relaxing!

i had a long day at work...really long. i stood staring at a computer screen inputting scripts for like 6.5 hours of my 8 hour shift. i got off and my feet hurt...and i had a killer headache.

that wonderful little package (pictured above) is just what i needed to see after the longest day of work in quite a while! a super huge thank you (and HUGS!) to my momma swap partner Nikki who blogs over at If I could only find the words. she encouraged me to make time for myself, and sent me a Glamour magazine and goodies for a mini pedicure. seriously love that girl.

after work i raced home to grab the gifts i'd picked up for my BFF Jen (who gave birth to her 4th baby, Isaiah Stephen, last night) then drove 40 minutes up to the hospital.

((is that not the most adorable grumpy face you've ever seen?!))

i got to snuggle my newest "nephew" for an hour whilst Jen and Anthony ate dinner. then i handed him off to their newest visitor and headed home. (aunt kristance will see you again soon, little man!)

i got home a little while ago, and i'm about ready to indulge in some "me time" courtesy of Nikki and listen to my Ryan Adams album that also came in the mail today.

life is good, y'all.
