Day 1:

I got home @ 5:30 something A.M. from taking Ben to the airport. I don't know if he's landed in Calgary yet but I know he at least found his dad in O'hare and got on the plane! I'm soooo jealous!!! He's gonna have lots of fun, and in such a cool place. Not to mention that I'm really missing my family lately so I'd love to see them. When I got home I wrote a few emails, talked to Val whose recovering from surgery in Thailand for a bit and then went back to bed. I woke up late and Clyde's been nuts all morning!





(if you can't tell he's sitting on my SHOULDER) haha

chores of the day:
-shower
-do dishes
-pick up kitty litter
-start planning out photos
-find receipt so I can return stuff to Target/clean stuff so I can return it

... exciting. I know.

We'll see how this week goes. My friend Joi is staying in town so at least I'll have a few play dates! (Thank god!) The loneliness is already setting in. I don't think it's so much that I feel alone currently, but the fact that I know how long it's gonna be before I really see people again.


WHOA how is it already 4:00?! guess I should get running...

So i'm actually in "isolation" as of 5:30 am this morning. :( But I haven't had time to blog so here's what I've been up to.



SNOW. It's been snowinggggggg for days! We've only gotten about 17 inches but it's definitely had a few really heavy snow fall times. I have never experienced snow so wet in my life! My dry Colorado brain just can't understand it! Here's a little glimpse out my window during one of the brief periods of blue sky.



A little work out (heavy on abs and legs - my legs are still killing me haha) It's nice to have time to work out outside of classes :) did a bunch of stuff I learned this quarter in my Core, Glues & Abs class. The best part is that I watched a history channel documentary on Tesla the whole time I was working out!



This is Clyde's new favorite spot in the house. He climbs up the side of the mattress to get up there and runs around like a crazy. I know I should stop him but it's so funny!



My room smelled like cookies for some reason and I couldn't stand it so on a whim I made sugar cookies! They're really the perfect on-a-whim cookie because you can make it without anything special. Depending on the recipe they are made from the basic baking supplies you always have in our kitchen.



:D If they look good to you, you can find the recipe here. They're great cause they bake for 5-9 minutes so they're fast too!



Clyde always hoping for a bite...

So that was Friday. It was a good day.

Saturday consisted of sleeping, eating pancakes with jam for breakfast, watching the olympics, bagels toasted with pepper jack cheese, left over lasagna and getting a weeks worth of cuddling from Ben. (The olympic 4 man bobsled was AWESOME! GO USA!) And all that in time to get to bed early enough to take Ben to the airport at 5 am.

So. I did nothing today.


It was a lazy first day of break, Clyde and I just stayed in bed all day.





I have some photography, pet-sitting, and errand running plans for break. That and finding out my tolerance for spending time alone...

With EVERYTHING. :)

Happy Break.

I've officially lost it.
Welcome to week 10.

Came home from class to do some editing. Clyde seems to be enjoying the weather.




Just curled up on his favorite pillow watching it snow. I wish I could abandon my desk and come join him!

Today was a LONG day. I'm not even sure why. It just WAS.

Anywho:

First one mostly edited. Of course the internet has destroyed it's color... but still.

Thoughts?

SPRING BREAK PLANS?! WHERE ARE YOU?

I finally finished photographing my pig head. Editing is taking FOREVER. I will post some sneak peaks as soon as I can!

Reworked it.
Definitely better.

Still some bugs... we might have to get outside help.
