Tired Lessa."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Busy busy!<\/p>\n<p>Friday morning &#8211; 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&#8217;d practiced my presentation ALL MORNING! I was so disappointed &#8211; 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\u00a0 positive, Lessa! *flex*<\/p>\n<p>Friday night, cinqo de mayo! So I wasn&#8217;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&#8217;ve known for years, and scored another meeting coming up this week. Whooo!<\/p>\n<p>So &#8211; feeling like I was on a roll, we went and mooched dinner off mum and dad. Heh. At Rosita&#8217;s, the local mexican restaurant. Ok &#8211; 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&#8217;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&#8221;Dude &#8211; i KNOW you&#8217;re trying to get my attention and all&#8230;&#8221; and he grinned and nudged me &#8220;Rosita&#8217;s &#8211; where you can &#8220;get forked&#8221;!&#8221; at which time I BUSTED up laughing, as did mum n dad too &#8211; Brilliant! *g*<\/p>\n<p>The pup &#8211; 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.\u00a0 She ever tells me it&#8217;s gross again and I&#8217;ma beat her. *L*<\/p>\n<p>So then! It was Miss A&#8217;s mom n dad&#8217;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 &#8211; 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&#8230; oh&#8230; 2:00 am.<\/p>\n<p>The alarm went off at 4am.<br \/>\nAt 4:01am, I decided I really didn&#8217;t NEED a shower, and went back to sleep.<br \/>\nAt 4:20am &#8211; Papa called and woke me up, and we were on our way a scant 10 minutes later. heh.<\/p>\n<p>Where? Oh &#8211; 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&#8217;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&#8217;s hitting ANOTHER growth spurt! or it&#8217;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&#8217;t exhausted. poor Papa was WHUPPED.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;m bright eyed once again. Hee!<\/p>\n<p>How was YOUR weekend? *g*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Busy busy!
