tootin' my own horn =)

This week has been full of accomplishments.
I must share.
Although they are all small, I felt proud.

A couple of weeks ago I posted "my new start". I had simple tasks that I thought would help me feel happy in '09. It is working. I haven't done all of them, but I'm working on it.

One of the sentences said "Drive like I'm not in a hurry, and wave at the missionaries more." When I was grocery shopping the other day I decided to not only say "hi" to the missionaries...I said "Can I have a picture with you, and your groceries?" I felt a boost of energy, and it made my afternoon.
As far as the driving like I'm not in a hurry...I GOT PULLED OVER LAST NIGHT for speeding! LOL! It was the first time EVER, and I was ecstatic. Paul was hoping for me to get a ticket, but the officer was a dork. I totally breezed my way through it, and was laughing about it during and after. I can't believe I'm goin' be 28, and this was my 1st time. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

I have definitely taken more time for Paul and Savannah. I have stopped to notice that my baby is growing up. Just this morning she put on her jacket, and has taught herself to zip it up...all by herself. Where was I when this started? I was impressed.

My girls and I @ the RCW successfully planned a Chinese New Year party(which was a hit). I have started to appreciate my friends at work more. I can be random. I can be a dork, and they laugh with me. See below picture for some explanation... Yes, those are chop sticks in my hair! Oh, and don't ask about the face. I am still freakin' laughing about it.

I have enjoyed the sun, because it's been out. I have been staying up late, but not waking up early. ;) I haven't made my bed once...okay, okay so I said I was still working on some of them.

Stay tuned...hot date tomorrow with the hubby! Oh, and I get to see my BFF.

How funny! You made the start of my day a good laugh!
How do we miss those little stepping stones? Brett some how figured out how to zip up on his own too. Crazy.
Have you ever had the missionaries over for dinner? You should... so should I it's been a while. It really can be fun.
