Sunday of Bliss!

Today has DEFINITELY been a Sunday of BLISS!! I knew when I woke up after sleeping in, next to my best friend, which I am blessed to be able to do every morning, that today was going to be a FABULOUS day!!!

While waiting for my sweetie to wake up, I got busy finishing the  book, The Lost Symbol, which I did. That book was very interesting – probably Dan Brown’s most controversial book to date. Nothing I have ever read of his have ever caused me to change my beliefs, and of course his books are works of fiction, but Dan Brown writes in such a way that you are forced to think about what your reality and what you believe.

By the time I finished reading, my sweetie was also awake, and was too reading the same book himself. Next, we headed to the office, so that I could do some crafting, and Jason started looking for pictures for his vision board. Apparently the success that my sis and I had last week in creating our own vision board has inspired my sweetie to create a vision board of his own! That makes me EXTREMELY happy!!! I think visualizing your future is a very healthy thing, and ESSENTIAL to making your dreams come true!!!

Jason made us a delicious Italian dinner this evening, and he is TOTALLY in his ZONE cooking, baking and trying out new recipes!! I really LOVE that man!!! 😉

Right now, I am watching a documentary about dreams, as in sleeping and dreams. Apparently 2 Nobel Prizes, and countless medical breakthroughs have come from things that people dreamed about while sleeping. It is rather fascinating! I didn’t realize that when you are in the stages of REM sleep, all of your muscles are absolutely relaxed, almost putting your body in something like a paralytic state, I never knew that! This documentary has inspired me to put a journal next to my bed so I can start writing my dreams down.

As for what is to come this week, I know I am going to be really busy this week at work. My co-worker and I are facing the 11th hour right before a very large 2 week go-live right now, and we have A LOT OF WORK TO DO BEFORE next Monday, which is the big go-live day!!! and I just remembered that I have a meeting tomorrow morning at 7:30 am, so I had better make sure I get to bed early tonight!!! 😉

As for now, I am going to spend the rest of my evening spending time with my sweetie and continuing on with my Sunday of bliss!!

Have a FABULOUS evening! 😉

Wednesday Update!

Good morning!

I have been up for a while now, and I am feeling very GO-GO-GO this morning!! I have company tonight, tomorrow, and then I am off to Roseburg to help my little sisters at their Christmas Bazarre, which should be fun!! WHEW!!

My Little sister had asked me to create a Mickey Mouse chain necklace for a friend of hers, and it has caused me to get all of my jewelry making things out, which has been adventurous!! LOL!! But try as I might, what I had was not working! SO, my sweetie and I went to the craft store last night to go pick up the materials for soldering – I thought this would work so much better, and my sweetie convinced me that I could get everything I needed from the hardware store much cheaper, so off we went. We picked up everything I thought we would need, and went home to give it a try. Let me tell you, I am NOT SURE WHAT I WAS THINKING!!! This is not working! I will have to see if I can create some kind of miracle or else tell my sis, “It ain’t gonna happen!” BUMMER!!

My co-!worker and I put up Christmas garland, our tree, lights, mini stockings and ornaments in our office yesterday It is is soooooo FESTIVE looking, I am LOVING IT!!! I am sooooo ready for the Holidays!!! BRING IT ON!!!! 😉 HMMM…I will have to stop and think about what should be on my Santa Baby list this year!!! 😉

Anyway, my computer seems to be wanting to be giving me problems this morning, so I am going to keep this short!!! Besides, I have got a lot of work yet to do before I head off to the office!!! YEAH!!! 😉

Have a FABULOUS morning!!
