Post Weekend Blues

Well, my sister and brother came in town Friday! We had a WONDERFUL time!! Went out for Mexican food with friends Friday night, went shopping on Saturday, movie on Sunday, etc. We saw "The Last King of Scotland". I highly recommend this movie! It was unbelievable! Forest Whitaker is phenomenal!! Way to represent East Texas!! woohoo!!
Anyway, so now I have the post weekend blues. I took Sarah and JD to the airport this morning and have been moping around ever since. Work is fairly slow today, so that makes things even more blah.
On a more upbeat note... I got a laptop this weekend! I bought a new white Macbook and I love it! It has a camera built in, so I can now talk to my niece and nephew online via camera phone. It is so much fun!! I will say that it will take me a while to get used to the Mac since things are set up very differently. But overall, it is much faster and much more up-to-date than anything else. Love it!

School Out for Tornado Warning?

What on earth? On my lunch break, I headed over to the vet to buy Max some shampoo. While I was there, I overheard a lady say that they let out schools due to a tornado warning. What in the world? The state of Tennessee never ceases to amaze me. I guess living in Texas for so long, I got used to the tornado sirens going off all the time - and we'd all just cover our heads and wait it out. I cannot imagine sending a bunch of kids on a school bus with a possible tornado out there somewhere! I swear, this state lets kids out of school if it rains hard! Oh well.. lucky kids!

Tomorrow is the day!! My sister and brother are coming to visit! Lots of fun!! YAY!! Gosh, I hope the "tornado" is gone by then. ha!
