Finally it’s here.. my week vacation! Yesterday I had to
work my last shift and now it’s time for a whole week of reading, blogging, spending
time with the people I love and just doing what I love. Sigh.. This is my first
vacation since September last year and it was soooo needed. I have a lot of
reading and blogging planned and I’m just super excited.

Because this week was the last one before my vacation, it
was fun but also hard because every workday seemed to take twice as long. On
Monday I had a day off and I finally saw ‘The Revenant’. Although it definitely
wasn’t a feel-good-movie I really enjoyed it. If you ask me, Mr. DiCaprio
definitely deserved that Oscar. On Tuesday I had to work but in the middle of
the night I felt really sick all of sudden and fell on our kitchen floor. I
bumped my head pretty hard and was not feeling well when I woke up. So I stayed
home and thankfully I felt much better in the afternoon. It was really weird.. Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday I had to work, so not much was happening on those days except
for off course Thursday..

Thursday it was my Two Year Blogiversary!! Yeahhhh!!
Super exciting. Two years of blogging.. Time has flown by and I had such an
awesome journey. Blogging has brought me so much and I’m really excited to have
many more blogging years. If you want to join the celebration and enter the

Today, Saturday, I’m going to see ‘The Choice’. I love
Nicholas Sparks movies so I’m really excited about this one. It’s also probably
the last change I get to see it before it’s out of the theaters. So.. it’s
about time! LOL!

Tonight my boyfriend and I are going out for dinner in
our favorite restaurant. After working the last two nights I can’t wait to have
an evening just for ourselves.

Happy belated blogiversary and have a wonderful wonderful week off doing all of the things you enjoy!
I've actually got The Choice (the book) but am afraid I've shelved it to get to when I have more time (as it's been out for quite a while now)….
Thanks Deborah. I loved the movie. I haven't read the book but I definitely want it after seeing the movie.
Thanks for stopping by!
Congrats on two years of blogging! Isn't it the best journey ever? Enjoy your vacation…it should be a time of really "recharging your batteries," so to speak.
I have enjoyed some Sparks movies, too, but haven't yet seen The Choice.

Thank you Greg! I definitely needed a little break after the last couple of weeks. I think I might have fallen because I was just so tired. I don't really know how to take things slow.. 😀

Oh no, I'm sorry about your fall. I'm glad nothing too bad happened and you are feeling well. Hope you had a nice night out! Sometimes you just need that. YAY for a week off too – hope you get lots of reading and blogging, among other things, in this week. 🙂
