Pedis, Facials and Movies
I never go to the movies. Typically 1 per year. Maybe. One year Lane and I saw 4 movies. It was weird for us.
So far this year I have seen 2. I don't see anything on the horizon that catches my fancy, so that might be it for 2015.
Lane and I went to see McFarland USA on a Saturday evening. It was good, I recommend it highly. But its . . . you know . . . a typical predictable, feel-good type movie. And that's just the kind of movie I like. I don't watch the super hero stuff. I must be too stupid to follow it or something because I just get confused with too much going on. I'm pretty simple-minded about most things, particularly movies.
Then the next Tuesday I took Addie to see Cinderella. I was wise to leave Lane at home, because he would have HATED it. But I loved it. It was so well done, and I liked how they included small tributes to the Disney animated version, rather than pretend that classic doesn't exist.
Including Cinderella, I've had quite a girly month. Taylor was home for a few days for her spring break, so we went for Pedis. I haven't had one in a long time, and apparently she never has. She went off-character even and opted for the glitter toes. It was a fun afternoon and now my toes make me smile.
Not to leave out Addie, she and I went for facials later that week. I haven't had a full facial before, just a mini-facial. And believe me, what a treat that was! I could do that all the time!
And so continuing on with my good March karma that seems to be going, Taylor has decided to transfer to UVU this fall. So she will be come home to live for the summer and then (hopefully) she'll move in with her cousin Stephanie and go to school. I'm so excited to have her so much closer than Logan! Hoping all the small details will fall into place, and that she will be able to find an affordable car for her since hers (apparently named Eileen, as in "Come On Eileen!") has died a very sad and tragic death (transmission).
And finally, today I printed off my cruise documents for Cruise 2015 which is coming up shortly. So excited! We are doing a 7-day for the first time ever and I'm beyond excited for the time away from home and work and all the stuff that comes with home and work . . .
Jack's drumline is in its final stages, so we'll be able to see him now and again. He's like a boarder who just rents a room and comes and goes in the dark hours of the morning and night. He and his friend scored a 95 on the FCCLA project this year, but sadly that wasn't good enough to qualify for Nationals. Apparently for the type of project they did, only the top 15 in the country qualify for Nationals, instead of taking the top scorer in each state. I was bummed out because its in Washington DC and I really wanted to go. He's bummed too, I'm sure, but again it's really all about me.
