Bonus!

I sat next to this guy on the plane on the way from Odessa to Dallas. He lives in Odessa. He comes to Dallas a lot for work and I will be going to Odessa a lot for work. We're going to be each other's drinking buddies. I have a "date" with him in two weeks and he is going to take me to the fun places in Odessa and then I will do the same when he comes to Dallas. Yay! A new friend to hang out with. He's a bit older than me, and his kids are older than mine, but we hit it off really well on the plane. I tend to be drawn to older people, anyway, since they are usually more capable of engaging in platonic friendships than the younger ones. Now I won't mind going to Odessa!!!

My dear, sweet prince charming was so awesome last night! I love clean sheet night and I was so tired yesterday from this crazy travel schedule I've had so he put clean sheets on the bed, had a glass of wine for me when I got home and gently rubbed my back, neck and shoulders in bed until I fell asleep. He's sooo amazing. What a wonderful life I have.

It's going to be another crazy day at work so I am going to get after it. One more day 'til the weekend!!! I have every intention of working a little extra today and cutting out at noon tomorrow. I need a long weekend.

I uploaded a new "after" picture this morning. My Mom's boyfriend took it about a month ago when they were here. It was originally a picture of my Mom and I in front of my majestic palm in the family room.
