Nothing Exciting

I'm totally enjoying this beautiful weather and remain in denial that we are yet again expecting snow this weekend!  Today, with the warm spring-y type weather I was reminded of growing up in Milwaukee.  I'm so wierd when I remember or think of things by smell.  When I got home today my neighbor was out in the lot smoking and smelled of beer.  I was listening to country music on the radio just as I pulled in.  What was the first thing cigarettes, beer and country music reminded me of?  SUMMERFEST!  Funny how the mind/sensory smell work to remind you of things?  Two totally disgusting scents and they bring back a good memory!?!?  Maybe I need therapy. 

I received another postcard from postcrossing today.  Today's came from Germany.  I think I'm going to hide it because the kid hasn't received a postcard yet and she is starting to say "it's not fair." She doesn't quite understand the concept of the time it takes or that you write one, you get one.   I feel bad.  I was thinking that if another one came, I could just give it to her and tell her it was for her...but this time they wrote my name on it.  Hmmm.  Two of mine are still travelling now, going on 19 days.  So really, are they travelling or has someone not registered them?  They are going to China and Finland.  The reason I question it is because the kid sent one to Finland and it arrived in 6 days.  What is going on???

Work has gone more smoothly over the past two days.  Glad I got over that bump in the road, but that's not to say I've recovered.  I'm still sour when I think about it.  I'm emotional, what can I say?  But the good news is that my boss has picked me to train three new people.  It kind of cracks me up because I'm still relatively new myself...the problem is is that I'm the most organized in the group.  I got picked because, "You have your shit together."  I suppose it will be good for me career-wise.  I'm not complaining, I just find it interesting.  Fingers crossed it goes well and I can "get my shit together" by coming up with some training materials.  (Did I mention that I have to create them?)

I'm on day 3 of going to the gym.  Yesterday I worked from home, so instead I walked 1.75 miles during my lunch break and then the kid and I rode bikes after school for 45 minutes.  I don't think I've lost any weight but I'm trying to convince myself I feel sexier.  Ha, ha, ha!

Today I am grateful for my daughter, grilled turkey burgers loaded with pickles, and the warm weather.
