    A Week of Mixed Emotions

    Well, life has gotten much more interesting than I need it to be. 
     
    First of all, the positives:
    1. A friend and his wife had their little girl this past weekend. She was born 6 weeks early but is quite the trooper and already eating a little bit on her own. What a little blessing.
    2. My Cubbies' pitchers and catchers report on Friday, which mean that the boys of summer will be back soon. Awesome. I'm SO ready for baseball.
    And the not so positives:
    1. Diana lost her battle with cancer last night. She had spent the last 2.5 weeks in the hospice and was able to have so many visitors and her family around her. She will be missed and my heart just aches.
    2. I'm finally over the major part of the flu that I had the end of last week but I'm just tired, cranky and pissy. I have too much to do thanks to being gone 3.5 days and I just can't seem to please anyone just yet here at work. Come on people, I'm just one person.
    So that's where it stands. Hope you are all doing well. *hugs*

    Anyone Reading This?

    Starting to wonder if anyone checks this blog anymore. *smirk* Sorry it's gotten boring and I don't update it as much as I should be ... but there it is.
     
    Today DH and I are going to take in the Super Bowl on our new 47" TV and enjoy the commercials and root on the Cardinals. Got to go with our home boy - Kurt Warner.
     
    Lastly, this past Friday I went upto Waterloo, IA with some friends to a Women in Natural Resources Conference and had a lot of fun. It's always amazing to get together with a group of 80+ women who feel the same way I do - that Iowa's natural resources are priceless. Saw some ladies I haven't seen in quite awhile and had a lot of hugs. Can't wait til next year!
     
    Hope everyone is doing well. Enjoy the game - if you're going to partake. ;)
