Almost like Christmas

Coming home from work last night was so much fun- when I walked into the condo I was greeted by beautiful new countertops and a tile backsplash in my kitchen. I had dreamed of doing this project for over 5 years now (since I bought the place). Seeing it all done was like a dream come true. I guess it is just hard for me to believe that my 1970's era ugliest kitchen in America could look so good!! I am so happy that I decided to get all this remodeling done.

Then I visited two Lowe's stores trying to find more tile so the workers could finish the job today. Oh well- I stopped at UDF and had the most delicious non-fat peach froozen yogurt-- it was yummy to say the least!!!

I have a meeting tomorrow with the Vice- President of Life Insurance operations for Nationwide Insurance to discusss my career path. One side of me wants to VENT like no other and let him know how much lying, cheating, inside deals, and pure evil goes on in this organization (of course- when I got back to my desk I am sure I would be greeted by security and escorted from the building). So I have to focus on the positives and look to the future.

Berkley and Stella are shopping today at Tuttle Crossing Mall- so I will have lunch with the family- hopefully this will satisify their needs for parent/ child bonding for the week-- with the added bonus of a free lunch...

On the domestic side- I actually prepared some delicous homemade fat-free potato salad-- I was so impressed with myself- perhaps my inner- Martha Stewart is emerging!!

Quote for the day, "Enjoy life- there are no re-runs." -- Shirl Lowery (whoever she is- but i like the quote).

Make it a great day.
