Looking backward...but only to move forward THREE

Wow! 3 new faces! Thanks so much for the visits, folks. I've been trying to get out and about more on the BB (with low success!) so I'm glad to hear that folks are getting benefit from my trip down memory lane.

*************
I was supposed to have school last night but an impending snow storm made me wary of making the trip. I emailed my teacher that I wasn't coming and then felt mildly concerned for the rest of the night about "skipping"! Turns out that he had cancelled class but had emailed the WRONG class to tell them that. DUH!!!

Anyway, the unexpectedly free night combined with h's great job news of the day called for a celebration. We went to a great restaurant near our house (literally, 2 minutes away) and had great drinks and appetizers. h seemed really excited about his new summer job AND about us. He talked a lot about stuff we're going to do during the summer, etc. We also talked a little about some larger scale trips -- England or Germany or Italy, etc. I like it!

He was really positively reinforcing about my support of him. I'm glad he can feel it.

We had great food and a very relaxing time. We went to bed early and woke up to about 8 more inches of snow. Sigh. I slept in and then we shoveled. The drive in to work was fine and today has been mellow. Glad for that.

I took a vacation day for tomorrow because I need new tires (a little late but maybe it will signal the end of all this snow if I actually prep for it!). h and I are going to a play tomorrow night so after getting the tires and maybe doing some shopping, I'll go into town to meet him. I plan to not spend one second thinking about work.
