Do you ever feel like you woke up on the wrong side of the bed? Well I did. Today. It's one of those things when your alarm goes off and you just have that feeling of well I don't want to get out of bed, and I don't want to get ready, and put on work clothes, and drive all the way to work, and then sit at your desk for eight hours, and put up with all the various personalities that you are so privileged to work with on a daily basis.
Do you ever feel like there are just not enough hours in the day? That the hours that pass from the time you wake up to the time you go back to bed have just not been enough! And no matter how awesome you are at multi-tasking...it is still not enough.
Do you ever feel like finding out who invented coffee...time traveling back to when ever that was...and giving that person THE BIGGEST HUG...EVER!?!?!?! (It was probably a woman who was having these feelings...by the way)
Do you ever feel like even though you spend most of your time at work when it is time to go home, you just don't want to go home? Cuz then when you get home there is laundry and dinner and dog duties and more laundry and dishes and the list goes on. And just for the record if I could ever have a "fairy" I would totally pick the "Laundry Fairy". I just wish I was not to Type A when it comes to laundry. I dug myself a hole that I will forever live in, but it drives me nuts when clothes are not ironed!!! Seriously I iron almost everything (unless I am too tired, and just don't care) from Mr.Mac's white t-shirts to just casual t-shirts to pants to button downs and everything in between. I have my mother-in-law to thank for this also. She is like master ironer and her tendencies rubbed off on me.
Do you ever feel like a kook job for having typed a paragraph about ironing?
Do you ever feel sooo much better when you have poured out your bad morning feelings on your blog (while you are at work)?
CUZ I DO!!!!!!!!!

How Was Your Day?
Mr. Mac is a teacher. I am not. Yes, I get a little frustrated in the summer. No I have not done so this summer. Why? Because Mr. Mac taught summer school for the first month of summer break. So this week has been his first week of actual "summer break". Being married to a teacher has its ups and downs.
One of the ups is surprise lunches at work with him! And the fact that it was a day that I worked bell to bell with no breaks made it that much better! I still get butterflies when I see him turn the corner into my office. Today he had this in his hands...
If ya'll don't know what Tokyo Joe's...you are totally missing out! They have the best California Rolls and their food is just soo good! I just love when the hubby comes to my work...it is where we met (to come in another post) and I always get to show him off.
Some of my best memories of being a little girl are when I would go to my mom's work. She always had a drawer in her desk that had stamps and paper and pens and all sorts of office supplies. I would spend hours playing "office". Well today when Mr. Mac was in my office her started going through my drawer it looks something like this...
And this is organized...as you may be able to tell I am a total office supply junkie! Seriously going to supply stores is one of my favorites and always has been. Don't even get me started on Back to School shopping. So as my hubby is going through my drawer and taking home a pen and some other things I sent him home with I could help but smile. Those fun, vivid memories of my being a little girl at my moms office came back to me and made my heart happy.

ONE
Well we made it! We celebrated our 1 year anniversary last weekend!!!!
As we were approaching the date I felt like I was stuck in a time warp. Let me rewind a little.
We had a large wedding and by large I mean 300 people!!!! In the last few months before our wedding I had officially gone into BRIDEZILLA mode. I was obsessed with every.single.detail. I was in wedding mode and then some. It was great and our wedding was perfect...but I wish I would have stopped and took a deep breath and soaked it all in. I wish I would have enjoyed more and stressed less.
Fast Forward to June 19th 2011.
One year later.
One new driver's license later.
One new last name later.
One big move later.
One fight later.
One laugh later.
One promise later.
One cry later.
One decision later.
One vacation later.
One scare later.
One new job later.
One bonding moment later.
One laugh later...again :)
One day later.
So yes I did stress out probably more than I should have but now when I look at I realize it was OUR ONE day, and I wanted it to be the best it could be...and it was.
We decided we would watch our wedding video every year on our anniversary. I don't really remember our vows (between you and me). So we put it in the DVD player and the first song started and I got that lump...ya know the lump that you have to swallow or else...I cherish that day and those vows. Since I did maybe forget them it was so special to remember them and to watch us as we promised before God and these witnesses to be true to each other and to live a life with God in the center of our marriage. It felt good to come back to base...where it is safe...where it is just the two of us no.matter.what.
We went out to eat at this super yummy seafood restaurant, where we both ate way too much food; but enjoyed every bite of it! And topped it all off with chocolate creme brulee...and it was just as good as it sounds!
So here we are one year later and one anniversary later. I am so excited to spend many more anniversaries together I love you Mr. Mac and I am so proud to call you my ONE and only :)
