Hi! I’m finally back from a crazy couple of weeks. Nothing
about my life has been based on a routine. Just when I started thinking life
was getting somewhat organized again…
Each day during the last couple of weeks has been filled
with something new and busy. I feel like March is usually filled to the very
top. I’ve been very grateful about everything, but I’m ready for it to slow
down just a bit. As March comes to an end, I’m hoping to get some things
completed around the house and to start on my “to-do list.”
I thought that I would share a few things of what’s been
going on in this small little space of the world, within all of the craziness!
The first week of March was “Hell Week” for the Spring Show.
Which, if you are a follower, you’ve heard me discuss this thing called Spring
Show (I also posted about it last year-link). Spring Show is the performance
that JWC members (voluntary) put on every year. The play is always written by a
special member in our club. In the plays there are dancers and actors/actresses
that practice very hard from the first Saturday of January to the last Saturday
in February. Yes, that’s right… EVERY SATURDAY WE ALL HAVE PRACTICE. The week
before the show we have what’s called “Hell Week”, meaning we have practice
from 5:30 to about 11ish every night. Some nights are shorter than others, but
it all depends on how the choreographers/director feel about that night. We
sell tickets and have our show that Friday and Saturday of “Hell Week.” It’s
always so much fun!!!
On Sunday (yes, the Sunday after Spring Show was over) I had
a work trip to Florida and Georgia. On the plane ride to Florida I watched Me Before You… OH MY GOSH was that a
tear jerker for sure! I was crying while the gentlemen next to me thought, “I
wonder what is going on with this lady.” (haha)
That Monday morning the team (2-4 people from our district
and about 4-6 people from other districts) went to Mayport Naval Station. We
collected the data that we needed then headed back to the hotel to input the
data. Tuesday morning we went back and captured the last building remaining. We
had the best weather in Florida! Wednesday morning we drove 2 hours to Georgia
to collect the data at Fort Stewart Army Base. These nights in Georgia were a
lot longer with more data needing to be inputted. Friday morning we had to up
at 4 AM to catch our flight home.

When I arrived home (FINALLY) I had a million and one things
to get done before heading on the road again. I got to see my best friend and
my beautiful God child.
Friday evening when I arrived, I immediately was handed
Leighton. She has grown so much! Heather and I caught up that evening, loved on
Leighton, watched movies, and snacked.
Saturday morning we just relaxed while Leighton had her feeding then a lovely little nap! We had manicures/pedicures planned for Saturday afternoon. Heather’s work friend Candice met us to join our little pamper party! She recently had a little baby boy - he’s super cute!
That evening we FaceTimed Heather’s parents, so that
they could catch up with me and yes to see that beautiful little girl.
Sunday morning we all enjoyed coffee together while getting
in our last couple of snuggles with Leighton and laughs together before I had
to head home.
What‘s been going on with y’all lately?! Any fun trips
coming up for the Spring time? J
Hope you all have a great weekend!
