so, that was the bestest news of today. i went to bed around 11 last night, and after some interesting dreams which i don't remember anything of other than they were interesting, i got up at 6:30 & left the house at 7. my plan was to get to work at 7:30. funny how plans go awry sometimes... i couldn't get up my hill. so i backed up, turned around, and went around the corner to the next street up. couldn't get up that hill, either. grrrr! made it ALMOST to the top, then started sliding back & couldn't go up any more. so i had to back alllll the way down the hill. am very happy i didn't go into a ditch! by the time i was even out of my neighborhood, 7:30 was gone, but 8 was the goal.
then i spent 1/2 an hour trying to GET to the bridge! traffic was awful. thankfully i had Glee to keep me company. singing along with Kurt is my favorite. : ) and i got to work at 8:30. oye! it was a busy day, but not insane. i was able to work on stuff w/o a lot of phone/email interruption.
after work, i went to hy vee to get some snacks for tomorrow's super bowl party at work. i was going to bring popcorn indiana popcorn, but then marty said she was going to make popcorn, so i just got chex mix. plus, apparently hy vee doesn't carry this brand? i didn't see it anyway... i also got yummy hy vee pizza for dinner. love it, so tasty!!
when i got home, i couldn't get into my parking spot, so bret kindly came out & shoveled more of a path. honestly, seeing how small a hole was there, i'm not quite sure how i got OUT this morning! lol
i have some pictures, but i'll have to upload them tomorrow. i'm too tired to deal w/ it today! *laugh* am happy tomorrow is friday & that the weekend will soon be here - even if the weekend is to be busy! going to hang out w/ erin tomorrow night & then leyton & anthony will be at mom's saturday night, so i think i'll hang out there for awhile. fun fun!
have a great night & ttfn! : )
