Things I Love Thursday

1. Skipping out on a faculty meeting and sitting in a quiet pod at 4:20 in the afternoon when I can really get some work done...
okay, so it is 4:20 right now and I had tutoring today on top of a regular school day...yes, I know, crazy. Anyway...everyone else went to a faculty meeting...ha, sneaky of me to plan tutoring on a faculty meeting day...ha! I figure my kids need the tutoring more than I need the lecturing....I mean the filling me with information until 5:00pm. So..now, here it is 4:20 and the pod is silent....and it is so nice.

2. Lindt: Lindor Truffles
Oh my gosh...if you have not had one then you need to rush out at this very minute and buy yourself not just one, but many of these things. I was at Jackson's General last weekend doing some Mother's Day shopping and they had these truffles that you could buy separately for .40 cents a piece. So, I proceeded to buy a white chocolate one and a peanut butter one (Sarai I thought of you with this one and you would LOVE it!). They are soooo good! So, when I was at WalMart on Monday I found them in bags...only they did not sell the peanut butter ones...so I settled for the next best...white chocolate. They are so good.

3. Babysitting Kalei Cody
Allie and I were given the absolute pleasure of babysitting Kalei Cody on Wednesday. Allie was just like a wonderful little helper as I was having to do many things for Kalei. Allie has proven that she would be a great big sister.....ha. Kevin did not think that was too funny...but I thought that it was. Anyway..she is the cutest little one year old! We had loads of fun. What made it even more awesome was the fact that Kalei wanted to be with me all the time. She loved for me to hold her and sit with her...which was fine by me. Allie enjoyed it all too. We had such a great time. I was suppose to get to keep her again this evening, but the plans changed and her dad was able to pick her up and watch her. Shucks. Instead, I get to stay at work a little later and work. Yippee...NOT!

4. The 20 minutes of sheer joy I get in the tanning bed.
Okay, admit it. If you go to the tanning bed you know, as well as I do, that this is the 20 minutes each day or every other day where no one can bother you..no one can be in your face tattling on someone else...no one can be begging and pleading for something you have said "no" to already..no one can take that time away from you. It is the most relaxing 20 minutes I get each time I am able to go to the tanning bed....I always leave there with a new sensation and ready to start all over again..it revives me! Ha.
