Day Seventy Eight.

    I should apologize to my loyal readers because this is the second time in one week which I have been a day late completing my entry. In my defense it has been an unusually busy week. When I had time to write my blog last night I fell asleep on the couch until 4am....then I was going to do it quick but the internet was down again! Ugh, so I had my boyfriend look at it before he left....apparently he fixed it. So I must have jinxed myself at work yesterday because I was training and I kept saying I hoped we would have a day which would be conducive to learning. Well, we sure did....it was probably one of the most hands on days I've ever had in that specific department. Both me and my trainee couldn't really take any more once the day was over. Due to the fact the day was so involved I really felt I couldn't wait to shower, plus I really felt I needed to wash everything on me including my jacket.
    Once I got home I put everything I could find that I hadn't washed this week and threw it in the laundry, then took a shower. I was trying to hurry up the process because I thought that my boyfriend was going to try to get out on time so that we could go to the food store fairly early. I was rushing around and got the laundry folded from the day before in record speed! Unfortunately he didn't show up to my house until almost 6:30pm. We spent almost half an hour going over our grocery list and then settled on a local eatery for dinner. The shopping trip was the worst....we ended up going to two food stores to get everything we needed and didn't get home until 10pm. We decided for the main dish for the party we would copy my sisters always great idea of making pulled pork. The first food store didn't have a cut of meat large enough for everyone so we had to go somewhere else to get another piece. We spent almost an hour and a half with the preparations last night then threw the meat in the crockpot for the overnight.
    My boyfriend went to bed a little before midnight and I stayed up to clean the dishes and enjoy a glass of wine! I thought I would watch a Christmas movie but I only made it through a little bit of one before I fell asleep. I won't lie I'm definitely getting pretty anxious about my party, but at least we are in the home stretch. I feel like I've just been rushing around all this week, but I am trying to remind myself that I'm evenings all next week and I will have plenty of down time. I ended up wiping my shoes off after work yesterday....maybe I can do better with that this weekend at work. Alright, until later!
