On this Thursday I decided to do a little sleeping in. Work was slower than normal, and after work I went tanning. My dad and I went to Salvation Army and the Dollar Store and bought lots of stuff we didn't need (clothes and snacks). Shortly after we got home, I had to go back out to meet my BFF at the gym. Tonight our workout was extra intense- GREAT!

I'm spending the rest of my Cinco de Mayo relaxing to the best of my capability.

What a long Wednesday! I had a long rainy morning drive, plus a visit with my uncle before I even got to work. After work it was straight to ceramics class where I picked up all the items that I glazed last week (glazing is my favorite part, I love experimenting with different combinations) and I also made a bunch of new items. Then I met my BFF at the gym, and then we got mini meals at good old Crystal Diner. By the time I got home I was so tired it was ridiculous. I love doing as many things in one day as I possibly can.

Tuesday was great. The weather felt like summer. I woke up early and went to the gym, got breakfast out, and went tanning. I took inventory on work shirts at the office, and then had to figure out who to give them to. Asking someone over the phone what size shirt they wear is an unusual and sometimes uncomfortable question.
After work I went to visit a friend who's away at college. We had a blast. When you travel to foreign places, sometimes you encounter a lot of unusual people. This occasion was no exception, but that's what makes the experience so exciting I guess. We all need some variety in life.

My goodness, what a Monday! I kept extra super busy at work- I got all the expense reports done (usually it takes me two days, but I got it all done today). By the time I finally finished i had just a few minutes to catch up with a co-worker then it was time to go home! I got so much sun yesterday and throughout the weekend that I took the day off from tanning. Instead I went home and hung out with my brother and his friend, just running lots of errands and having a grand old time driving around and listening to music with the windows open. I can't believe the day is over already!

What a different Sunday! My dad brother and I got up early and ready for church, but when we arrived it turns out they were only having one mass today, and it wasn't for two hours! So we skipped church and went straight to Columbus Flea Market extra early. I got the armadillo ring that I'm wearing in the picture above and a couple other things. It's always just nice to walk around, be outside, and enjoy the sights of Columbus. We did a shortened version of the flea market today, and went to the Berlin Flea Market in south Jersey near my other house. It was very crowded, and all I got was a funnel cake. After that flea market, my dad and brother had to cut the grass at my other house. I sun bathed, picked up sticks, cut trees, and took a nap while they cut grass. We went to Goodwill on the way home and I got more clothing that I didn't really need.

I repotted a whole bunch of plants when I finally got home. I hope they get big in their new pots if I leave them outside for the season!

Saturday was very productive. My BFF and I journeyed home from Jersey City and got pizza/coffee on our way back. I spent the afternoon doing tons of laundry, changing my sheets, unpacking from vacation, and just enjoying being home alone and being able to get so much done. When evening hit, my dad and I went to Goodwill, Home Depot and the Dollar Store- I made too many purchases. The rest of the night was spent at home with my family which is always a good time.
