How was your weekend? I worked on Friday night, so mine just flew by! I was so happy to be done with the craziness that was last week. I had a program start at work, another one to work Friday night and a speech to give to an important group of people on Thursday afternoon. Public speaking and I don't get along. I did fine though and in the end, preparing better notes and rehearsing in front of Craig countless times got me through the talk with no problems and just a bit of uneasiness in my voice in the beginning.
On Saturday, I did some reading and really cleaned the house in areas I hadn't touched before vacation. It felt good to get it sparkling again.
We ventured out to the mall to look for shoes for Craig and I was on the hunt for a wallet. My coin section is messed up and finding a new one has proven to be quite difficult. Sometimes I really despise shopping when I can't find what I want.
I went to a different mall on Sunday on my way to meet my mom at Costco. I had a lovely lunch at Panera--a Mediterranean veggie sandwich with black bean soup and an apple.
Our plants are growing so well this summer. We even have a little baby pepper growing!
Craig and I did some grocery shopping on Saturday night and saw these wonderful signs throughout the store, but mostly concentrated in the produce section.
I tried out a new product (sort of) on Sunday. Thanks to a word-of-mouth marketing program I am in called BzzAgent, I received Dr. Scholl's For Her High Heel insoles for free. Unfortunately, the design didn't work well with these particular shoes that I wore yesterday, so I removed them before I left the house. I will try them out with another pair of heels later in the week. They felt great, but hit my arch in the wrong spot, I suspect because these heels were so skinny on the bottom.
Do you fear public speaking as much as I do? I am so glad to be done with that experience and I really think it is great practice, but I hope I don't have to public speak for a long time.
