last week, i was on travel for work... spent a few days in the Kingsland, GA/Jacksonville, FL area... one day, we had some extra time after our site survey, so we decided to visit St. Augustine, FL... we toured an old fort, and even visited the Fountain of Youth (according to Ponce de Leon)... it was pretty neat... definately beat sitting in a hotel room for an afternoon...
thursday was not productive at all... work has been super boring lately, as we have no projects in the office right now... hopefully, things will pick up again soon (they usually do)...
friday, thankfully, was my day off!!! so i ran errands... i went to the post office and applied for my passport... that was exciting... well, the process really wasn't exciting, but knowing that i'll be able to visit many countries with my passport was what made it exciting!!! i'm kinda worried about the timing though... it's supposed to take 6 weeks to be mailed to me... so i'll have it in plenty of time for going to visit chris in england, but i'm not sure i'll have it in time to use it for our cruise to the bahamas in december... i know, you don't need a passport for the cruise, but if you don't have one, you have to have your birth certificate... and my birth certificate was mailed off with my passport papers (to be returned to me in 6 weeks)... hopefully there's no delay in receiving everything... maybe i should see about getting a certified copy of the birth cert. just in case...
after the passport stuff, i took my car in for her 15000 mile service... can you believe 15000 miles already?!?! i drive too much... i'm sure once chris isn't within driving distance anymore, my mileage will be cut down by quite a bit... and i probably won't drive to indiana again, either...
ooo... and last week, i received some new cookbooks - "Cooking for Two (or just you)" and "Healthy Cooking for Singles"... both books had some great things i'd like to try, so friday, i went wild at the grocery store... it was fun, and hopefully, i'll have as much fun making the dishes...
saturday, i did a lot of scrapbooking (trying to get caught up again)... and cleaned out my closest and dressers... i was able to get rid of half of my clothes, though most were old t-shirts from rose that i mainly just sleep in... the wearable clothes are being donated to charity, and i tossed the t-shirts and ratty stuff... i'm also donating most of my stuffed animals and toys... it felt good to just clear out a lot of my clutter... and knowing that someone else will get some use out of most of it is good too...
sunday, i was a slacker for most of the morning, napping on and off till after noon... so i decided i needed to do something to tire myself out later in the afternoon... so, i did my walking video... haven't done it in about 2 months (i know, i'm a slacker)... but i made it through all 3 miles, and felt great!!! then after that, ruth and i went for a walk around the lake behind our house... it was a good brisk walk, and added another mile and a half to my total for the day... i didn't have much trouble going to sleep last night, hehe... and i can't wait till i can do my video tonight!!!
