Well I am in the middle of busy season and that means getting up early, working into the night, and barely having time to get my laundry done, oh the life of an accountant. It took me two weeks to watch the Golden Globes! And if you know me, I normally have it watched and my best dressed list out the next day. All that being said I haven't had the time to blog. Until I have time to actually blog about something interesting I thought I would share with you all some things in my life that are currently making me a happy person during this time.
- Visits from dear friends: over the past month I have had some visits from two of my best friends. Holly came down for her birthday at the beginning of the month and Sarah came down last weekend to help us celebrate Casey's birthday. I miss these two friends so much and love when I get to see them.
-Phone calls from dear friends: I had a great phone call with my big sis in Kappa tonight. She lives in Denver and it was so great to hear her voice. I also had a great phone call with my friend Sarah from Ardmore where we are planning a trip to see Backstreet boys and New Kids on the Block....don't be jealous, we are REAL excited.
-My parents: A couple of weeks ago was my dad's birthday. I love my dad, he is such a simple man. Our birthday celebration included my mom driving my dad and I to dinner with us having some Bud Light Roadies....it was perfect. Mom's birthday is in a few weeks and I am sure we will do something equivalent for hers.
-My coworkers: Luckily, even though I work long hours I work with great people. We joke all day long and it makes the work that much more enjoyable.
-Awards season: Oscar season is in full swing, and I have really enjoyed all the movies this year! I have a couple more weeks to see as many of the films as possible and I still have a few left (it used to be so much easier when there were only 5 movies, now there are 10 so I have twice as many to try and see).
-The Bachelor (aka Brad Womack Round 2): I mean, what is there not to love....I have to say that Brad is a major tool who talks about his therapist a lot. But I still love the show and will always watch my favorite Chris Harrison say "Ladies, this is the final rose of the evening...." It doesn't get old to me.
-My Marathon Training Group: I have signed up to do the OKC Memorial Marathon May 1. That being said, I decided to join a running group to keep me motivated. The group meets on Saturday mornings and has been a lifesaver for me. Nevermind the fact that I am the youngest person in the group by at least 10 years, and also the only person in the group to never have run a marathon...... minor details! It is great to get to know people while you run. I have really enjoyed it.
-Snow Days: I had a snow day yesterday from work. It was glorious! However, it was different than a real snow day. I have never hated the invention of a laptop more. So instead of going into the office, I worked from home. But, it was quite glorious to stay in my pajamas all day and not have to get out in the ice! That made working 11+ hours much better.
Well guys, that is all I have for now. Have a great week and hopefully you will see me sometime in the near future!
