We do not go to LR next week - but the week after next.
I could totally see me showing up a week early.
Oh, my head hurts!

{this & that II}
oh, where do I start?
First, nothing hugely eventful, catastrophic, or cataclysmic has occurred. That's always very good. Especially in my neck of the woods. ;)
*I'm dreaming of the beach. But, of course with everything going on...who knows what will happen to those vacation plans. And, in the whole scheme of things, my vacation plans are pretty insignificant.
*I have snagged some pretty cute summer dresses. Note: none of them are strapless. But, I have scored rather well at Wally World. Very simple, but cute and the prices have ranged between $7-$12. You can't beat that. And, the selection is much better at the locations in FS. In fact, there was a maxi-dress cover-up in a tan zebra print that could totally be worn as a dress. I didn't get that one, but I thought of HG!
*My.teeth.hurt! This morning I had to go in for my wires to be changed. That in and of itself is not bad, by night though if I have failed to take Motrin it can be rather uncomfortable. Well, today was totally unexpected as my ortho was frustrated that my bottom teeth are not moving well. Plan B whatever that was? I kept my eyes closed. Let's just say he used sandpaper-something to file four of my bottom front teeth on both sides. I am hurting. With the Motrin. And, the wire has already torn a hole in my lip. :(
*I am soooooooooooooo ready for summer with the boys. Honestly, that is the only thing that is keeping me going right now. I am so incredibly tired. I have mountains of medical records I am sifting through to turn back over and I just want to sleep! Two major reports that have to be finished by next week. However, just two more incrediably hard weeks. I did learn that I am not yet vested as I didn't technically go to an employee status until 2 years ago, even though I worked there 8. So, thousands of $$ that sits in my 401K from profit sharing will be gone. But, you know.........I honestly don't care at this point. That is just another indication that this is definitely time to make this change. Just don't tell my banker FIL! yikes!
*Scott's BF brought over a load of sand from his yard. Our big blue WM swimming pool is about to go back up! Yippee! It really doesn't take much around here. Someday I hope there is a nice, big saltwater pool out there. But, for today, our blow-up one does the job. ;) And, I plan to spend lots of time out there this year. So excited!
*I may be calling in the troops some next week. We have two trips to LR - one we can't take the boys (Scott's big one) and one we will. I just need to make sure everyone is where they are suppose to be? Next week will be totally insane. But, not going to think about it now!
*My latest sin: Ghirardelli Milk & Caramel Squares. Absolutely perfect for that swimsuit. Geez!

{kicking?}
Not here, but, I am alive. If only barely moving.
James' wedding went without a hitch (no pun intended) but, I have yet to recover. I will revisit in the somewhat near future as I do have alot to blog about.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day - it's always a day of overwhelming emotion here - but, maybe even a little more this year. But, all is good.

Thorns and more thorns come along with those roses. Ouch! The fingers are very sore this morning!

{roses, roses, roses}
I have 150 pink and white roses in my dark, cold bathroom in pots, pans, buckets, pitchers...really whatever I could find.
They are there to "bloom".
The countdown to my insanity is on! :)

{this & that}
I am pretty much dizzy at this point.
I have had rain-outs, make-ups, last minute rush orders, meetings, MD appts {of course!}, wedding planning, etc. etc etc.
*Today was a huge day as I met with my main "boss" attorney. He was super-sweet. I cried. He laughed at me. Basically I was given the assurance I was doing the right thing and the door was always open for me. After the drama of that was over, it was nice and I could finally breathe. And, let me tell you - I made it dramatic. I will fill you in on that one too. It hurts my head to relive it at this moment though. I know he is still scratching his head. I think he was even more confused than the time he offered me the full time staff position and after I left he wasn't certain if I had accepted or not.
Ugh!
*The insurance is looking very good. As crazy as it sounds, I think I may have 3 different options to take when I was TERRIFIED I wouldn't even have one. That would have led us to the high risk pool route. THANK.YOU.GOD.
*There is a light at the end of this very long tunnel. And, it finally feels like it's not a train.
*Thanks to my sweet friends for their calls, texts and vm's over the past few weeks. You have NO idea. I hope that someday I am not such high maintenance! But, I dearly love you all!
