I hate Mondays, but LOVE HAYLEY!!!

I had one of the best weekends ever. I got to spend the entire thing with Hayley, and even the last hour of church was combined so we got to be together for that! We had a Wii night at home, went to the baptism of a friend of mine, had a two hour massage, saw a movie at matinee price, went to a Chicago-style pizza place (and kept it pretty cheap), went to the mountains, and I just enjoyed Hayley’s company the whole time. I love weekends.

After weekends, Mondays really suck. This Monday morning was worse than usual because of how great the weekend was. And even MORE so because I’m forced to be a vegetarian today; but Hayley had a worse morning than me, and didn’t sleep well last night. On top of not sleeping well and having an aching back, I forgot part of our lunches, she forgot her water bottle, etc., and I just wish we could go back to sleep and try Monday all over again—or skip it entirely. Because we can’t, I want to try to make Monday a little better.

Hayley, I love you so much. You are my favorite person in the whole world. You’re a beautiful woman and I’m so lucky to have you in my life! You’re smart, funny, quick-witted, and I love talking to you and spending time with you. I know it was a rough morning, but think of all the good things we’ve done through this last week with budgeting, weight management, house cleaning, etc. All the hard work is showing results, or will soon! Just little by little. And when this day is over, I will get to see you tonight, and we can say goodbye forever to this day and move on through the week, which will undoubtedly be better than today. Love you. Hope this helps cheer you up and make your day a little brighter!

Been busy...

Remember how my last post is about my trip to Tucson? Yeah since then, I've been super busy, but I wanted to give a little update. Perhaps I'll try a bulleted list. Here's what I've been up to in no particular order.

• Worked on Tucson every day for two weeks.
• Worked on Tucson at home every day for two weeks.
• Met with all the VPs and department managers about Tucson for three days strait.
• Went to St. George for a weekend to relax from Tucson. The company condo is pretty awesome. So are Holly's kids.
  
• Sanded and painted our front door.
• Started watching a TV series about vampires... It's slightly intriguing.
  
• Re-committed to weight loss, budgeting, etc.

And there ya go. Not a super great post, but I'll post again another time, I promise. I'm still recharging my brain from the constant meetings and all day working. I'll give you something more interesting soon.

P.S. You can thank Hayley for her posts that might make mine a little more interesting. Follow the links for some photos and further description.

Mostly waiting to go home...

I'm in Tucson today. For work. This is the second business trip I've ever been on. If it had happened a year or so ago, I might be more excited, but right now, I mostly want to go home.

I didn't sleep well, and got up early. I had a pretty nice breakfast, and I think it will hold me over until this evening, but I would have rather prepared a smoothie and two bowls of Cheerios. I am just waiting in my room for an hour to pass so we can go to the stinkin' meeting, then strait to the airport! It will be a good meeting and I'll get lotsa stuff done for the huge project I'll be working on for the next couple weeks, but I'd still rather be home. Miss you, Hayley. Love you. See you soon!!
