Hello, Friday! You are my favorite day of the week, except for maybe Saturday. I always
pop out of bed with a little more spunk on Fridays, knowing it's my last day of work for
the week. I have more energy, a more positive spirit, knowing that whatever bullshit
comes my way, who cares? The weekend is almost here! Sometimes, we make big plans
and look forward to them all week. Other times, we just coast into the weekend with
the excitement of the unknown looming over us. Let's sleep in, eat breakfast for dinner, go on
a date! It's how I get through my work week: the stress and exhaustion and missing my
family. I work for the weekend.

This week:
1. I went to my first dance class in, well, I'm embarrassed to admit how long it's been. It was
a jazz/hip hop class and I actually kept up without completely humiliating myself. My
dance teacher later told me that she couldn't tell if I was enjoying myself or not because I
was wearing my "poker face". Oh no, I was having fun. I was just wearing my poker face
to disguise the fact that I was completely out of breathe and every muscle in my body
was screaming "What the heck are you doing?!!". It was exhilarating though, to move
my body to the beat again. I'll be back next week, poker face and all.

2. Shawn cooked breakfast for the whole family, all by himself. He surprised me one
morning with eggs, bacon, and biscuits and the biggest smile on his face. Before the
accident, this was a regular occurrence in our household as my husband is a very talented
cook and loves to be in the kitchen. This was the first time he's braved a meal all by
himself, finding new ways to make things work when his left hand doesn't give him all that
he needs. We gave him a million kisses and words of encouragement and ate every single
bite. Another milestone.

3. Our satellite TV took a nose dive this week and completely shut down on us. A brand
new modem was installed and Shawn had everything up and running in no time. But, he
had bad news for me: when our old unit broke, so did the DVR. Meaning every single thing
I had stored on the DVR was deleted. Forever. Is it sad to admit that I wanted to cry? I had
so many VERY important programs to watch on that damn DVR, gripping tales such
as "Project Runway All Stars", "The Bachelor" and "Grey's Anatomy". I had to get over
it, though, and move on like a big girl. I consoled myself by spending the next half
hour programming our brand spanking new DVR, filling it with lots of new trashy
favs. Technology can by a biotch sometimes.
