Monday Monday  

Posted by brookeaprilrain

It's Monday! HOORAY! Oh Wait, that's the beginning of the week. CRAP! oh well, that's okay it's almost over so I'm happy.

We moved offices at work today, so I sit in a quieter room. it's different, but nice because I don't have to worry about people looking over my shoulder.

Also, the latest is, I'm cleaning my room! I know shocker, but it's more than that. I'm downsizing so my friend Jenny can move in. So, I took time off at work (I have TONS of PTO). So, I have like 5 days of this coming weekend, and it's really only going to take me 2 or 3 days to do everything I plan to do. I'm going to ask my landlord to let me paint the room. Keep your fingers crossed, because I'm not sure how they will react to that. I want to do colors that match the following bedroom set.



I love this Comforter Set, it's called the Plaza 7-piece Bedding Ensemble. It's available on Overstock. I' seriously in LOVE with this...It's over $100 cause it's 7 pieces, but man I so want it. I get 5% off of my order, but then I pay tax so, it's almost like I'm getting the tax waived.

Anyways, So, that's about it for me, just want to go home and take a nap. This headache is killing me.

So, since that’s not your actual gift, even though it would be way fun if it were true. I thought I would give you something WAY more realistic such as.

Monday's  

Posted by brookeaprilrain

So, it's Monday. Hooray! I mean BOO!!! Who actually enjoys Mondays? If you say you're one of them. Well, I might make fun of you, cause that's just pure lunacy.

So, I have this dilemma at work, I go outside sometimes with my boss and my other co-worker cause they smoke and I just stand out there (down wind) and talk to them. Well, it's been perceived that I'm a smoker now (I'm Not). My job is important to me, so I would hate for people to think that I'm a smoker, but I enjoy the conversations I get to have with my boss. We don't get to talk like that when we're at our desks, so it's nice. However, I'm not sure if I should think it's important or not what others at work think of me. So, now...I'm not sure what to do. Should I stop going outside so others at work don't think I'm a smoker? Or should I continue to go outside (have some good conversations) with my boss and say to heck with everyone else? I'm not sure, let me know what you think?

FRIDAY!!!!!  

Posted by brookeaprilrain



So, today is Friday, and it's the 40th Anniversary of Woodstock. A holiday to my company as you can see in the above picture. I'm amazed that they considered it a dress up day, and worth it for me to come into work today. Anyways, things are good I'm supposed to go camping tonight with my ward, but it's been raining so we may have to actually cancel. Dang it! Oh well...

Mushy Stuff  

Posted by brookeaprilrain

SO, I was cheesy one day and decided to watch the Hannah Montana: Movie. I wasn't expecting much from it, but I thought this scene was really sweet, and the song was even more sweet.



I may not have always had an extremely close relationship with my Dad, but this song kind of explains how much I love my Daddy!

Anyways, hope you enjoy.
