Winter Wednesday

1. Giant, fluffy, delicious snowflakes this morning. Like walking around in a snow globe.

2. I made up a song about getting coffee today ("I need a caffeinated bev-ER-rage" to a metalesque beat) and my coworker Jeff laughed his head off. That's really all I'm looking for in a coworker - someone to laugh with (at) me when I'm acting like a buffoon.

3. Lost 2.5 pounds this week. Tracking works. Sure does.

Back to it, weekend edition

So delinquent. But I had a weekend full of great things, so I was inspired to get back to it.

1. 9 hours of sleep on Friday night. If you know me, that's practically unheard of. So nice to wake up on a Saturday morning feeling refreshed and full of "piss and vinegar" as my mom would say.

2. Went XC skiing with Rachelle, Carolyn and Cat on Saturday afternoon. The sun was shining, making the snow sparkle all around us. Beautiful, beautiful day spent in the company of gals I adore. Life is good.

2.1 There were some ladies in the parking lot as we were setting off on our ski who had locked their keys in their car! Oh noes! My incredibly kind friend Cat lent them her van to go get their extra keys! She didn't think it was a big deal, but I don't know that many people would be that trusting/generous. When we got back from skiing, the van was there, with a full tank of gas and some delicious chocolate for us to enjoy on the trip home. Karma, people. It's for real.

3. After a day of playing in a volleyball tournament, came home and just relaxed for the evening. Didn't have to go anywhere. Didn't have to do anything. Bliss!
