Ahh, it feels nice to be blogging from bed. This might be the night I finally get more than eight hours of sleep. I’m such a night person, I have a really hard time settling down after playing on the internet. But I’m especially tired (because I always am on Mondays) and because my office is working hard on a huge shipping project. We’re sending out 250 boxes of textbooks to students all over the world and everyone has been…

Today’s weather was just perfect. Not too hot or humid, with wonderful breezes – a reminder that fall is right around the corner. But the air conditioner was blasting in my office and it was a very slow Monday. The highlight of my day was going outside the building to get the mail and having lunch at the wonderful cafe at the law school. All of the food is fresh and local and there are awesome options at a reasonable…
It’s hard to believe that summer is coming to an end. Because we relocated right smack dab in the middle of it, I feel like I haven’t been able to fully appreciate the wonderful foods of summer. And, I haven’t had a chance to see the ocean:( We all know the kitchen and I haven’t really been friends this summer. But when a coworker bought me a bag of fresh herbs from her garden, I had a small yearning to…
Happy Monday. Although getting up at 5:45 again didn’t sound too appetizing last night, I will say that I was excited to go back to work! I just love having an organized desk and hearing the little bell on outlook when I get an email:) I used to use outlook in college (when I had a Dell), so it reminds me of long hours at my desk senior year. Yesterday I mentioned that I’d be attending a brunch for incoming…
It sure is hot here, but I’m in love with our outdoor space. It’s the one thing I really wanted in Boston but we were not able to afford it up there. Now we have a small deck!!! Last night, we officially cooked our first dinner in the new kitchen: tilapia with strawberry sauce, rice, and brussels. It was nice and light, but a bit bland because I forgot to buy butter! It’s something that’s almost always in our fridge,…
Today was wonderful; just how I wish every day could be. I went to spinning before work, rolled into the office around 9:30, left around 1:30 and enjoyed the rest of my afternoon running errands and strolling around Boston. There was nothing going on in the office, so I just left! I went straight to the Teriyaki house on my way home to get Chinese food for one of my counseling cases (since tomorrow will be our last session and…
Today was my last day of babysitting! Now I am officially unemployed. It was a little sad, but mostly exciting. The weather was breezy and in the 70’s – perfect for lying under my tree while the kids played at the park. I wished a had brought a new book to start today, but I just enjoyed the sunshine. Then I took the little guy to J.P. Licks for a special ice cream treat. I got half peanut butter and…
I love this whole having time on the weekends thing. I think I’m still recovering from being booked during the month of May. Despite the chilly weather, Friday even was nice and relaxed. I met Matt downtown afterwork and we grabbed a drink at the Intercontinental Hotel. We had planned on sitting outside on the water at one of the new Seaport restaurants, but decided it was too cold and windy. I still enjoyed a nautical drink – a pineapple…
Greetings. I’ve been in an exceptionally good mood recently. I think it’s because I’ve finished nearly all my work at my internship. I’ve also been working out in the morning more frequently and it makes my whole day more position when I get exercise out of the way. And, I got a really nice job rejection – not good, but much better to get nice feedback than hear nothing at all. I babysat today because my family needed a bit…
