I Meant To

I meant to blog yesterday.  Really I did.  But by the time I got home, I was so exhausted that I went to bed at 6:30.  But if I hadn't been so tired, I was going to tell you that my coworker came to me yesterday morning, and said, "I have something for you." 

She handed me a small brown bag, and when I looked inside, I saw...

cocoa toppers!  She explained, "I read your blog and saw that you didn't like the ones from Walmart, so I ordered you these from World Market."   That was so sweet of her!  

I'd intended to have one last night, but I was so worn out, I just went straight to bed.  So, I made some hot chocolate when I got home today, and let me tell you, they are so much better than the ones from Walmart.  

They're much softer, and actually taste like marshmallows.  I love them, so if you're reading this, thank you again!  

Then I was going to tell you about my new hoodie I'd bought from Til Valhalla that finally arrived after being snowed in for a few days. 

Unfortunately, I'd accidentally ordered the wrong size and had to send it back.  Even more unfortunate, they were out of the size I wear, and since it's a limited edition run, they won't be getting any more in.  Maybe next fall, they'll do another run.  In the meantime, I asked for store credit, and might get a t-shirt with the same message on it, once it's applied to my account. 

That was all I was going to talk about yesterday, so today I'll show you my new medal I got from Yes.Fit.  

If I do any more of these races, I'm going to have to put up another medal rack. 

In other news, since it's supposed to be pretty warm over the next few days, I went ahead and put some of my houseplants outside this afternoon for some fresh air and sunshine. 

I'm sure they appreciated it.  I brought them in when it got dark, just in case, even though it's not supposed to be cold enough to frost for several days at least. 

On a similar note, one of the supervisors stopped me at work and asked if I'd started my garden yet.  I said, "Nawwww".  He said he'd already plowed his up, and showed me a picture of it.  It's as big as two football fields.  

I don't see how he has the energy to work a garden that big after working at the plant all day...but then, way back when I was his age, I had a lot more energy, too.  

But for now, I'm completely out...of energy, that is, so I'm going to end this and go to bed.  

Goodnight.
