Last night while I was making dinner it dawned on me that it was a Sunday night and I couldn’t be happier about it. I stopped working Friday evening and already knew I was going to have a full week ahead of me, but instead of being depressed at the thought, I was EXCITED. I had to keep myself out of my office over the weekend to keep from getting things done. I used to scratch my head at people who like working, but I totally get it now! Don’t get me wrong- sometimes the last thing I want to do is sit down at my computer and start editing. But the overwhelming feeling I have about my job is one of GRATITUDE and JOY. It makes Monday mornings something to look forward to!

As always, lessons learned/things that happened over the weekend:

• Be sure to look up a recipe for pizza before you start making it. I used the entire lump of dough I bought from Wegmans and the pizza crust ended up being at least an inch thick. I don’t think pizza is SUPPOSED to be that tall…
• As Matt and I were laying in bed at 11:45 on Saturday night, I suddenly realized it was the three year anniversary of when we became “official.” Which ends up being ok, because it was around 11:45 at night that we made things official. In case I hadn’t mentioned before, this all transpired (three years ago) at the midnight release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
• I may also mention that I seriously considered sending a wedding invitation to JK Rowling. But I didn’t want her to upstage me at my own wedding, so I held off. TRUE STORY.
• I set out this morning to run 5 miles, but by a  happy accident my GPS watch ran out of battery and I ended up going 6 on accident. Always a nice surprise!
• This morning I learned that I only sort of like running. I like stopping running MUCH more though, and that’s what makes the previous however many miles worth it.
• Did that previous sentence make ANY sense?

Look at this sweet new to-do list pad I found at Paper Source! I’ve been keeping my daily lists on little Post-Its, but I keep losing them which = majorly stressful. These are just plain awesome, and the design changes every day. I clearly have more than two things to do every day, so I just add stuff all over the page.

Happy Monday!
