We finally filed our 10-Q on Wednesday. Wow was that a long, crazy day. It was pretty horrible but we are done for
another quarter. We also finished our year end stuff on Wednesday too. So now I can look forward to vacation!! Speaking of vacation, I requested another
half day in May and my boss’ response was “Are you working any days in May?”
and then she chuckles. After the last 4
months at work, especially the last 3 weeks, I REALLY can’t wait for vacation.
Also on Wednesday, DJ and Beth visited on Wednesday. Abbie had attended a concert at the Varsity
Club in Dinkytown (near the U of M) and DJ was the chauffeur. Per Beth’s
request, we had Chinese for dinner.
Eric had his first soccer games of the season on Thursday. I meet Mom and her crazy sisters Bev, Grace and Alice at Mystic Lake for dinner. It was nice to see them all again. It has been ages since I’ve seen Alice. They didn’t win but they had fun. I had to run to band practice after that. Only 3 more rehearsals for the season and then it is the summer concerts.
Friday I went with Greg, Celeste and Evelyn to get our flowers
that we planted a few weeks back. They look nice but I thought they would look
better than they actually do. We also
went to Quizno’s for dinner. Yum, I love
Quiznos. That makes it official. I ate
out every night this week. I’m so bad!
Yesterday, Eric and I went to the Zoo. It was another gray and cloudy day with storms in the west but we managed to see the whole zoo before the rain set in. Nothing too exciting at the zoo, the animals were not as active as they were a couple weeks ago.
Today has been a cleaning and planting day. Eric went to the Avengers movie; I went to Lowes and bought a lot of flowers. I actually bought too many flowers. Oh well I found place for them. They look great. I also cleaned the garage. It is so nice again. And I put away the winter stuff. Space Saver bags are my friends…fill the bag with coats, scarfs, gloves, and hats and vacuum it up. It becomes really small and flat. Sweet!
Swirl is having a great week. The weather has been nice enough so that the windows can be open. The birds have been going nuts outside our window and Swirl is crouching down and then pounces on at the window. It is quite funny to watch. He wiggles his butt and tail, crouches down and then springs into action. Hence the title…it’s a play on words from the movie “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.” I’ve never seen the movie but it seemed like a fitting description of Swirl’s actions.
