Beginning of 2011 and Pictures

Yeah, so more than another month has come and gone. I have got to get with it, but it could be worse. I am getting used to a new way of life. My schedule is much different, and I absolutely LOVE it! I truly do.

My work has changed. I am leading three meetings right now, and I am currently in charge of our territory's newsletter. So far, I have done three newsletters, and my boss is ecstatic. That makes me really happy. We had a leader conference call Thursday night, and I had just come back from filling in for a meeting. Earlier in the day Joe and I were down the river looking for new carpet to replace the carpet in our basement. (Our beautifully finished basement that my husband, dad and father-in-law finished flooded the morning before the Super Bowl, and we were supposed to be hosting the party. Let's just say we had to shift the party to my parents' house. It was interesting.) As I was saying, my boss asked me to call her after the conference call to talk. When I called her, she asked me to become a leader mentor! That was such an honor. I am so excited.

Instead of recapping so much that was missed, I may just mention some things as I blog. I will, however, say that I had a wonderful birthday. Last month was my birthday, and Joe took me and my parents out to eat. Then, the next night my sister organized for my parents, Joe and a bunch of friends to go to a bar in Pittsburgh called Sing Sing, a dueling piano bar. The next day Joe threw me a party during the NFL playoff game. We are die hard Steelers fans and loved watching the Steelers whoop on the Ravens. Joe served pizza, wings, salad, snacks, chili dip,cake and ice cream. It was phenomenal! Great party and football food. Yes, I am spoiled, and my birthday lasts for days, lol. It was a great birthday, and so far, 2011 has been awesome! I can;t wait to see what the rest of this year is going to bring.

Again, I am going to try to get better about blogging!

Here are a few pictures of the beginning of 2011.

As if the night wasn't late enough, we continue with games!

At Sing Sing, I got called on the stage. It ended with Joe, me and another couple dancing to "Baby's Got Back."

Kayla and I toasting!

Tom Selleck and I when everyone was singing to me the next day! Of course it was during halftime.
