* I love that our tv guide is jam-packed with holiday movies right now. Both Easter and Christmas films have filled our living room with JOY the last few days!
* No luck on the jetlag front, although some improvement has been made - 2:30 a.m. is my current "fall asleep" time, which is MUCH better than the initial 5 a.m.
* We've been BUSY, BUSY around here! At home we're rearranging furniture, organizing (Phil's fave!), and purging (SHOUT-OUT to IAN & ALEX for the help!). At school we've been putting up bulletin boards and setting up my classroom (SHOUT-OUT to PHILLIP for all HIS HELP!).
* The entire "Kuwait Family" is almost accounted for! The Hussain's arrived this morning (HIP, HIP!) and Emily gets here tomorrow night. I can't wait for all of us to be reunited once again!
* Pregnancy update: I have some serious aversions - meat of any kind, the smell of coffee, strong perfume scents - ICK! I'm doing my best to ignore them, but at gatherings like this afternoon (a coffee date with the fam), it gets a wee bit tricky!!! I've also been experiencing some random nosebleeds, dizziness, and back pain. All minor....and in many instances, FUNNY :)
* Phil's birthday is fast approaching. He is really serious this year about NOT having a birthday dinner/party. He won't even let me have people over for tea and cake! And he also made a firm statement about NOT having an "un-birthday" party either. Where's the fun in this?!!! Perhaps he's saving all of his "birthday energy" for MY PARTY ;) Haha.
* Our first day of school (for staff only) is on Tuesday. Coincidentally, Phil is also having his first basketball practice of the year that afternoon. Keep in mind, the basketball season spans a period of 6 weeks in January/February. That passion we've talked about before? STILL THERE!!!!
Okee dokee....I need to go DO SOMETHING before I end up comatose on the couch! There's mopping to be done in the hallway and LOTS TO ORGANIZE in the apartment (according to a certain SOMEONE).
Hope all of you had a WONDERFUL weekend!!!
XOXO
