Dawn's Digression.

Crap, I am whipped these days. Vacation was wonderful. Both of us were on our best behavior. And I'm not sure either of us was trying particularly hard to be good. Don't they say the first couple of years of marriage are the hardest? I know we're not married, but I assume living together is included in that package of 'things that are hard'. I'm getting used to her. She seems to be getting used to me. The animals are all co-mingling, and I re-Chi-ed (that's not a word) the living room last night. I feel peace for the first time in quite awhile. I feel good. (Well, except for my whole diet going out the window -- more on that later.)
We should get our pictures back on Saturday or Sunday, and it seems as though I will be having some downtime this weekend. Michele is preparing for my birthday on Monday, and says she will be out shopping. This means I can blog.
We had my birthday celebration at work today. The girls did a great job. We had quesadillas from Baja Fresh and they gave me Pay It Forward. I can't wait to watch it. I love that movie.
