What an amazing weekend. I flew into TX Thursday evening and spent 4 days in the bask of warmth! Flowers everywhere. In TX, the state flower is the Blue Bell. It is a wild flower that grows all over the place. It is illegal to mow them down until they are done blooming! So you get to see seas of bluish purple everywhere. It is sooo pretty. They also have prim roses growing wild all over too.
Went to the Fort Worth zoo on Friday. Spent over 4 hours walking through there. It was pretty amazing. Makes me want to go to Como Park again soon so I can compare the two. I haven't been to Como since my kids were little and I understand that they have made a lot of upgrades. It was fun to go with someone who was just as excited as I was to walk around and look at things. Seeing his excitement being able to share this place with me was wonderful. (I know gushy again, can't help it)
Saturday evening went to the Kenny Chesney concert. It was a blast. People everywhere by 1:00 pm and partying like fools. Concert started at 4:30 with Uncle Kracker and went on to the Zach Brown band and finished off with Kenny. Kid Rock came and sang with Kenny also. It was sooo much fun! I really partied more than my body was used to... needless to say HANGOVER started early that evening. By morning I was good. Let's just say this: Glad I bought a bucket of popcorn so I had a bucket for my ride home... It will be a long time before I party like that again. Don't know if I can handle that...lol.
Sunday I made Brian a German Chocolate birthday cake, with his favorite frosting (coconut, carmel, pecan). I even sang Happy Birthday to him. If anyone knows my singing skills this was kinda a big thing. I can sing in groups, with the radio, etc... but solos are not my forte`. All was appreciated. I wanted to make him his favorite meal of fried chicken and mashed potatoes, but neither of us was up to eating a big meal... (remember we partied all night before for his birthday). I will make it for him when I go see him again.
Only 18 days left til I take my last final for school this semester!! Then I am hoping and praying (and you can help by doing the same if you are reading this) that Brian will have found work, and I can move down there for the summer. He has a 14 month lease (no potential subleasers) so he cannot move up here. Not sure where we would live up here anyway. I live with my sister and her husband, which has been a blessing for me and school. They have been wonderful. I don't think they would want to have him move in with me. Still trying to see what plans God has for me so I can move forward with a positive planned outlook instead of a "fly by the seat of my pants" outlook. It has been a learning experience for me. All I know is I would really like to see him A LOT more. But if good things come to those who wait... well then I should get this soon enough.
Well off to study and then to bed. I have a presentation to give tomorrow morning, then a test, then an online test for med-term, then it is off to the hospital in St. Cloud to see who my patient will be on Tuesday. Do my clinical prep, then hopefully go to bed early. Tuesday's are killer- clinicals at the hospital 6:45-2 pm then off to the Best Western in Monticello to work 3-11pm. Love my Wednesday's off!!
