I’m having a little trouble keeping up. What day is it again?? Oh yea, Monday. See right now all the days are kinda blending together. Our big party at work is just 10 days away and I’ve been working around the clock on various things, mostly giant banners that are going to the printers soon … like tomorrow. These banners are 10′ x 3′ and so just doing the designing of them on my computer is err … kind of excruciating. Saving takes MINUTES. Half of the normal operations I’d do for texture or whatever, I can’t. It’s a new experience for me and while I’m sure I’m learning a lot, it’s on the frustrating side.
But I did take some time off this weekend to do the normal things like laundry and swim lessons and grocery shopping. We also spent a couple of hours (at two different times) going over the piece of land we’re interested in buying. My sister and I took my mom to an amazing restaurant to celebrate her birthday and we went to a graduation party for my cousin.
Saturday we even snuck away for a little while to go for a great run on N Table Mesa … a 5 mile jaunt that starts out by going straaaight up. It was super hot on Saturday and there is practically no tree cover there. I ran out of water like 2 miles in. But the views were incredible and as usual I felt great (ish) after the run. I chugged a whole (GIANT) Gatorade afterward. It was excellent.
But the week is here again. Everyone in the house has a cold and we are just trying to make it ’til Friday when we have our next camping trip to look forward to.
