Honeymoon Ideas?
If anyone has some affordable honeymoon locations that they would recommend please let me know! Anywhere is really open to us, including in North America so if anyone has some great suggestions I’d love to hear your thoughts since we are a bit at a loss for what to do. We are looking at leaving late August and being gone for about a week.

It's eleven thirty on a Tuesday
And the people in the condo above us have decided that now is a good time to have their very own Whitney tribute. They are currently blasting a repeat of “I will always love you” while simultaneously doing laps in their living room. I can’t wait to buy a house when I can choose a more appropriate time to do all of the above.

Kudos
to anyone who could sit through the whole 2+ hours of The Tree of Life. Definitely not on my radar as best picture.
Fact:
Tim Horton’s lattes are terrible. Absolutely terrible.
Things I'm Excited for:
The Oscars- and the snacks I have planned in Best Picture themes for my little Oscar get together (also known as the second annual best Oscar party ever…)
No longer working nights, at least for a few weeks. I’m dying over here being asleep all day and up all night. I need a tan.
Shopping for houses for real instead of the pretend online shopping we have been doing.
Having a...
On the weekend
Joey bought his suit for the wedding and I don’t think anyone has ever looked better in a grey suit! Getting more excited with every milestone we hit and unbelievably excited to see him on the day of!

On Friendship
Last night I dreamt of friends that are no longer in my life. Not that we parted on bad terms, but friends who were there for a distinct period of my life and whom I have wonderful memories with. They were “friends of convenience” or something like that, but they were nonetheless really good friends. They also aren’t on facebook, leaving it up to my imagination to decide where...

Quality Customer Service:
Me: Hi, I was just calling to see if what I had ordered from your store had arrived yet.
Customer Sales Rep: No it hasn't.
Me: But I haven't even given you my name or what I ordered yet...
CSR: We will call you when it comes, ok?
Me: Well it's been over three weeks when I was told it would only be one.. so is it possible for you check and see if it has arrived? (I then gave her my name and what I ordered)
CSR: It's not here.
UGGGH. So frustrating! She finally put me on hold to "check" but I'm not confident that she did anything since she repeated the same thing when she came back.
When I sit back
and think about my job, sometimes I’m in awe of what lies in my hands and my actions. It can be overwhelming to think about the responsibility that I have, and it can be so stressful to the point that I question it all. One little mistake can cause so much damage, but then… I have a moment where I am able to do something amazing, like help a baby breathe again. And I remember why I...
Happiness is
discovering you still have another episode of Downton to watch!
(Note: I’m sorry for all the Downton posts lately, but really, I’m not sorry. This show is getting me through my rotation of night shifts.)
Now that I've watched every episode of Downton...
I think I’m going to have to go back and watch them all over again. I need my fill of Lady Mary, Mr. Bates and Anna and the world of Downton (to always be read in a British accent) in order to get me to Sunday.

One of those days.
Seriously bad. I need a do-over, a glass bottle of wine or something to make me forget this day ever happened.
