Oak&Toile

I had a fun/busy week last week. Mostly because I took my day off to help a friend look for wedding dresses in Charleson. Oh, so much fun! It was nice to be on the other side (although I saw several eyelet/linen FABULOUS dresses that were just screaming my name) and we had a really good time looking. She just wanted to get a better clue of what she was looking for and we hit up the designer boutiques to try out those fabulous gowns. Then, we caught up over a lovely lunch (curried chicken salad with Craisins - I gotta make it, so good.) and it was a nice time. We are both glad to be close enough to hang out and I think we are getting closer again because we're in the same place in life (somewhat) while our other friends are having just, different paths in life.

Then, I took another half day because I just needed it - to de-frazzle my brain. With my teaching and working this semester, I have a delicate balance of schedules and really needed to get those confirmed up.

Why is it that these kinds of things (like confirming schedules, meetings) stresses me out? I make all of these things a priority and it doesn't feel like I get the same in return. Does that make sense? I'm just adjusting to having a to-do list (that never ends) BEFORE and After work.


On that note!
Weekend was good but busy. Friday included a little James Bond, a little Nutella and a whole lotta red wine!

Saturday, I worked but we went out for beer and BBQ nachos (soooo bad and soooo good) and Sunday we hung out at the beach and just tooled around. We did make it to church and I cleaned up some and did a few loads of laundry, other than that it was a lazy day.

Ermmm, that's it for now. We are headed to Charleston again, this weekend and also preparing to celebrate our one year anniversary - yay!! I've got to find a place for the sweet pup to board while we are gone, finish up anniversary presents/reservations annnnd figure out how my transcripts got lost in a shuffle even though I confirmed a month ago they were faxed (argh, these are the things in life that get under my skin).

That's it for now! Have a good week.
