Busy busy busy

Wow life has been moving faster than usual lately.

Just a little catch up.

This past weekend was full of spontaneous fun! On Friday night, after one of the busiest weeks at work for both of us, we were really needing a low key night. And that we had. Chad and Jamie weren't up to anything either, so they came over to Corey's house and we made Juicy Lucy's (a veggie burger for Jamie) on the grill! I LOVED my first burger on the grill of the spring season. We had a cocktail and just laid low after dinner. I was in bed by 11:30 which felt amazing! Saturday night, after an intense workout and much needed laying around, we got together with Corey's work friend, Cameron, and his wife, Leah. We went to Canterbury Casino. Corey and I played BlackJack and ended up coming out ahead $80! Woo hoo!!! Sunday was spent catching up with friends for me. I had breakfast with Briana and went shopping/ ran errands with Sarah and Shannon in the afternoon. So much fun! I had a great weekend before another overwhelmingly busy week at work.

Speaking of work. I really don't want to let work control my life. I don't feel I get paid enough to have that happen to me. A coworker of mine, who is on my team with me, has decided to move on to bigger and better things and put her two weeks notice in a week and a half ago. That leaves her with 3 more days left at our company and there is still so much to do before she leaves! I have taken over on her stuff on her 'desk/ plate' and I still have all my work I had before I took her stuff. This leaves me with two full time jobs to do and only 40 hours to do it. With that said, our client and my boss have decided to authorize overtime for me. I am pretty excited for the larger pay checks to come, but I must say working 10 hours today when I am used to 8 was very tiring. I wonder how I will ever handle a real stressful job that is more than 40 hours/ week. I found myself thinking all day about how nice it would be to just win the lottery so I can volunteer and do something more meaningful with my life.
