Thursday = Holiday

Thursday is a holiday in Hong Kong so as luck would have it.. Chris gets to come home a day early!!! I can't wait!!! Now he may have to go back next week for a few days, but hopefully it will be a long while before we do another two weeks apart!!!

Salute our troops parade and Spring Fest

So Saturday Nora and I went to the salute our troops parade and events in downtown Raleigh. It was a great parade and lots of fun! We then headed to Sonic for lunch and went to the Cary SpringFest arts and crafts show. All I am going to say about that is HOT!!! It was the warmest day thus far this year... and I now have the rockin' farmers tan going on!!! Woohoo!!!

More soon ~

Monday blues ~

Well here it is.. day two and I am doing okay! Day 1 went by pretty quick with church with the parents followed by breakfast with them and then some quality time at their house...it continued that evening with dinner with our old next door neighbors from Four Oaks. That was fun and I fell into bed from shear exhaustion!!!
Day two - well its a Monday but overall work kept me busy today and that was a good thing. I went by the store, cooked dinner and now am baking cookies for Jim. Hopefully I can get it all baked tonight and send out his next box tomorrow...

CRAZY Saturday ~

It has been a completely crazy day...
Left the house at 8:10am for a 9am soccer game, then on to tball scrimage (kids against the parents) then the boys had a bday party for the boy next door at Jelly Beans. Left there and took Chris to the airport to see him off for his trip to Hong Kong. It was sad, but I did okay.....
He has called a few times since then... about 10... but I miss him already.

Helping others ~

Gave blood today at the Cary location for the Red Cross....my little way of giving back... without all those 'givers' out there, my mother would probably not be alive today.... so my hat's off to them and hopefully my blood can help someone else's mom..... <3
