Monday morning I woke up at 8:30AM!! I’m supposed to be at work at 8:00AM…I quickly texted KK and told her I was going to be in ASAP. I quickly showered and got ready and arrived at work all in 45 minutes! It usually takes me 1 hour and 10 minutes but I made it in 45 minutes. I was impressed with myself.

But one thing happened this morning…. I decided to toast a bagel to grab and eat on the go. Well, when I sliced the bagel open… I literally sliced skin off my thumb! :(

Lesson learned: Never hurry in the kitchen!
Note to self: Buy more bandages for future boohoo’s.

My fortune cookie says: “Money and luck are favorable next month”… maybe we should buy a lottery ticket? ;)

The sunset from my parents’ backyard.

Lauren, my sister, slept over on Saturday. She wanted to know my “secret” with curling my hair so I did her hair. She actually kept me sane the whole weekend (normally she drives me insane!). Mostly because I’m the only girl living here and living with boys can be hard sometimes so it was good she was here this weekend.

I absolutely love Arizona’s sunsets! Sunday was calm and relaxing for once even though I should have gotten things done. It was nice to lounge around and do nothing for once. Melissa sent me a DVD of the indie tv show that my sister and I were in with her son, Zach. It was a DVD showing the production of the show and there’s one part where my mom and I are talking to Lou Ferrigno (the Hulk) and I looked so young and stupid with bangs! Haha. Thanks Melissa for sending that to us! We all enjoyed it and got a good laugh out of it.

Sunday night Tyler and I went with my family to a friend’s for a Birthday dinner. I absolutely love her house! It is in a gated community of only 10 houses and this house was nicely and beautifully decorated from top to bottom even for dinner with polka dots mugs for apple cider, chili for dinner, salad on beautiful Halloween plastic plates. I askd Tyler if we were going to have a beautiful home like that someday…and he said yes! I’m typing this now so I can show him later so he can’t say he didn’t say that! ;)
