Whirlwind

Forecast for today?  Tornadoes, damaging thunderstorm winds, large hail, frequent lightning, and very heavy downpours are all possible.  Seriously.

Sorry I haven't been posting much lately.  I have been a crazy mad woman, haha.  Work has been so BUSY!!!  + end of the month stuff. 

Mike came this past weekend (well last Wed.).  We had a GREAT time!!! 

• Thursday at lunch, we went to the Memphis Botanic Garden to the African Violet Show.  I will show you pics of the ones I got soon.  After work, we were treated to a  "togetherness massage" at Natural Body Spa + Shoppe.  It was so relaxing + we really enjoyed it.  I really liked the spa + shoppe (I have never been there before).  After the massage, we went to my parents house to watch the Memphis game.  I made dinner:   Rachael Ray's Vicki's Favorite Chicken with Grapes and Couscous and Strawberry Shortcake.  It was really good.  My first time making it too.  I saw it in her Classic 30-Minute Meals: The All-Occasion Cookbook .  Memphis lost :(  BAD!!!
• Friday Mike got to watch UNC practice while I worked with Dad + Jeff (my bro).  Then we went to the South Regional Tournament @ The Fed-Ex Forum:  Oklahoma vs. Syracuse and UNCvs. Gonzaga.  We (Dad, Jeff, Mike + I) ate dinner at Hard Rock (Mike's first time, haha).    
• SaturdayWe went to Jackson.  I wanted Mike to meet my Grandma + Grandpa.  We stopped by somewhere secretive first (hehe).  Then we had lunch at Dumplins.  After that, We went to my grandparents house.  We ate dessert over there, and then went to my grandpa's lake to look at his ducks.  We went to my brother's house so Mike could meet my nephews + niece.  They really like Mike :]  We played basketball.  On the way home we stopped at Fox Ridge Pizza.
• Sundaywe ate lunch @ Mike's fav. place- Moe's.  Then we met up with Dad + Jeff to go to the UNC vs. Oklahoma game.  UNC won, and we were all stoked.  That night Mike + I ate at the Commisary BBQ (right by my condo).     

• Monday morning we met my mom for breakfast @ the West Street Diner.  Mike + I walked around the condo + sat by the pond before I took him to the airport :[ 

 

Coming home to an empty condo is always sad when Mike leaves.  My bedroom looks sad without Mike's bag + pile of clothes in the corner :[  But he always sprays Boo-boo (his teddy he gave me) with his cologne so the room still smells of Mike :]

I hope everyone had a Happy April Fool's Day!  I didn't get pranked all day surprisingly.
