My week started out great! Sunday was awesome and Monday I didn't have to go to work! Even though I love work, I like long weekends too. Now to the heart break, I came to work Tuesday to find Petunia had died! Apparently she decided that she couldn't last 3 days without water. Psh. What a drama queen! :) I know everyone back East has had awful weather, which makes me sad for all my friends out there. But, not to brag to them, it has been AMAZING weather out here *knocks on wood* It got up to almost 60 twice this week, and it's February... Hey, I am NOT complaining. What I am complaining about is the fact that it's going to dump snow on us starting the end of next week. Guess which day it will be the coldest and snowing the worst (or so the weather channel says.) On my birthday. Without fail it has either snowed on, or had snow on the ground for my birthday every year that I can remember. Crazy funny how stuff like that happens. Which brings me to my next long paragraph. 
This Sunday my little brother, who is currently taller than me, turns 24. My brother Daniel and I are 6 days shy of two years apart. It has been a lot of fun to be able to grow up with him. I remember a lot of our birthday parties growing up. Since we had basically the same friends, and were so close in birthdates we usually shared parties when we were kids. Which I abolutely loved. Sometimes I liked to pretend we had the same birthday. I know that's insanely cheesy, but who cares. Anyway back to the parties. My Mom and Dad are really clever, and all our birthdays had super fun themed parties, complete with games or other activities, and of course fun cakes which I think for the most part my mom made (Or so I recall, at least as much of my childhood I remember.) My favorite themed party we did was a backwards party. Everyone who came, as well as my parents (if i remember correctly) and Daniel and I wore our clothes facing the wrong way. I thought it was such a silly idea and loved it. We had so much fun that year. Daniel and I have lucked out at sharing a lot of awesome experiences and it has helped us grow closer together. Which I'm very grateful for.
So, this week I've been watching one of my best friends kids while she is back East with her family. Her Husband works gaveyards and leaves at 5:30 most days, so he can't watch the kids at night. Let me just say, these kids are amazing, VERY well behaved, but being an insta makeshift mom of 4 has been an interesting experience for me. Mainly because I can't cook. Well not well at least Haha! It's been a fun experience. Plus, it's taught me that I could succesfully be a mom of 4, and not starve my children in the process. Now I'm less afraid :) Thanks for the awesome experience Becky! I promise you will get your kids back in one piece... Mostly ;P
Well my friends, I really don't have much more to say today. Clary and Becky's dog Lucy are still working on not fighting anymore. Small dogs fighting for dominance... Lets just say it's entertaining that's for sure. Well, anyway that's it for me TTFN, Ta ta for now.
