Random Updates - feelings of accomplishments

So this is nothing more than an update on my life right now...again, not that any of you care!

BUT! here i go

So, I went pumpking patching with my mom on Tuesday - talk about a total blast! We went where my mom used to take us as little girls, and while everything was smaller than I remember it being, it was still soooo fun! However, riding in the hay cart on the way to the patch, as well as marching around the pumpkin patch, really scratched up my legs, not mention all the little buggies that bit me! Literally, I look like a crack whore with all the bites and scratches...I'm itchin all over the place! Not to mention, I just CRASHED last night after work, and like a dummy, fell asleep in my make up, so Im all broken out from that now...REALLY crack whoreish...lovely! *update, most of the sores have gone away! = feeling less crackish!*


But I did finally tan the other day - the first sun in MONTHS due to the ridiculous work schedule I seemed to have this summer. (ALL AFTERNOON/EVENINGS!) Hey, but I'm blessed to have work during this awful time right now...thanks economy! Love you! It's true that Sun makes you feel better! Just being hot from tan makes me happy! Ahhhh love you sun!

I have downloaded some good tunes lately, which also make me really love!

So lately, I've been feeling all kinds of emotions that I couldn't quite put my finger on but when I heard that I had an interview to promote to the position that had been giving me all these emotions, I had such a sense of relief and felt like I could cry. Now please know, I am NOT a crier (and for some reason that word looks misspelled to me even though I know it's not!) Anway...like I was saying. I'm not a crier but all these emotions came to a head on Friday and I just felt like a I needed a good cry. I teared up and got contemplative for about 10 minutes, and then got up and went out to my bestest's apt. for a little girl get together. JUST what the doctor ordered. I left my melancoly ways at the door! It felt good to be with the girls I know and love. Anyway, the interview is Wednesday at 3pm. WISH ME LUCK....butterflies are here...that's a good sign!

On another sad note, Paul Newman...handsome Paul Newman died today! How sad is that?! I think he and Clint Eastwood, are two guys who get cuter with age. Now now...I'm not into 80 years olds, I'm just saying they're handsome. So in memory of him, here's a classic photo!

Recaping some more, I'm super bummed because Marshall lost to WVU today (again) for the 2nd year in a row in the "friend of coal" bowl. I'm sad because Marshall was on such a high from their last away win at Southern Miss. Oh well HERD...you can do it next week! GO HERD!

I feel super accomplished right now...it just started off as one of those days. I returned a book, mailed two letters, wrote a note of appreciation, opened my replacement sidekick, transfered my sim card and battery to the new one as well as packaged the old one to ship and got ready for work, all before 415am. I ran a smooth, organized shift today with ZERO people causing drama (PTL), I bought a thank you card, wrote and signed it and cut out fabric for my bean bags I'm making all before 9:30am!, - while at work thank you! I came home, sewed the fabric together, watched a football game, did laundry, painted the bean bag ramp that we'll be tossing the bags in, put corn in the bean bags, went back to work to get some supplies I'd need, got the mail, got scrapbooking
supplies together for a future project, ate dinner, printed off 40 pages of coloring sheets for tomorrow's coloring contest, took a nap and organized my iTunes all before 8pm! It's been a day of productivity! I'm sure that doesn't sound like a lot of hard stuff, it's just been a day of "DOING" stuff ya know? It feels good and unstressful! I'm thinking of keeping the trend going and just going to get gas NOW instead of tomorrow morning when I don't feel like it. (yes I think I will when I'm done!)

Well I hope you had a great day of fun and football! I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR :)
