Valentine’s Day

IMG_4383
So no one need recognize that is Saturday and not Friday. We are going to pretend that yesterday didn’t escape me!  🙂
So moving on . . . Did everyone realize that it is Valentine’s Day today?!
I actually like the holiday.
I like seeing men pick out flowers and look bewildered while doing it (case in point this morning at Sam’s club) and also asking other women standing around in a salon what they would like if they were getting a spa gift card (also happened today while I was getting my eyebrows waxed).
By way of announcement . . . I am not making fun of these men. I really truly love that they think today is important enough to be out and about early picking out things for their loved one. The only thing I want to do is run a website that functions like Pinterest but automatically emails the husband or boyfriend the updates of things that their woman likes and where to get it so that they don’t look so bewildered. It would be sweet justice for all.
So I think I should list the top 5 things I would want this Valentine’s Day. Anyone else care to join me?
1.       I am a SUCKER for flowers especially my most favorite flowers which are black tulips but these are my very close second runner ups.
2.       I am not a huge fan of chocolates but if I could have one of these chocolate peanut butter shakes from Moonstruck Chocolates I would be totally happy and yes, that is the world’s best chocolate peanut butter shake.    
3.       I think taking a walk here would be wonderful
4.       And I think the best saying on loving the right person is: and so the adventure beings.
5.       I would wear these for a night of dancing and no, I don’t mean clubbing. There is a difference. Got to act insane on this day once in awhile.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!

Hallelujah!

November & December 472
I am nearing the end and I have given my official end date to current job. It will be February 28th and then I might be bored . . . one could only hope. 🙂
In the meantime, I have decided that I need the following things in my life.
I mean really; I have lived in a hotel for the last three weeks and spent almost every waking hour in the office. I could be anywhere in the world and not know what is going on or where I am. So the following things I think would really put a smile on my face.
What do you need in your life right now to get through the day to day humdrum?
1.      An adorable animal 
2.      New clothes because I am already sick of what I brought with me. How long is the mall open tonight? These are pretty much awesome and this should make an evening out a lot more fun!
3.      A kitchen because eating out is VERY over rated 
4.      In fact, a house because the Holiday Inn Express isn’t that cool anymore
5.      A great place for a date 
And just because it is close to Valentine’s Day, I might have to get one of these too.:)

How the Week Went

10.27.14 022
I am coming out from the dark side and even though this is a week a late; I couldn’t help myself and am sending it anyways. It is the music only post and I wonder if anyone can guess how the week went?
Run through the songs and let me know. The one that guesses right will receive my love and adoration for eternity.
How is that for gift giving?! 🙂

So this week . . . what to say about it. At least I wasn’t in the office at 5:30am; at all . . . any day. Yea for me!! I also didn’t work past 8pm. I see improvement on the horizon! I am also finding it to be a very CLEAR crystal ball as to me moving forward with the intent to move to Ireland. April 1st, April 1st, April 1st . . . I have to chant it over and over when I am stressed.
This week we have returned again to the Places I Have Been post. I really like this post because it gives me a small trip down memory lane. Right now I am finding myself in the great state of Texas and so I decided that I would tell you about the places that I have been to in San Antonio thus far. I am looking for suggestions on what to do next while here so please be forth coming. I need stories for future posts! 🙂
1. When considering whether or not to move down here I had to look around for potential places to live. I know exactly where I would live.
2. I really do think the San Antonio River Walk is beautiful. Thank heavens because, let’s face it, San Antonio isn’t exactly known for its killer views.
3. I haven’t branched out past Mexican food since being here but that is because I am starved for it in Utah. While the best food I have eaten has come from a co-worker, this place is pretty good as well.
4. My office is currently across the street from the airport but more importantly it is across the street from where the San Antonio Spurs catch their jet for away games. Take that Sundance Film Festival!
5. And lastly, while driving through a neighborhood looking for places to live, I found Hollywood Park and I thought I had a deer problem in Utah.
