I started my week long tour heading to Atlanta to visit Julie and her family. Her daughter Vivien is 18 months old and I really enjoyed spending time with her. I was lucky enough to get to babysit her while Julie was at work and we had the best time reading books and playing. She is so smart and has just the cutest personality. I always enjoy staying with the Blonk family because I feel like one of the family. I hope to visit again soon because Vivy is just changing too much too quickly.
The second stop was Orlando to visit my cousin Colleen. I had a lot of trouble catching a flight because it was a holiday weekend and everyone else decided to take a getaway to Florida for the Daytona 500. I eventually had to fly to Philly and then to Orlando and arrived 12 hrs later. Unfortunately I missed Friday's Happy hour, but was glad to visit my cousin. The weekend consisted of a trip to see "He's just not that into you" (LOVED IT SEE PREVIOUS POST), Blue Man Group (SO GOOD), and a bit of shopping.
I left Orlando on Monday morning and since the flights were all full, I decided to fly to DC and visit Al. He was off Monday so I managed to convince him to take me to an H&M so I could use the gift card he gave me for Christmas. I love this store and manage to score some great new stuff. We went to dinner in downtown Alexandria and had some ok food (Al liked his, mine stunk). It was a quick visit, but nice to catch up with Al whom I hadn't seen since Christmas.
I flew home Tuesday morning and had dinner with some of my DZ friends at California Pizza Kitchen.
The trip went by supper quick, but I really enjoyed seeing everyone and taking some time off of both jobs. I really needed a little boost to keep me motivated in juggling both jobs.
