AWKWARD AND AWESOME THURSDAY

Time for another Awkward and awesome Thursday....hmmm, should I start with the Awkward or the Awesome?   I think I will mix them up today.

Awkward:   Driving 45 minutes to work in the rain and rushing in at the last minute only to discover the meeting was cancelled.
Aweseome:  Getting more time to spend with my mom at lunch because the meeting was cancelled.

Awkward:  Finding a black hair in my fettuccini at Olive Garden
Awesome:  They gave me that meal free

Awesome:  Having the strength to turn down the free fresh baked cookie that smelled so good while I was at work
Awkward:  Making a batch of cookies when I got home and eating half of it by myself....literally

Awkward and Awesome conversation overheard when I got to work last week...."can you please clarify for me our policy on 2 people sharing the same bed together, naked?"  love my job, although the really awkward comments that conversation evoked cannot be posted here:)

Awesome:  Going back to work and not being low censused!
Awkward:  Getting 5 calls in one day to work the next day, all from different people, and telling them all no, I hate telling people no!  But hey, I had a good reason,  I had the afore mentioned meeting to go to, and more importantly a lunch date with my mom.

Awkward:  Going to church alone, teaching Sunday School and Primary and leaving without getting a chance to talk to anyone else
Awesome:  Going to choir practice and getting that chance, we have great people in our choir..and if the rumor is true one of them even blog-stalks me, I feel so special:) 

Awesome, awesome and more awesome:
Getting a chance to visit with all mykids and grandkids in Las Vegas, play games, eat at buffets, enjoy the sunshine go flight lining in boot leg canyon (like ziplining, only faster), go zip lining on freemont street and even go swimming for a short time with my grandkids (only a short time because even though the sun was shining it was not really warm the day the time we decided to go). 

oh, and one more awesome, the estimated graduation date for my Masters program is October 2013

I am going to go pray for sunshine then get some sleep, good night!
