It's Finally here!

This week felt like it was never going to end. There were so many things going on at work and in my life. I kept hoping that Friday would come but it took for ever. I am sorry I sound a little angry and I really am not. I just couldn't wait for the weekend because I am going on a holiday for the first time in 4 years. Yes you heard it right. A real holiday for two whole weeks. I am not working either one of my jobs. I am not going anywhere spectacular but the city of Grand Prairie. I am just excited to have time to relax and get caught up with my sleep.

The other exciting news is that my sister in law just had her first baby boy. Benson is his name. I now am the proud aunt of five nephews. I think the Easthope men are just suppose to have boys I guess. I am going to go visit my new nephew on my holidays. Nothing better then seeing a new baby. When they are newborns they are so easy to look after. Its when the get older that they start being a little harder to manage. Shh don't tell anyone that I said that they might think that I don't want any kids.

On Thursday night I threw a bridal shower for my roommate that is getting married. Now I have done many bridal showers before, but this was one of the easiest ones I have ever had to do. Tara didn't want one and when her mom asked me if I would do one I gladly excepted. I had to keep it a secret from her for a couple of weeks and I can't believe that I pulled it off. She had no clue. If she had found out she would have not wanted to go through with it. I kept it very simple with a few family members and friends. I only played one game that was very easy that everyone would like and had food and presents of course. Oh ya and decorations of course. Everyone had a good time and it went very smoothly. My roommate surprised her self because she has said to me several times now how grateful she was for what I had done and how much fun she had. Now I am not trying to brag really but I am so grateful to all the people that helped me pull off this wonderful event.

I know that some of you that will read this are not a fan of this show, but I have to say something about it. I have been watching the show One Tree Hill. It just keeps getting better and better. Somehow they manage to let someone be happy for a few minutes and then they have something bad happen to them which they spend the rest of the episode working out and then end the episode happy again. It's not just that its the peoples lives that are portrayed so well and how the affect you in so many ways. I know I sound a little crazy but I think that everyone should watch this show.

I am getting use to there being three of us living in our basement suit, however when I come back one of them will be moving out. She has been a great support and friend in my life and wish her all the love and happiness.

Well I think I have talked way to long. I will tell you all about my holidays when I get back.

P.S. There is nothing better then tennis!
