John, Sheryl & Mariah

This weekend has been a whirlwind of fun and music!

I started out Friday night at the Sheryl Crow and John Mayer concert. It was super fun. I didn't know much of John's stuff, but I can now say I'm a fan. Plus he's hot and stuff. And Sheryl is Sheryl. Cute and happy and feelin' good.

And as if that wasn't enough concert fun for one weekend, Saturday night I was at the Mariah Carey concert. The best part was her doing old and new stuff, Hero and We Belong Together kinda stuff. Good times.

So after two concerts in one weekend, I'm kinda tired. Laundry, groceries and chilling out is all that's in the cards for today.

Get 'er done!

Holy crap, was I ever productive today!

-cleaned my bedroom and moved my bed to a different spot (really opened things up)
-went to Costco and picked up some blank CDs, gum, Advil and peanut butter (my new Costco theory is to not get a cart. if I only buy what I can carry, then I can't go overboard!)
-went to IKEA and got a small table for my balcony, an ice cream scoop, a veggie peeler, plastic tongs and this, except it's black with silver knobs
-went to Reitman's and got 2 skirts on sale, one denim and the other brown corduroy. both are long and very cute
-stopped by Save On and got some groceries
-filled up Stella with really cheap gas, in the mid-nineties! it only cost $42 to fill up and I was nearly empty too
-did 2 loads of laundry

See? I told you I was super productive today!

Tomorrow? Terry Fox Run (well I'll be walking it, it IS 10K) and some chilling out time.

UPDATE: I finished walking the 10K Terry Fox run in 1:44:34. Not bad time for someone with short legs and who is kinda out of shape! It was fitting that it rained most of the time considering Terry ran in that and much worse. We saw a man running with a baby stroller. It warmed my heart when I saw his prosthetic leg. There are some great people in the world.

Here comes the rain!

You'll probably this that this is quite amusing...however, I missed the rain. Yes, in a location where it can rain every day for a month, I missed it.

The first big rain on the season showed up tonight. And it was a good one. Poured down for a good 10 minutes. Ahh, nothing like the sound of a good rain!

Too bad it's stopped, or I could have fallen asleep to the pouring rain.

A little of this, a little of that and a whole lot of nothing

Ok, so I haven't had much goin' on lately and so I haven't posted anything.

But I remembered that I've posted quite a bit of pointless stuff in the past, so why not now?

Well this weekend I've felt like a cold is coming on, so I've been spending a lot of time on the couch relaxing and drinking lots of juice. I watched Maid in Manhatten and 13 Going on 30 last night. Such silly feel-good movies. I also went a little old school and sent out some postcards and letters. Actually 8 of them! So you just might be a lucky one and receive some mail at the end of the week. How exciting!

And in other news I bought a small indoor grill a few weeks ago. It's the best thing ever! M'mm grilled veggies!

And that's pretty much it. Nothing too exciting at all.

Later kids!

Welcome to the world, Keenan!

Congrats go out to my cousin Sherri, and her husband Chris, on the safe arrival of their first child.

Their son Keenan arrived this morning, bright and early at 6:15am (9:15am EST), weighing 8 lbs, 10 ozs.

Can't wait to meet you!

UPDATE:

Here's a pic of the lil' guy!

I got my hair did!

So here's me before (this is in case you've forgotten what I look like!)



This is at the softball end-of-year awards thingy.

And here is me today!



Yep, I'm now a red-head!! I feel all sassy and stuff. Woo hoo!
