Whew. Tired Lessa.

Busy busy!

Friday morning – no nap for lessa! Nope, had to conduct an interview, and thus I had to shower and look kinda presentable. So did so, and then sat at Kaladi Brothers coffee, and got stood up! HARUMPH! And I’d practiced my presentation ALL MORNING! I was so disappointed – until I started chatting with someone with a beaYOOtiful puppy dog, and ended up interviewing her, as well as getting her promise to come to a meeting on Tuesday and bring her friend. Tada! way to turn a negative into a  positive, Lessa! *flex*

Friday night, cinqo de mayo! So I wasn’t gonna participate and really had no intention of leaving my house really, but it was also the annual School Carnival for the pup, therefore, she insisted that I go. dammit. SO MANY PEOPLE in SUCH a tiny space. So I found a central location, gave the kids their tickets, and let them come find me when they were out. Worked out well, and I got to chat with some people I’ve known for years, and scored another meeting coming up this week. Whooo!

So – feeling like I was on a roll, we went and mooched dinner off mum and dad. Heh. At Rosita’s, the local mexican restaurant. Ok – I had EVERY INTENTION of paying. Still do. *grin* It was NUUUUMMY! And! the cute waiter/busboy was having a grand ole time (I still think he had a maguarita in the back he was sipping on. *L) and the pup won a t-shirt and the kids won maguarita’s (they can have virgin, or give em to mom. heh.) and the waiter/busboy dropped some silverware and hit my shoulder. I was all”Dude – i KNOW you’re trying to get my attention and all…” and he grinned and nudged me “Rosita’s – where you can “get forked”!” at which time I BUSTED up laughing, as did mum n dad too – Brilliant! *g*

The pup – who I cannot get to TOUCH mexican food, was all about the salsa, the enchiladas, the redsauce, the beans, the rice! The child who I cannot FORCE salsa down, cleaned out TWO BOWLS of it! omfg.  She ever tells me it’s gross again and I’ma beat her. *L*

So then! It was Miss A’s mom n dad’s anniversary last night, and they were having aparty out at a bar, so Dad and I hopped into the van and went out there for a while to say congrats and chat with some people and stuff. Then – it was getting dark and he drove and we had to be up early early, so we came home and got papa into bed by 10:30. Me? Not so easy. I tossed n turned and finally got to sleep at about… oh… 2:00 am.

The alarm went off at 4am.
At 4:01am, I decided I really didn’t NEED a shower, and went back to sleep.
At 4:20am – Papa called and woke me up, and we were on our way a scant 10 minutes later. heh.

Where? Oh – we had a training session in Anchorage that had a special speaker. Nana Moosie was nice enough to let me go and watched my girls for me, so I wouldn’t worry while I was gone and we went on up to Anchorage for a whirlwind morning of meetings, and then had a leisurely lunch, picked up a friend, and headed right back home again. We got here bout dinner time (Where the pup ate a ton AGAIN! methinks she’s hitting ANOTHER growth spurt! or it’s a tapeworm. hahaha!) and boy was WE tired. Course, I curled up and slept on the way home in the back of the van, so while I was stiff and sore, I wasn’t exhausted. poor Papa was WHUPPED.

I did end up in bed at an horribly early hour for me, collapsing by 10:30, and sleeping clean through until Nana Moosie called to see if the pup was going to church this morning. Another quick nap after the pup had left, and i’m bright eyed once again. Hee!

How was YOUR weekend? *g*
