Surrounded

Neither a big ole ranty blog nor a pictoral adventure could cover my weekend.

I found out midweek that I'd be visited by a friend from not so far away.. and hoped against hopes that it was true.. but also knew I couldn't put too much of my heart into the spirit of the idea.

Sometimes the idea and intent is there but the follow through falls short. And far too often when this happens you end up with a cranky Nikki and no one and nothing can make me feel better. Add to this that I am on a 24 hour notice of strike duty and you have me on pins and needles and not in a good way.

Happily the fates were smiling upon us. My guest was full of quiet charm and gave me just enough giggles to avoid the tense not so fun Nikki you guys have been blessed with lately.

And on Saturday nite, surrounded by some of my most loved people I had a lovely pizza adventure and a brief outing in a movie theater that was quickly ended due to the scariness and the fact that I am the eldest of a bunch of chickens. We don't need you to give us nightmares... our imaginations are enough to do that!

And sometime around midnite I found out nothing had happened in my world "delivered".. so I went to bed.
And nothing's happened since. Tho if I miss my Easter I'll be ticked.. so best let there be no announcement til after Sunday.. Hell I'm even planning on goin to church!

So.. surround yourself with love. Happiness in the weather and people and places that you love.. bake a batch of something yummy and enjoy your world.. the best is yet to come!
