World Traveler: Oh happy day!

T5B: 1) (Of course, I got to talk to Jerod!) I got to see Limor!! 2) Work went really well this morning. 3) I controlled my attitude and feel good about what happened today though I didn't have much time to myself. 4) I got to open my Valentine's package and Jerod opened his from me (I got MAJORLY spoiled). 5) I got lots done today too! OH! 6) My water pipes didn't freeze! I am SO blessed in that regard!

basal temp: 36.41

Morning:
- I woke up around 2-4 am (didn't check the time) and remembered I forgot to turn off my water - checked the temp and it was -10, I scrambled and prayed and turned the water off (LUCKILY - BLESSEDLY - my pipes didn't freeze)
- had weird dreams, but according to my phone I got 95% sleep (although it says I was asleep when I wasn't - still I'm thinking 90s, high 80s!)
- got up early since I couldn't sleep anymore and showered
- did dishes
- did laundry
- hung up my laundry
- went to work, that went really well :)
- came home, opened my gift here while Jerod opened his in the US (I got SPOILED - like I said ~ pic below)
- had this weird flashing lights thing going on with my eyes, ate some chocolate Jerod sent and it went away (low blood sugar, maybe? it was creepy!)

Notes: It was a busy and good morning.

Afternoon:
- Limor showed up
- we went to lunch
- we walked to a park where we heard they had a candle festival and of course the candles weren't lit, but we got to see them!
- we went to a cafe and got hot chocolate
- we went shopping (I got two things I needed at Daiso and for the life of me can't remember the third thing I needed!)
- we went back to mine and chatted
- Limor had to go home

Notes: It was SO GREAT to see Limor!! She's so amazing! - She brought me a beautiful gift from Australia (pic below).

Evening:
- ate some dinner
- read
- ate some treats that Jerod sent (I shared some with Limor as well)
- read a little
- watched some anime
- got to talk to Jerod a bunch <3

Notes: Glad I am feeling better tonight. I think the past two days I must not have been nourishing myself adequately and that's why I've felt so crappy. I forgot to mention, last night I spilled my dinner in the kitchen. I just wanted to cry and give up. It was such a crappy night. Jerod was really sweet though. In any case, tonight was much better and thanks to deciding even though I wouldn't have much alone time I would still have a good weekend, I have. Tomorrow my choir sings! I hope we do well! We didn't have the time I thought we would to prepare (2 Sundays where other things interfered with practice). I'm excited to here them. :) It's a wonderful arrangement. YAY! Just found the next one, and I'm excited for that one too. I'm excited to share it with you. XOXO, A

blast from the past: One of my FAVORITE stories about me as a kid ~ when I was in nursery (church group ages 6 months- 18 months) we did an activity in which we had to say our favorite thing about Christmas. So I come home with this nice ornament, all covered in glitter. On the outside it says, "My favorite thing about Christmas is..." and inside I had dictated: When my mom dresses up like a spider and dances around. LOL!!! She was MORTIFIED. She told me she wondered what the teachers thought of her. LOL What a grand Christmas tradition! ;)

A picture I tried to send to Jean-Mi when he asked "Who is this?" I sent this pic with "Shhh secret!" But he didn't get the pic... lol

Here is what Jerod got me for Valentine's Day: a mug with hot chocolate, a rose sucker, a Spongebob marshmallow lolly, a Native Spirit flute 2 cd set (to help me sleep), 3 boxes of Good & Plenty, 2 Rescue Bars (that, of course, remind me of Momma), a bag of peanut M&Ms, 2 dark chocolate orange Lindt bars, a Godiva rasp chocolate bar, a honeycomb all natural chocolate bar, and a "Simple Nut Temptation" all natural chocolate bar :D (SPOILED!!)
