I don’t normally wear anything with polka dots but I do love this dress, it’s cute and has ruffles.  I love ruffles.

I’m being a bum and sitting in the recliner watching TV after work tonight.

Things have been going well since moving, Tom and I are getting settled in and I’m getting used to Raleigh. Work is going well, I’ve been in training at my new job for  4 days now, after 3 weeks we start taking calls.  I’ve got to start getting more sleep though, lol. I’ve been staying up way too late watching Heroes with Tom.

I took this one yesterday with Tom’s camera while I was downtown. Can I just say how hard it is to take a picture of yourself while holding a heavy Canon DSLR in one hand while trying not to drop it?

and since I was busy unpacking and forgot to do it, I”ll also make this a Things I Love Tuesday post:

Number one… Moving to Raleigh! I can’t say enough how excited and happy I am to be here permanently with Tom. I’m finding new things I love about Raleigh every day and am looking forward to finding more.

Also: playing and winning the lottery ($4 woo!), exploring downtown Raleigh on my own, apple crumb cheesecake, meeting new people, seeing interesting artwork, rereading The Ordinary Princess (my favorite childhood book), getting myself un-lost after forgetting where I parked, when my pets make me laugh, and hopefully getting to see some of the Azalea Festival this weekend.

Took a quick break from packing earlier today and sat on my front porch to eat lunch and enjoy the sunshine.

I’ve been packing like crazy the last couple days, the movers are coming on Monday and I’ve still got a ton of stuff that needs to be boxed up.

boxes and more boxes

I’m going to start bloging every day again for the month of April, I’d like to chronicle my move to Raleigh.  So far I’m sick of packing, lol, but the moving pains should be over soon.

I wore my new dress today, I wish I had gotten a better picture of it. I love that its finally warm enough to wear it. Wearing pretty skirts and dresses makes me happy. =)

Tom and I got dressed up and went out for a date night last night at Tony’s Oyster Bar. We looked so good I made him take a picture of us, lol.  We used the self timer on my camera so I figure it counts as a self portrait.

Tonight I was going through my pictures and saw a few I’d taken with friends over the years, so I thought I’d include them in my SPT post.

Kelly and I about 3 years ago

Jackie and I the day she took me ice skating

At Charlie Brown’s with Dave

Tom and I beside Lake Johnson

This past summer, at the mall with Jackie after a bunch of us went to the imax theater

Happy Thursday everyone.

I snapped a quick picture on my lunch break, today was kind of crazy and rough but I survived. I think the only thing that kept me from losing my mind at work was the fact that I’m off for a WHOLE WEEK next week. Thank Goodness! I’ll be in Raleigh for most of that time taking a much needed break from reality.

I thought I’d throw in a pic of my new favorite necklace, I got it last month at Target. It’s simple and delicate, I love jewelry like this.

Today I didn’t get around to taking a self portrait so I decided to do a mini self portrait timeline, showing some of the ones I’ve taken over the last few years. The camera I’m holding in the older pictures was my first digital camera, a 3.0 megapixel canon.

It’s interesting to see how I’ve changed over the years, the first picture is probably from around 2002 and the last from about 2 weeks ago.

Went over to Jackie’s for a girl’s night in. We watched movies and gave ourselves pedicures.

Red toenail polish is always my favorite.

We watched Couples Retreat, it had some funny parts, overall an ok movie. It was fun getting together and hanging out with just girls, I hadn’t done that in a while.
