Good feelings on a good day

I am feeling really good today. I actually fell asleep last night before midnight, which is a miracle! And I am up pretty early today! I haven't felt this good in a while, not just physically but in spirit. Sometimes it is hard to get really really excited about being here. I am starting to get used to it, but I still miss Indiana. Don't get me wrong, I try really hard to be content, but for me to actually wake up feeling good about the day is an accomplishment.

Alena and Belles have been here since Monday! *grin* I had to work when they got here Monday... but Tuesday we went swimming with Jessica. (Jessica is a gal I work with who is sooo sweet! She is preggers with her first kid too and we just found out we live in the same apartment complex. Needless to say, we have made friends pretty easy.) Jamie joined us for a swim when we got home and he was so funny...splashing water and throwing Belles around. I got excited to see him interacting with the soon to be 5 year old. I just know he is going to be a great dad! After we were all wore out and prunny, Alena decided we should go out for an early brithday dinner! (Did I mention it's my birthday??) So she took us to get some grub...and it was good! Jamie had ribs and was in heaven and I got a RIBEYE STEAK! I felt so spoiled! It was soooooooo good! I ate all 12 oz of it. I was surprised I actually ate it all since I only eat small portions now a days. Yesterday we went shoe shopping for Alena and came home and watched a chick flick and threw some leftovers together for dinner. Pretty eventful week, eh?

Got a hilarious phone call from my parents this morning. They were singing me happy birthday and you could tell they hadnt rehearsed...or had they? Anyway I was happy to hear from them and I wish they could be here. Maybe soon though!
