WBW!

Yes, I know this was just last year...but... since this photo from left to right..

Sara had Landen! Brooke's shower for Baby K is in two weeks! Kat's baby, Nate turned one! I cut my hair. (LOL). And Jenny had Maddox. Yes, those in fact are some changes in a nutshell. I know more has changed than that, but I just thought it was funny that I'm the only baby-free-zone in this particular photo. It made me laugh. :) My friends have been blessed with such beautiful babies and it's amazing how much has changed in just a year! It makes me smile. :) And their babies might not know it, but I've got their little baby backs 200%...Aunt Jax loves those little peeps like I love the peeps in this photo. :)
Sooo today was long. I started with a meeting at a local company where I ran into my butts n gutts teacher.. lol! It was one of those awkward "uh, I promise I'll come to class again someday" moments... She's cool, though and said it's like running into the priest after you skipped church.. People avoid her.. Comedy. Anyway, from that large presentation, I headed to the office for some phone calls. Joined a small group headed to lunch downtown-Mmmmm Billy's. :)

As I was sitting there, Eric walked past with his coworker! ha! So funny, awesome and also bizarre to run into each other at lunch now! I think my coworkers were surprised I didn't run after him like "hey! Hey!!!! lookie! I'm here!" I was in heels, people. I called him instead from where I was sitting. We were able to catch up and say hey. Cute. Me likes. :)

Had to deliver some packets after lunch. One address was wrong so I walked into the wrong business (haha). One didn't have a front desk...so I walked aimlessly through the office til I found someone. *awkward* Whatever, I went with it! One is in bankruptcy and humored me but then took the packet and said "Good luck with the campaign!" (that's code for 'we're not donating' I think). Two more were SUPER receptive!!! YAY! However, one of those has experienced some layoffs...sad.. So, I dont know if people are in a really giving spirit. I honestly didn't realize how many layoffs Tulsa had experienced with this economy.. But I dont wanna be a downer here.

Anyhoo, on another note.. Eric's bday gifts are WRAPPED and ready!!! I'm so excited! I am horrible with waiting to give someone a gift. I want to just give it to them when I buy it!! I can wait til Sunday, though! (I'm repeating that in my head.. I can wait. I can wait.). :) Thanks so so so much one more time for the awesomesauce cooking advice!!!! I'm so excited (and now likely wont blow up the kitchen thanks to you guys. seriously. It was a possibility.). Have a great Wednesday, peeps!

I ran into Bryan at Billy's once this summer and got the "Wait, what are you doing here?" look. I told him that downtown wasn't solely his anymore.

Yes, a lot has changed in a year. Goodness me. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to raise money in this economy. The LA soup kitchens have run out of funding to serve soup to the homeless... so.... if that tells you anything. Geez. Sending good thoughts your way! xo
