I hate Sundays.

I think the worst part of taking a long weekend or vacation is going back to work. It almost makes work worse when you go away for a while. That’s why I usually hate Sundays. It often means thinking about the laundry list of things I have to do on Monday, sending Jes off to Charlotte, and making sure I go to sleep at a reasonable time. Yesterday was no different, except I had to fly all of Sunday afternoon/evening to come home to my doggie and a messy house. I need one more day.

It’s a Wonderful Life

Some of my joys in life are so simple. I’m at home eating my oatmeal and having a cup of coffee with Jes at my right and my dog at my feet. It’s sprinkling outside, I’m in my PJs at noon, and Air is playing in the background. Life is pretty sweet sometimes.

Here, have some germs!

I was sick as a dog over the weekend. I tried to go to work on Friday but had to go home by 10:00 am. It was fun passing my germies to those who came in contact with me those 2 hours though. Haha. Anyway, I stayed home most of the weekend, ate a lot of chicken soup, and watched “Mean Girls”. I also went to Home Depot to buy new plants/flowers for the patio to replace the ones that Koa dug up the other day…what an exciting life I lead. Jes and I took Koa to the dog park and bumped into Gavin and his dog, Maizie. We also met another “Koa”…he was an American Eskimo. Jes didn’t have to fly out until Monday morning so we had a little BBQ with Jay and Nikki just like old times. I sure miss those days. Watched the first game of the World Series and had fish tacos…yum.

All in!

I was sick on Friday but worked from home. Crazy heart medicine is making me lightheaded again. I also learned how to play poker as I wrote my reports. Haha. On Saturday, we had the family over for a BBQ and Texas Hold’em. Pish and Deb brought their tabletop and we opened our poker chip set from Costco. I got kicked out of the game early but Jes won the pot! Sweet. We also had our first rain of the season on Sunday. The wormies came out again and Koa looked confused.

Bye…again.

Had dinner and drinks with Huy on Saturday and ended up sleeping in Cerritos. Jes left on Sunday so it’s just me and the pup again.
