I got a call yesterday from a recruiter I interviewed with back in the summer who had a position come up in my field. They needed some immediately so I interviewed this morning and got the offer by dinner. It's not a huge step down in pay and it sounds really interesting. I START TOMORROW! Ahhhh!
My day was kind of blah, but H and I did manage to get a lot done around the house, which feels great. Also, I got an email today about an opportunity to adopt an 8 year old beagle. I'm excited and nervous about meeting him.
I've been a little blah lately, especially at work. Today I challenged myself and set some new goals. I was super productive and found a way to put some passion back into my job. For the first time in awhile, I am excited to go to work tomorrow.

got up at 8 (thus meaning I had nine,count them nine hours of sleep in a row). It's carb night on our diet, and I just had egg rolls and a #49 from the local Vietnamese restaurant. I went to work at noon after running errands, went to court at 130 and after arguing my HEART out for two hours, won a really difficult motion and the client is so freaking happy. and I am too.
I got my secret santa gift yesterday, and while I will not reveal till reveal day, I just want to say again that pantsparty is incredible. INCREDIBLE. funny. Grand. perfect.
Omg.
A great day! What happened to you that was awesome today?

I took delivery of a Dyson Ball Animal vacuum from the UPS man a little while ago, an early Anniversary/Christmas gift from my family. I should not be this gleefully happy over a cleaning appliance...but I am. Now I'm gonna go pour a big glass of wine and watch the end of Downton Abbey Season 3.

We had the annual cookie and cider party at work today, so basically the best day EVER! I contributed handmade cranberry thumbprint cookies that were a HIT!

Our closest mall has a Pho stand - we just discovered it at the weekend and I about died of happiness. We have great restaurants here, but I REALLY miss the zero ambiance, cheap as chips Pho places in the city. This isn't AS good, but a damn site better than no Pho at all.
Today was a blissful day for me too. Just simple stuff. H had a snow day and I got some adorable pictures of DD playing in the snow. Then we went to a local kid's place which is free on Tuesdays and H had a blast playing with the kiddo. Came home for a quick lunch then put her down for a nap and we watched Monster's University. It was just a really nice, fun and unexpected day.

I just got a delivery of 3 more pairs of maternity pants. A pair of jeans, yoga pants and black work pants. I'm only 13w5d but elastic waistbands for the win!
I love your enthusiasm SueSue!! Your posts always make me smile.
My dd and I had a snow day today and spent some much needed time just playing games together, talking and bonding. It has been too long. Perfect day all around. <3

I know no one knows me here but I just have to say I love your enthusiasm! It is contagious.
H and I both ended up having off from work today. I got to sleep in, and then while I ran errands H cleaned the house. When I got home I made dinner and now drinking wine and doing whatever I want (aka nothing important lol). Awesome day.
