What Day Is It?!?

I open my eyes and peek at my phone to look at the time. OMG!! It’s 6:50 I yell to my husband as I jump out of bed freaking out that I have to be out of the house at 7:15 to go to work. I run to the bathroom kicking myself for not having remembered to set my alarm. I look in the mirror at my disheveled hair thinking about how I’m going to tame it and get ready in less than 15 minutes. I rush to grab my phone so I can text my bff/coworker to vent to her that I woke up late. I start typing a message to her and I notice a text that she sent late in the evening yesterday about her having gotten home from dinner. I stop in my tracks because I know very well that she wouldn’t be getting home late on a work night (we pride ourselves in early bed times) and I walk over to my husband and ask; “What day is it?” “It’s Saturday...” he replies. I put my phone down and get back into bed, heart still pounding and ask him why he laid there watching me as I ran around frantically. He just responds “I don’t know?” We both giggle fall back to sleep.

    Hahaha - been there! Nothing quite like those moments of terror and amazement at yourself for being so forgetful. The only emotion close to it is that wonderful realization of the actual mistake you made. And you captured it all so well here!

    Hahaha! I'm impressed that you went back to bed; those morning freak outs are the worst! Tomorrow is the last day of our March break - I'm afraid my Monday morning panic will be real.

    I would never have been able to get back to sleep after that adrenaline rush! You capture so much thinking and action here.

Intentions

I chose intentions as my "One little Word" this year. I was chatting about work/life with one of my best friends who has been in my life for over 17 years a few months ago and she gave me probably the best advice I needed in that exact moment, which was to set my intention each day before arriving at work. This happened to be around the same time that my colleagues were sharing their "OLW's" and I thought I would try it out as well. I thought about my conversation with my friend and it hit me...intentions... I wasn't sure if it was the right kind of word but it felt right to me. It is a word that could fit in every aspect of my life. I am constantly thinking about my intentions and they have quickly become the fuel of my day to day. Intentions. Setting  the  intention. Treating people with good intentions. Doing everything with the best intention no matter the situation. What's your "OLW"?

Gratitude  On this last day of the blogging challenge I woke up feeling grateful. Grateful for the opportunity to participate in this challenge that forces me to find small parts of my day that stick out just enough to write about it. Grateful for waking up on this beautiful island on day two if our spring break vacation. Grateful for all the people I have around me everyday. Grateful for the opportunity I get to sit with the little humans and enhance their already wonderful minds. Grateful for my beautiful little family. And most importantly, grateful for this wonderful life.

A little self care and a Seafood Grill

\ My good friend Daisy is getting married today and we thought it would be fun to do a little wedding primping before the big day! I met Daisy over the summer and we have quickly become good friends. There is never a dull moment when I hang out with her and I have truly enjoyed getting to know her. We visited a nail salon in Oakbrook for a relaxing mani/pedi session. The bride decided on white nails and I went with a baby pink color!  After our two hour nail appointment we went to Devon to enjoy a delicious meal of lobster bisque soup to start and a seafood mix grill as our main course. By the end of the meal we were full and ready to return home. It was a great evening full of celebration, laughs, a little self care and a seafood grill.
