Vacation Day!!

I had a nice day :) I have been going through nephew withdrawal (really? "awal?" whatever spellchecker) since I got home on Wednesday... so it is a good thing that my brother sent me home with a bunch of DVDs of the boys! It is also nice to be home with my Fat Kitty (who has been in my lap loving on me every time I sit down) and my pupper dog! Yesterday was a nice day too as I got my hair cut and then had lunch with my favorite Marci at Famous Daves (MMMMMMMmmmmmmm!!) We laughed off the calories :) Now I only have two more days before classes start again, but today was definitely a nice relaxing vacation day.

Here is a list of things I did today:

1) Slept in (ahhh... vacation!) Another nice thing about being gone is that Fatness is off of his 5:30am breakfast schedule and he let me sleep until 7:30! (I also went back to sleep after I fed him)
2) Stopped by CC to drop off some form that someone needed to bind my MR paper... this was only nice because it gave me an excuse to get breakfast out :)
3) Stopped by Sharla's to get Sherlock's leash (she was dog-sitting him while I was gone) She also gave me the inside scoop on a used bookstore where I might be able to start my classroom library.
4) Went to Petsmart - this might not sound like a very exciting thing, but I got to pet all the out-for-adoption kitties (one of which was a Big Fat Grey Kitten!! He was ooooh so cute!) I also had a coupon AND almost all the things I needed were on sale too!! I did good :)
5) Got my snow tires off... yah I figured it was about time :) I walked across the street to Walmart while I was waiting and bought myself a new plant. New plants make me especially happy!! I might put a picture on the blog if I ever find my camera.
6) Took a nap (ahhhh... vacation!)
7) Went for a nice hike with the pooperdog. We went up to the reservoir and I chatted with a super-cute guy while Sherlock played.
8) Did NOT get icecream on the way home.... I thought about it, but I didn't!
9) Made myself a yummy pasta dinner... tomorrow I am going to the store to get some groceries including peaches, spinach, feta, and onion to make my most favoritest salad (thanks to my friend Bronwyn!!)
10) Started writing a grant to get money to buy all kinds of fun school stuff for my new classroom (I figure I should get it done before class starts and I have homework - blah!!)

See? Productive, relaxing, stress-free.... ahhh vacation! :)
