Ordinarily, I don't post on Mondays because I'm usually bitter the weekend is over, but I'm feeling pretty good today. :)
This past weekend, Bella and I rolled into town Saturday (afternoon) for my sister's bridal shower. It was a lovely afternoon (the food/cupcakes were delish!) and I won the door prize! They set an egg timer and if it went off when Paige was opening your gift you got the prize. It was a bag of coffee (I gave that to my dad), some tea tins (I'll give 'em a shot-not usually a fan of tea) and some glass latte mugs (those are in my dishwasher now). There were some women that Paige cheered with in middle & high school that I hadn't seen in easily, 10 years or so. Apparently, I've grown since they saw me last. ;) It was nice.
Bella stayed home with my dad. We looped her to a tree with a chain & a 25' cable. She didn't like it much..she whimpered and barked a lot. It made me sad, but she likes to wander and when my dad's on the other side of the house painting, that can't happen..especially now that the Wards got a new fluffy puppy (looks like a cotton ball). I think B scared the poo out of her a couple times with her big girl bark. :) I think her Christmas present will be (if I can find an inexpensive one), a remote controlled zap collar so she can learn to stay in the yard. Otherwise, she'll need to stay leashed or inside, in her crate. :/
I had my date Saturday night when I got back into Charlotte. It was..okay. I think he is a great guy and I really like his personality. I don't want to be shallow or vain, because he is cute, but..he's a big guy. Not fat, just big. I've never been attracted to a linebacker...I couldn't even wrap my arms around him to hug him. I don't know. I am planning on making a day trip up to Boone at some point this weekend to see if it's really an issue or if I'm just being me. Ho-hum.......
Yesterday, I spent the afternoon on the couch since the house was clean and my laundry was done. I was in and out of naps, as was B. It was lovely. :)
This week: I have our first Artitudes event at the Mint on Randolph (a follow-up to Charlotte's Fashion Week) Wednesday evening. Thursday evening, I have our Planning & Zoning Board meeting. I have two rezonings going before the Board, and it's my first meeting in over a year! Friday's pay day (yay!) and the first Mint After 5 and the MMC+D rooftop. It'll be my first one too..I'm excited. :)
Sports recap: UNC barely beat UConn (due to an obscure safety rule), State blew Murray State out of the water (but let's be honest..they should've won that game anyways), ECU lost to WVa by 20 pts. Not a good showing for our second game, but after we spanked the Mountaineers last season, I knew they'd be ready. This week, ECU meets the Tarholes. They're 2-0, we're 1-1. We'll see. ...
Hope everyone has a great week.
