1.) Called my Daddy because I have been on the verge of tears all day and I needed him.  He made me giggle and giggle and giggle as I knew he would.

I love that! My dad does the same for me as well! I'm glad you got to talk to him!

1. FINALLY got the money from our apartment sell so we can pay off the majority of our debts! I will be nice to be debt free! (Hopefully the only debt left will be my University loan.)

2. Another quiet day at the office! Lets me get my head down and get caught up with things (Once I get off of UK Yankee of course! LOL!)

1. Valentine's Day socks. It was time to dig them out of the back of the sock drawer again.  [smiley=heart.gif]

2. Bubble baths. With all this packing and tripping over stacks of boxes that we've been sorting to either ship or store at the in-laws', bubble baths have been keeping me sane-ish this week.  [smiley=dizzy2.gif]

1. The sale for our apartment FINALLY went through! (it was sold waaaay back in the end of November!  ::)) Glad it's done and dusted!

2. It's Friday and I get to go home early today!

1. This is technically from yesterday but bear with me... I randomly met a guy yesterday and just had an instant rapport with him. Before he left I quickly wrote down my first name and cell number. I handed the paper to him and said, "Here take this." He asked what it was. I replied, "my phone number"   [smiley=curtain.gif][smiley=blush.gif] After telling my flatmates about that gutsy move, they couldn't believe it. I said to myself that I didn't mind if he ever responded but that the gesture itself was fun to do. I didn't really oblige him, if he wanted to respond great, if not, oh well right?

2.  He texted me today  ;D As my coworker has said, I'm like a school girl in the yard with little pigtails

rynn_aka_rae, go you! I've never had the guts to give a guy my phone number and I'm glad he texted you. Sometimes taking a risk pays off.  :)

It's good you felt like trusting someone with your phone number, rynn  :D :D

1. Lots of snowdrops and even some very small but brave vinca appearing at the southwest corner of our building.  [smiley=daisy.gif] [smiley=daisy.gif]

2. I heard a chickadee doing its spring season "feee-beee" call this morning.

1. Hubby took today off (Though I couldn't  :\\\'( ) and we are going to spend this weekend together celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary (it's on the 14th, but neither of us could get it off..so we are celebrating this weekend!) I'll try to leave work early if possible!  [smiley=smitten.gif]

2. I'm genuinely thankful that it's Friday today, it's been a really long week for some reason!

1. Tacos for lunch. That always makes me happy.

2. Hubby has booked the two nights prior to our flight to the US in June, so we can have a fun weekend in Manchester before we head out. Saturday night a friend is partying with us and Sunday afternoon we are going for a spa day then relaxing for an early night before a 9:30 am flight.

2. My visa was issued this morning! I feel like a normal human being again!
