A Birthday, Taxes, & Me Time

Well - today's officially Day 1 of my week off - and I've already kicked-ass in the "getting things done" department. And yes, I really am going to try and blog every day of my break - so here goes!

1. Slept in til about 8am - slowly showered and got dressed, ran some errands (including copying and picking up photos for a scrapbook I'm working on), got coffees for me & Jaime, then headed over to Alice's house.

2. Watched Alice while Vanhtha did his taxes and Jaime ran into work. Then I took my turn and got my taxes filed after Jaime got back home.

3. Joined friend Andrea at Lifetime Fitness - to begin a week of free trial - but signed up anyway - cuz I knew I was going to anyway. We just did some time on the treadmill - but HEY - it's 20 more minutes of activity than I normally would have done!

4. Went tanning.

5. Joined Vanhtha and friend Bridget at Macaroni Grill for steak dinner to celebrate V's birthday!! Happy Birthday!! Here's a photo of V and Bridget as the singing waiter surprises the birthday boy with chocolate cake and a serenade!



6. FOUND! and purchased a Nike swimsuit - as aforementioned friend Andrea is totally into the Aqua class at Lifetime - so was VERY needed - and hey - the last swimsuit I purchased was 3 years ago - so - I've justified it! :)

7. And now I'm home - thinking of doing a load of laundry - but maybe not. . the couch is calling . . the frozen yogurt and raspberries I got yesterday are also calling. . . so we'll see! I could totally just crash tho too! :) . . Dontcha just LOVE vacation!?!?!
