Life's A Beach!

To say that today is an improvement from yesterday is something of an understatement.
I feel... exponentially better than I did this time 24 hours ago. Though still stuffy, my head has stopped pounding and I can actually breathe through my nose today. Wiiiiin!

To celebrate, we got a big job order at work today, thanks to Nikki, who is rockin' this boat and turning my day back into what I'm used to: a challenge! [in a good way!!] In staffing, your sales team is a building block that you must have, and to say that Nikki is solid in that regard is barely scratching the surface. We're on a roll!

Oh, and Nancy surprised us with some love from her most recent trip to Florida. It's small, but adorable and oh-so-Nancy of her. I love it.

{a tiny} day at the beach {for everyday here}! | thanks, nancy!

^ Each of us got one; Elisa and I have started the countdown to the minute when one of us knocks this thing over and sand goes everywhere. We're both clutzy often enough - me way moreso than her - I'm preparing myself now to clean up a mess. Haha. It's cute though, and completes the little paradise in the corner of my desk: Sydni, Rob & me, my orchid, a thank you card from Elisa, owl from Ali and now my little beach. It's the small things (:

After work = volleyball!
We're out, after falling just short of victory in tournaments, but I'm not that mad about it. It was our first season together, and again - Keif's never played volleyball before this, Beth hasn't played since high school, and Kalyn & I haven't played on a league together in 3 years. All things considered, we did just fine, so we hopped across the street post-game for dinner at Fifty West. It was... a unique experience.

Not a bad way to end a Wednesday. Now all I have to do is get the lawn mowed and pick up a piece of dry-cleaning that's been sitting there for nearly a month because I'm too lazy to stop and get it.. haha. {First world problems} Is it bad that I've already started anticipating my next weekend trip to IL.. at the end of the month? Hah.. oh boy.

Thank goodness for 4-day weeks, yeah?
