Back and better

So, Mr. Pit came home last night (albeit not exactly pleased at being in the city until 8:30) and felt much better about things. We had some ice cream sandwiches (I mean really, who doesn't like those) and watched some HGTV and I felt like I had my old husband back. It was quite nice to say the least.

Then I went to bed and Mr. Pit stayed up to write a paper for his grad school class tonight. I think I will be just as excited for him to graduate next summer as he will, it really takes a toll on both of us, but I know how worth it is in the end. Someone told me yesterday that the MBA is the new BA, so I am really glad that he is in the program. Plus, with all the folks that have been laid off recently, acceptance into the top programs is going to be even harder now with THAT many more people applying, yikes!

Anyways, today, as a response to the horrid cloudy cold weather we have in Philly, I am wearing signature pink, navy and Lilly and I feel better already.

I also have a lunch date with E at the Comcast Center for sushi, and I can't wait. (I am leaving in 5 minutes, so it's really on my mind!).

Then tonight we have a required (yes, required) quarterly staff meeting from 5-8. Awesome. It is normally a 'state of the union' type address but tonight could be not so fun as we are really hurting for some big projects because without them we could have our 4th round of layoffs. Total yikes.

Good news is that my department (a hybrid of estimating/purchasing and engineering) is really really busy, so I think I am safe (kind of). Here's hoping!

oh, ALSO, I downloaded the Lilly background for my computer and I absolutely adore it. I had to save over a picture of Lil' Pup, but it is SO cheery now :) I also keep meaning to bring my princess crown that I got in NY into my office, but I don't want to hurt it by bringing it on the train, but it would be perfect hung on my wall!

Gotta scoot to lunch, have a great day!

Friday...I'm in love...

It's true. I'm in love with a lot of things at the moment.
Like, my husband for one, who no matter HOW ridiculous I am, still smiles and laughs when I make my own version of a joke (which normally isn't funny to anyone but me) and even puts up with it when I am less than nice to him like I was last night. But, things are all back to better and I am very excited about the weekend.
I am in love with the fact that it's Friday and almost lunch time. Double love.
I am in love with the lunch date I have with J and J at the Comcast Center and can't decide if I should get sushi or pizza, but either way it will be a great fun lunch and I can't wait.
I am in love with our weekend plans. Tonight we are going to 5 Guys for burgers, then to Home Depot for staining supplies as the plan is to FINALLY stain the china hutch, yay!! I think it will look SO fantastic when its done and I am so excited to do it.
I am in love with the fact that it's only 3 weeks to Thanksgiving and 7 to Christmas, two of my favorite holidays.
I am in love with the chance to hold our annual Fondue Party that is normally held at a friends house but since their house will be crazy that weekend, I decided to do it in Castle PitBull and I think it will be really fun. I don't see my highschool friends as much as I should or want to for reasons I can't explain (we always have the best intentions) so I am excited for that get-together as well.
Basically, I am just super excited for the weekend and the whole rest of the year.
Oh yeah, and all the stores having crazy sales doesn't hurt either. 50% off at JCrew on top of their sale stuff, what what?? Oh yes, it's true and I LOVE IT.
Plus, the Lilly warehouse sale is in 2 scant weeks and I am starting training for it this weekend as well. Sprints, weight lifting, elbowing...just kidding, it is an awesome sale though and I can't wait to pick up some awesome goodies for me and the other Lilly lovers in my life (Hi Mom and M!)
Have a good weekend Pit fans, hope you are as happy as I am today!
