Happy Halloween!

Today was Halloween at my work. 

Jeepers, I love my job. 

And...Canadian Princess Leia:

Wagons and Mondays

I have fallen off the Fitness Wagon the past few weeks. Fell off right into another pile of chips and wine. They find me everytime. 

But this morning I dusted the chips off and crawled back on. Thank you Keely,wouldn't  do it without your wake up texts! 

Starting a new position at work today. Sounds like a good day for getting back into the routine. Wish me luck! 

NEVER MISS A MONDAY!

You know what the world needs? A tampon drive through like the banks in Minot. 

Just shoot me them suckers in a tube so I dont have to go in. And throw in a bag of chips and some midol while you're at it. 

Wells Fargo Tampons. 

Get on it, people. 

And while you're at it....

Randa's Surprise Party

Randa turned 40. Her sisters planned a party and asked us to join in on the fun. 

Randa always goes to a lot of trouble to make elaborate home made cakes and super fun themes for her kid's birthdays. We wanted her to have that for herself. 

She really likes Frida Kahlo so a couple  of glue guns, silk flowers, some fondant and we had a theme! 

First mission: kidnap Randa and get her to Moose Jaw. This was actually super easy. Randa LOVES suprises and spontenaity - so followed my rule of no questions. 

Picking her up. 

Then we spent some time in Tuxford to throw her off course. 

So gangsta. 

Her sisters organized rooms at the spa and found a restaurant that would make a custom drink for our night: the Rowdy Randa! 

Allison made a super jeopardy game. That was a huge hit! 

And then, of course, came the dancing!  An 80s cover band was playing at the "pub" across the street! Everything was a short walk. What could be better? 

And then this happened after i left at midnight:

What a GREAT night!!

Happy Birthday, Randa!

My day

I am currently struggling with the fashion challenge of spending a morning playing on the floor with preschoolers and then at 1:00 teaching Residents about AAC. 

Bubble and ball tower fashion is going to have to win today. 

Also: will someone explain in Grey's season 1 terms what the hell a "resident" is???

Ahhhh. Gotta go. Running late. 

Sunday Perfection

The ingredients for a perfect Sunday morning:

1. Waking up sore from yesterday's workout

2. House is clean and sparkly

3. Its quiet

4. A good book and a cup of coffee

5. Sleepy beagles

This is one of my favorite moments. This is when I recharge. 

(Im squished on the teensy bit of couch left that Sammy doesnt "need")
