I'd like to report that after my completely inconsequential meltdown yesterday and a few hours of sleep, I am feeling better today. I'm still not getting my phone, but I feel like I am coming to peace with it. Maybe. I haven't been up too long so only time will tell!

Congratulations! Thanks to everyone who entered!
Working from home is...well...it's going. Actually, I have managed to get in quite a few hours this week already, which is great considering there was a holiday and I'm off on Friday. I have enough hours that I shouldn't have to use any PTO. Kris and I are gearing up for a 3 day excursion to Gatlinburg, TN. Our 11th wedding anniversary is coming up, on Saturday to be precise. I'm not 100% thrilled about the 9 hour drive each way, except that it will be kid-free (thanks Grandma for babysitting!!) and Kris and I have Ted Dekker's newest, The Bride Collector, to listen to.
So far, it's pretty good. Dekker's main character (or the bad guy at least) is really creepy! In true Dekker fashion.
I'm also joining Welcome Wednesday again. Feel free to link up and find some great blogs!
A three hour drive can be fun if you're creative... If you have the tim, take some groceries with you and stop for a picnic somewhere. You might try taking the devotional I started called Songs In The Key Of Solomon. I wrote a post about it on my blog. It's not your typical devo, I can tell you. If my husband whom isn't saved can enjoy it, you guys should get a kick out of it, too.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't stress about the phone. I'd take a trip with my husband (and without kids!) over the latest gadget any day! Have fun!
I hope you have a great trip! We did 16 hours non stop once. It was pretty terrible, LOL.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful anniversary!
Happy anniversary! I'm here from Welcome Wednesday and looking fwd to reading more :)
