Oh boy.....

The iPhone is everything I dreamed of and so much more. Adam and I picked up our iPhones this morning and haven't put them down for more than 30 minutes. There are so many cool things you can do with it. I won't bore you with it......but it is so much fun

REALLY Long Day

Today was a such a long day. I left my apartment this morning at 6am and did not return until 7:30 pm. I had management meeting this morning, my monthly visit from my boss (who I adore) and lots of new training on our new payroll and scheduling system. My head is swimming with so much info right now. There isn't room for anymore.

While I was in my meeting, my cell phone rang. Normally I wouldn't answer it in a meeting, but I just felt the reason to answer the phone. It was my mom. She was calling to tell me she has skin cancer. I didn't know what to say. She found a spot on her thumb about 3 months ago. The doctor said to watch it and it would probably go away. It didn't go away. She had a biopsy and it came back positive. The doctors are very optimistic and are removing the spot on Thursday. From what I understand, skin cancer is very treatable, but it is still FREAKING scary.

The part that is the hardest for me is that I am 2 hours away. If I still lived in Elkhart, I would hop in my car to be there for my mom. It kills me that I can't do that. My mom is my best friend and I feel bad that I am not there for her during this tough time. Sure she has my dad and my brother, but they are not me. I love my mom so much and I truly do not know what I would do without her.

I am very happy that Adam will be coming into town tonight. It couldn't have happened at any better time. I know we just got back from vacation, but I still miss him. I just want him to hug me after this LONG day. Tomorrow we are picking up our new phones.

iPhone

Adam and I are the proud new owners of iPhones. We purchased them yesterday. Adam's brother and dad each have one and they are awesome. Adam's number will be the same, but I will have a new number. As soon as I get it, I will pass on the new number. I am so excited. All stores are out of stock. We should have them in 7-10 business days.

Vacation is over

Adam and I arrived home safely around 5pm last night. The drive home was very uneventful. We took turns sleeping and driving. Adam left Chicago this morning to head back to Indiana. It was hard to see him go. We had a whole week of time together that was not consumed with work. It was great. My favorite day was when we went on a winery tour. More about this later.

Vacation

Adam and arrived in Carbondale, Colorado around 7am mountain time on Thursday morning. We left Chicago around 1pm Central time on Thursday. It was a pretty uneventful drive. We stopped to eat lunch and dinner. We tried to stop in Silver Thorn, Colorado around 5am Thursday, but NOTHING was open.

We spent yesterday sleeping and resting. Today Adam and I did some shopping and now he is golfing with his mom. Tonight we are going to 1st Friday in Carbondale. All the stores stay open late and serve wine and appetizers. The company that Adam's brother works for is having a hog roast and free beer. It should be fun.

While we are here we plan on visiting some wineries, tubing/white water rafting, hike a mountain (Adam), visit a spa(Megan), go see The Dark Knight, go for some bike rides, lots of golf(Adam), lots of reading(Megan), and lots of sleeping.
