 I'm going to steal a page from brickhousewench and do a good news Friday post. 

1. I survived my work week and I'm off from my real job till Tuesday! I have to do 4 hours on Saturday at the office job but that's just easy fun money.  

2. I got a $3/hr raise at work! for no reason! well not for NO reason but they evaluated everyone's salary and they're trying to "be more competitive" which is crazy to me as they did the same thing last year and I got a $4 raise so yeah in a year I'm up $7!? cray. 

3. I'm going to Disney with my favorite kid for his Make-a-Wish trip and I'm crazy excited! We are going to have SO MUCH fun. It'll be me, him, the director of nursing and the recreational therapist. Sometime in March not sure the exact dates yet. Rob's thinking of going to disney at the same time and staying with his friend Ryan who works there and we could meet up for dinner or something. 

4. Ellie got groomed on Tuesday so she's super soft and less sheddy. 

5. Ellie starts class on Monday! It's her second level obedience class which is the pre-requisite for the therapy dog class. I'm also stupid excited for that.

6. I did some sewing on my 1830s stays. I got all the gores put in and I'm up to the "now you have to figure out the cording pattern, oh and where did you PUT the cording" 

Today my plan is to work on the cording, poke the embroidery, and find the coffee table as I have friends coming for sewing day on Sunday which I'm greatly looking forward to.  

Rob thinks fresh sugar snap peas from the garden are a strange breakfast. Clearly he's a heathen as they are quite possibly my very favorite food. Somehow snap peas grown at home are completely different than the dried out ones at the store. Ah well more for me.

I ran out to the garden this morning to do a little weeding and pick peas...by 9am it was already so hot I only lasted 20 min. I hate summer. I'm just a WIMP in heat. fully admit it. How I grew up in a house with no AC I'll never really know.  so instead of being outside gardening and passing out I've been painting in the dining room.

Oh and today Ellie turns 5 months! My baby is growing up so fast.
