Sunday Smorgasbord

I unfortunately do not have any new information about Dave's condition. Thank you for all of your prayers, please keep them coming. I promise to update as soon as I know more. I'm hoping to get an update sometime tomorrow.

Two trips to Disney's California Adventure = awesome. First trip wasn't so fun, what with the bf being in a REALLY bad mood all day and being a jerk while we were there...but he's since apologized profusely and we're all better now. Today's trip was AWESOME. Just a relaxed day with the bf and our friend Trickster. He's an amazing rider and like a little brother to both of us. (updated the nicknames post with his and a few other new nicknames)

Went to the mother/daughter luncheon with the bf's mom yesterday, we had a great time. This was her last year organizing/running it. She actually worked out that the Knights would host it and would make it into a family event next year. They'll do the bbq, etc. The ladies will still run the silent auction and raffle, etc. I think it's a great idea. It will bring in a lot more people and subsequently a lot more money for the fundraiser. (a center for the support of pregnant women and mothers, wonderful organization) The bf's mom and I talked about having a girl's day sometime with lunch and a chick flick. That should be fun, she really is such a sweet lady.

Swine Flu has everyone in a tizzy for no real reason. I get the significance, I think the media just needs to chill and find something else to focus on. They're inducing an unnecessary panic. That being said, there was a chance of the campus I work at closing. In such a case, I would be considered "essential staff" and would still have to work. Lame. But our student who was ill was tested negative for swine flu, so I think we're pretty safe for the time being.

Beth's posts over at A Mom's Life inspired me to buy and start the 3o Day Shred. I'm doing really well so far. Even started a separate blog to track my progress. (yes, I realize I'm posting more consistently there than I am here at the moment...I'm working on it)

I suppose that's about it for the moment. I think I'm going to get some sleep now. I hope everyone has a wonderful week!

One

One month. :) All I can do is grin. You would grin too if you knew the details of my relationship track record. Let's just say that one month with me not even thinking of running? KIND of a big deal. It seems so fast, and so slow at the same time. I'm torn between saying "wow, one month already?" and "wow, only one month". It's funny. And the bf has something up his sleeve for tomorrow. (not today since I'm supposed to be elsewhere for a flute lesson and band rehearsal) I know we're going to dinner, I have no idea where. My cousin knows what he has planned, and has been instructing me in wardrobe selections. And, of course, teasing me that she knows. But hey, what are good cousins for? I seriously miss that girl, we keep having to push back her visit for various reasons. We're now up to the beginning of June! But it will be TOTALLY worth it! It makes me so happy that she approves of the bf, they get along really well.
I'm so excited for tomorrow night. My cousin told him that he knows me really well, when he told her what he had planned, so I know it's going to be wonderful. This whole weekend is going to be great. I'm going to a mother/daughter luncheon with his mom. She's one of the main planners of the event at their church, so I'm also going early to help her set things up. I'm super excited, I love doing that sort of stuff. And I think it's great that his parents like me so much. Afterwards, the bf is taking us to a baseball game, which should be amazing, seeing as I absolutely love baseball. Overall, not a bad weekend. :) I'm very much looking forward to it.
I'm going shopping for a denim or khaki jacket after work this afternoon, want to wear it tomorrow night. After the bf and I get ice cream of course. :) It feels like Friday to me!
I felt like I needed some sort of celebratory picture today, so I chose yet another from my cousin's visit. This one is us toasting after breaking open the wine the bf bought for us as a "housewarming" gift for me. (we had to buy something at Trader Joe's when we went out for sushi, so he bought wine)
