    I'm actually currently doing exactly what I want to be doing. FI and I have a late start to our day on Tuesdays, so we're laying in bed and watching HGTV! The only thing that could be better is if I had some breakfast, haha. I'm starving, but too lazy to get up!

    I'm at work - my last day as a single girl and STRESSING!!!

    I am heading home to CT tomorrow to do the last minute prep until the wedding next week.  I am SURE I'm forgetting something!

    I wish I were home curled up with FI doing nothing (maybe with a glass of wine?)!

    And tonight I'll be packing (I'm a last minute packer) and hoping I don't forget anything important (FI can bring stuff when he flies over on Monday)...

    agh!

    Trying to crank out the rest of my work so that when we close I'll be ahead of everything and I can focus on working on the house!

    Focus break for my eyes at WB for a bit :-) Editing photos makes me go blurry after a while... which, is counter productive! lol

    I'm at work working on seating assignments for the 50th Gala we're having in a few weeks.  It's raining and in the high 40's so I wish I were home with my man and pups just getting things done around the house and/or chilling out.

    Can't wait til 5!!

    I wish I was at home getting my spring cleaning done! It's supposed to be 60 here today, about highest it's been since before winter. 

    I'm ready for C and I to just relax and watch LOST tonight.... I have been watching since the 2nd season..  It's like I'm losing a dear friend since this is the last season, lol.

    I am at work, tired like no other. I work 7-4 today, so super early. Cant stop yawning and my legs hurt from work out last night--and i wore heels today. I wish i had the day off because its supposed to be 75 degrees today and my fiance took the day off. But i just had a three day weekend, so i really shouldn't complain.

    Sitting here at work.  Trying to crank out some end of month stuff. 

    I wish I were out climbing.  It's in the 60s here and sunny, so it's perfect weather for route season!  I can't wait until Saturday when I'm actually able to get out on the rock. 

    I'm trying to figure out small easter gifts for my parents/boyfriend.  Is that okay even though we're not religious?  Hmmm.

    @miss biner, of course it's okay to do easter gifts! you should do lil easter baskets (get them cheap at the dollar store) and fill them with knick knacks in "easter colors"

    at work, wishing I was home with the hubs. Can't wait for 5, but its been going slow so I'm sure it will take ages for it to come. Can't believe its only Tuesday, too. So unfair!! Tonight will be homework and cooking dinner. School after work tomorrow and Thursday, and then hopefully going to the new house on Friday to check out the floors and seeing it almost completely done! Hopefully they will order the appraisal soon so we can get this show on the road. Another whole month til closing, shoot me now please. Although, I am glad cuz then that will mean only 2 more weeks left of school, then graduation and then FINALLY moving in to the house and getting my decorating on!!!

    Sorry, had to get it out Cool

    I'm on campus. I have a crazy long day of four classes on Tues/Thurs. Today is the first day of classes, though, so we got out of one early, and I'm waiting until my next class starts at 11:20. 

    I wish I was going for a run or a ride. Either would be amazing!

    I am sitting at home, eating an english muffin with PB and Jelly.  I am trying to get started on finishing up a paper that is due for school tonight, but I keep flipping between WB and Facebook.

    Of course, I'd rather the hubs be sitting here too!  But he is at work.

    Yup!  That's my beagle Lucy in rare moment of good behavior!  She is quite the terror, but very cuddly and attached to me.  She sits across from me at the table every day after Daddy goes to work.  I have video of her nodding off at the table while I read my textbook to her.  It is so funny!

    Getting ready for a grueling day of 4 conference calls that I'm leading. Not gonna lie...I'll probably have the 'bee in the background. I wish I was at home cranking out some of my DIY projects that are looming over my head!

    Tonight I'm grilling out with my FI and my boss. Should be a good time!

    Thanks missjyc!!  Is it okay to pre-make the cake part and freeze it today and then put it together and do icing on Sunday?

    I'll be running, doing a hang board workout, and hanging out with my boyfriend tonight.
