forty days...

things accomplished

• finalized proposal with florist… {well my pharmacist eye saw where she has an 8 instead of a 4 for "# of table arrangements"… luckily the price is only for 4} …so almost finalized floral proposal
• first day back at the office without a resident to train or precept or teach or proofread or correct… you really take for granted just doing thing your own way {the right way} the first and only time!  accomplished lots there
• found yankee candles at Kohl's for 80% off!  {the reception bathrooms are going to smell sooo pretty!}
• DIY programs with tiny bows done & done!  {very therapeutic for an OCD girl} on another note: tiny bows are the devil!
• burned and delivered 1 of 2 photo cds necessary for wedding celebration!  {21, if you are reading this… as soon as i write you back it will be in the mail!}
• valentine's day crock pot chili ingredients ready to go!  ground beef has been browned and drained and is prepared for chili tomorrow

things i learned today

• you are silly to call your florist the day before valentines's day!  she sounded really busy for some reason!?   
• gf: "fisher's flowers"
• kd: "hey grove! its kd.  i am so glad i caught you in the shop!"
• gf: "yup! busy day with all the valentine's flowers coming in"
• kd: "i am so dumb… you can call me back wednesday if you need to"  {so dumb, for real}
• luckily i DID pick the ONE day of the year she was actually IN her shop!  she was even awesome enough to talk to me for the {final} changes! i heart grove fisher
• thou shalt not try to carry a macbook in one hand with a glass of water in the other hand whilst balancing iPhone ON TOP OF aforementioned glass of water whilst walking across the house in the dark whilst also face timing fiancé!  iPhone is "sleeping" right now in a delicious bed of jasmine rice!  isn't the name of the rice ironic?
• i am "allergic" to wedding planning… all of the planning i have accomplished has been WONDERFUL but has also sent an invitation for my little buddy "the terrible shoulder knot" to make an appearance again!  i must need another massage!

things that were not so accomplished today

• dishwasher is still full of clean dishes {glass half full perspective: i ran the dishwasher yesterday!}
• the self proclaimed 40 day less-cheese-more-core-work challenge did not start.  {i am considering this a plus though… since the 40 day challenge wil spill over in to married life now and i won't just immediately "let myself go" once all of these wedding shennagans have come and gone}

things i am looking forward to

• BABs comes home from 6 days away for work and a brotherly bonding weekend!  
• valentine's day chili!  all i have to do is open 6 cans in the morning and add beef… 10 hours later dinner will be served!
• first official meeting with my new group at work!  {new jobs are pretty cool!  will be ready to give this old one away soon… cause doing 2 jobs, and getting paid for one, is less cool}
• finishing the hunger games!  {like 10 chapters left in book #3}
• 5 ingredient girl's dinner thursday!
• waking up tomorrow to a functional iPhone {a girl can dream right?}

g'night y'all
