back to normal??

I swear... vacations and breaks and extended weekends throw me off track completely!

Back to work after a 5 day mini vaca and Im still trying

to figure out...

Why am I here again?

Do I really have to work?

**UGH**

Anyway, Im not writing in green because Im feeling ill

Im writing in green because it reminds me of *SPRING*

Which by the way officially starts Saturday!

I have missed blogging! Still no wi-Fi in mi Casa

but im workin on it

(damn comcast!)

So I was going to blog about the rest of my Reno trip

but, I think the majority of it

needs to stay in the past! lol

lets just say, Jager on "Empty"...

nuff said!

But I have been doing a lot of thinking,

reflecting

deciding

and

I think I have a new plan.

tho i hate calling it a plan, so ill say

options :)

Im really interested in this new school I've come across

and am thinking....

of how to tweak Chicago and Campbell

and make em work in this economy.

More to come on that in my Pastry Journey Blog :)

So for now, Im trying to Spring Forward.. still lol.

get back on my workout routine and eating right routine

regain focus on self, family and living.

AND most exciting I began reading one of my top listed books!

Im all smiles with it too!

Ever get a book and just KNOW its going to change your life??

yeah... thats what this book feels like

Im still dabbing in my "idiots guide to becoming a successful chef as well"

but I think with the clarification I have in my own mental,

Im back to feeling good bout everything.

****

So lunch is almost here, work has slowed down so I think

ill take some of this slow time and read up!

Reno...

Night one in Reno was interesting to say the least! My first drink in months! Thank God I didnt get drunk!! Had a nice cool buzz most of the evening...

The ride up... a total different story... Rained from the moment I left... then as we approached the Donner Summit, it began to snow... had to pull over and pay a nice chunk of change to get chains so we could ride 30 mph through the slick and snowy roads... just as we are coming out of the summit, SPIN OUT! omg I was so scared! luckily, no one hit us and we just missed the side rail! After being on the road for 6 1/2 hrs... we made it!

We ended up at this club called Aura.. which was cool.. earlier everyone but me gambled since Im in no why shape or form a gambler... so what did i do... drink! lol
Club was cool... it was snowing out and all was right in the night!

Sorry to rush this entry as they are all ready to go and Im sitting here holding everyone up!

Will post more details of todays ventures later this evening as we get ready for another night out in Reno!

X&O's

Im just full of emotions today!

Good thing I have many blogs for my many emotions!

Today started out dragging, I was soooo tired from no sleep. But, cake must be baked.

By the time work came, I was good. Sun shining, clear skies, beautiful day!

Then lunch happened. I'll leave it at that, there's no point in details at this time.

But now, 18 minutes left in the work day, I'm feeling good again. Stress free, happy, eager and ready to start my 4 day weekend!
Got a cake to finish tonight if not tomorrow... pack, clean, relax....

Reno this weekend.. Hopefully Ill post a blog or two!
