Florida, Kareoke, Painting
So I have returned from my first staff meeting. We all met in North Beach, Miami. It was a great time, I definitely learned alot, and enjoyed meeting everyone on my team. My hotel room was PHENOMINAL! It was like an apartment! I had a full kitchen, Living room/dining room area, bedroom w/ king size bed, and a huge bathroom with Jacuzzi tub and seperate shower! Ohh and a little deck that looked on both the beach, the city, and construction of the building next to it ;-)
Anyway, I made it home late Friday night...like 12ish. I had two really nice flights though because on a whim, I decided to upgrade to business class for the flights since it was REALLY CHEAP!! So, flying from Atlanta to Rochester, I had a nice glass of wine, and then fell asleep for the rest of the ride. It was such a good sleep that I didn't wake up until the plane landed in Rochester. I love sleeping like that on the plane.
So, we didn't do much Friday night other than go to bed and watch one episode of House M.D. Saturday I went to my sisters and watched "Hotel Rowanda" OMG. After crying my eyes out, I went home to hang out with Peakers, and then we had dinner with Chrissy and Jake. Afterwards, they came over and we drank wine and played Balderdash. To make the game more fun and interesting ;-) we broke out the Kareoke Machine. So, we all took turns being the announcer, and playing music while people answered the questions :-) It turned out to be a really fun, and hilarious time. I did a solo of a Frank Sanatra song, which was so horrible, that everyone banned me from Kareoke...that is after Jake took a video ;-).
So yesterday I decided that I needed to be productive on the house. Seymen gave me an edict that I can't decorate/paint the bathroom until we finish the front entrance way...SOOOOO, I pulled out the ladders, my buckets, and painting clothes and got to work. I finished removing the wallpaper paste from two walls, I spackeled every little dent/hole in the walls, and then I primed the walls with Pink :-) in preparation for our RED paint :-) Tonight after work, I will be painting the trim...priming with Kilz and then painting it white. My hope is that I can have the entire hallway painted before Friday :-) We'll see if that happens :-)
