Crazy Friday

Man oh man, I don't know where to start. I think i'll wait until the morning and edit this blog, but I wanted to make sure I got it in on Friday. Stay tuned, tomorrow morning I will complete Friday's blog.

Okay so it's Sunday and today i'm completing Friday's blog. My planned appointment to the spa fell through on Friday. I was really really upset at the young lady and still haven't called back to reschedule. Unfortunately, the funds were given directly to her for her services so I have to go to her but I needed to relax a little before calling her back to reschedule. I'm still a little igged with her but the past two days have given me a chance to get over it for the most part.

It took a minute to get over it though. All I kept thinking about was how I called her Friday morning to confirm and she asked me then if I could come any earlier, that was a sign right there that she didn't want to be there late. I told her no, because I don't get off work until 5 but depending on traffic I may get there at 5:45-6:00. She said we can keep it at 6:30, I said okay and we got off the phone. Now I received my certificate back in March for my birthday from my friends and co-workers withing the company I work for and have finally decided to use it. I over exerted myself in the gym so I could ache, procrastinated on getting a pedicure, *handled now and canceled a happy hour date with a girlfriend not to mention other entertainment offers. I was really excited about going and never happier about my back and shoulder/neck muscles being sore..................Why this heffa call me at 2:30ish talking about she needed to cancel my appointment because something came up. You know a sista was heated. But I did good not to call her back, and i'm a little better now. I think I will call to reschedule tomorrow and slide in the conversation about how much of a let down Friday was.

So that was my Friday folks, oh yeah, I was pressured into go to The Street. I'll make it quick and just say I should've stayed home, but it's all good. We did get it in on a song or two.

Over the Hump

Today was a good Thursday, in this order, I got some good calls in, took some of my hair down, helped "Nelly" get the monthly report out. Met an old friend for a drink in Silver Spring and another girlfriend joined us. Went into DSW for some looking and perhaps purchases with the friend who joined us. Then headed home to accomplish a to do list I created at work. I also talked communicated with a couple people today that was refreshing and on my to call list. I do believe I accidentally deleted a picture I didn't want to delete b/c I can't find it on my computer but oh well, i'll have to get another one when I go back home.

All in all it was a good day.

15th Beast

Today was the last day I am responsible for the monthly report. We had some "situations" along the way but it is out of our hair now. This means I will miss the gym and head straight home (unless my car steers me in another direction) to get on the treadmill on my balcony.

Tomorrow I meet an old co-worker for happy hour in Silver Spring and Friday i'm going to the Spa. The rest of my week should be pretty smooth now that the report is out of my hands.

No other new updated for now, talk tomorrow.

Uggghhh

I only logged in to be on the record as blogging for today. My body is beginning to feel the effects of working out after taking a bit of time off. Nothing unusual though.

Today was a typical day, work, gym and then to my bff house for consultation on writing a Business Law paper. He definitely made it easier for me after he broke down the content of the report, or told me what the content should include I should say. We made the decision that I need to go to the LOC in DC. That is my Saturday mission, along with taking down these braids. We'll see how that goes.

Signing out for now folks.

Typical Day

Today was a typical Monday. I have started my workout again. I don't know what it is about stopping and then picking things back up but for some strange reason, it's always harder to get back started. But every time I leave the gym, I feel so good and am so happy I went.

Outside of class and the gym, there really wasn't much more to today. Stay tuned for tomorrow, maybe it'll prove to be more exciting!

To Start Things Off

My week has started very nice, I plan on keeping it that way and I plan on keeping the new haps low key. It seems like the more you talk about stuff, the more you end up saying something, situation or person is wrong. So I figure, if I keep it low key, and not talk about the good or the bad, if it keeps being good, it'll be known, but if it goes bad, it won't even matter.

In addition to my usual homework and cleaning, I did a lot of cooking today as usual for a Sunday, but not as much as I had planned. My friend "Ann" has some grub left over she will be bringing in for lunch tomorrow, so I didn't really need to cook a whole lot. I watched two movies, Breach and Stealth. Breach was only okay, it didn't really get my attention to the end but Stealth was pretty good. I had no idea that is what the movie was about and i'm mad Jamie Foxx had to die of course. I wouldn't have minded watching that at the movie theatre.

Well tomorrow's a new day folks, and for the record the it's not looking good for the Barber or Marine......talk later

One of the last

Today was a good day overall, I got up this morning and baked my last cake and decorated my first cake. The decorations came out pretty good, as I use the kit more, I will get better at it i'm sure. The words looked a little shaky, but outside of that, it was a pretty good job for a first time with no practice or training.

After I finished preparing the desserts, I went and got myself prepared to head to the cookout. During that process, I had a really strong urge to call my best friend back home. She has MS and hasn't worked in a while so I wanted to check on her. I called and was happy to find her in good spirits as we shared jokes of the past and exchanged new things about our lives neither one of us knew about yet. It was so refreshing to hear her voice and laughter, she is all the things I miss about home....family.

The cookout was a blast, with good food and company we kicked it for hours and ended it with some good old karaoke. This family knows how to party and do it tastefully. There's never a dull moment with them. Being welcomed as a part of their inner circle feels good. I've been blessed all my life with a load of really good friend in my life who have my back and give me their support. Without some of these people, i'm sure I would be in a different place in my life.

I was going to step out with one of my girls to our spot but we both decided we'd let it go for tonight, I did attend a cookout today and that was plenty. It's winding down to the end of the summer which means today will be one of the last cookouts there is to attend. I guess springtime will bring more dancing...or maybe i'll have a boo :-)....or maybe not, lol.
