Finish out January

Now that I'm nearing the middle of February I feel it is best I catch up on the remaining happs of January.

...talking- yes I'm pretty good at that. Public speaking?! Not so much, though I had the "great opportunity" (as many proclaim) to give a talk. I usually don't mind giving talks, but this was the first time that I've had to do this in years! No worries though, it all turned out well- thank goodness. I ended my talk with my favorite take home message- "The $20 Dollar Bill"

...work- yes I have my moments- we all have moments when we doubt what we do. I was feeling discouraged about work and was very confused. We recently had a "team member" leave our office. Since then, we have all pulled together. Even though we are more busy and have more "work" to do and catch up on, we're all happier and more relaxed. Sometimes things just happen for a reason, this time it was for the better.

...driving- yes I like to drive, though no I don't like driving alone. SLO is like another "home" it's a mix of a vacation spot and another place I'm absolutely comfortable in. I went to SLO for the weekend and had a blast. I didn't realize that one of my friends who had graduated last year was going to be down there the same weekend. FUN! I didn't do too much while there, though I did make my traditional homemade cinnamon rolls- which were a success, got orange cranberry scones from The Apple Farm, did a quick Costco run, made dinner, went out to dinner, watched a movie, and shopped. (notice how most of the things I did was related to food? that's why I consider it a vay-cay-- I always eat way too much on vay-cay!)

Well, that finishes up my January, now for my next post, catch up on February since we're almost half done!!!!
