn't make it to conference at all (long story, but we were at the ER until 1:30am the night before, so we really weren't up to an early morning!). Everything's fine...we were just sleep-deprived after the eventful night!
