Hey everyone. I did a little clean up here, so I hope you like the plain look.

This past week was a little rough on me, because I had to be at work two hours earlier than usual. Getting up earlier meant training myself to go to bed earlier, which is not easy. It's not easy especially when I want to spend that extra time with Jason. So, I thrived off of two less hours of sleep. Surprisingly, I was not as drained in the morning as I expected to be, but the evenings were a different story.

Every evening when I got home from work, I'd have my mind set on doing something, only to be sucked in by the couch for a nap. I would barely hit the couch and I would be out. Completely out. One day Jason called as he was on his way home, and he asked what I was doing. I can barely remember what I said, but it went something like, "I'm laying on the co...ca..." I could not say the word "couch". It just got lost on the way out.

Also, I was unable to pack my lunch, seeing as how I was nowhere near a refrigerator that I knew of. See, I like to take my own lunch to work so I am not tempted by the fast food places. But, when that's easier, I just go for it. See, my desk is a LONG WAY from the 5th floor of the hospital, but technically I could spare 20 minutes for a round trip walk to and from my desk. I have decided that is exactly what I am going to do next week, too. When it's lunch time, I will just go get my lunch from our office refrigerator. It will be worth it to control my intake of fat. lol

In other news, we went to our neighbor's house on Friday night for "adult game night" and dinner. Several of us from the neighborhood were invited, and those with children could not bring them. Luckily, everyone has kids that are old enough to be left at home alone for a while. We had a lot of fun eating and playing games like Pictionary on a large dry erase board. Words that I had to draw: feather, water purifier, dress, headhunter, and maybe another one that I can't remember.

We are trying to do a little decorating upstairs, and we found this super cute lamp a few weeks ago at Ikea. I could spend all day in that store!
