Week in Review

I had a mixed weekend. I figured I was going to be super busy because I had a lot of things going on at once. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been. I had one cancellation so thankfully it freed me up somewhat.

My mom was in town and I know it seems like she's always here but she hasn't been here to see me since March. I looked forward to seeing her. I knew she wasn't staying the full weekend because the flights back home were all full, so she left earlier than she would normally have... short but sweet trip.

The night she left though, all hell seemed to have broken loose. Last weekend I emailed a Girlfriend (yes our cyber group is called Girlfriends) of mine to wish her happy birthday and to catch up with her and she didn't respond (very unlike her). Apparently people in the group had been trying to reach her as she hadn't been in contact with anyone. Well thankfully someone took the initiative and called her cell and when they didn't get her they called her home phone...her parents answered and explained that she died a few weeks ago. I was in shock. Serious shock. No-one knew that she was that sick... but apparently she was.. and she died. Shock I tell you.
RIP- Miriam Lee Hilton.

I also got to hook up with my IRL girlfriends and we went to an annual fashion show that we usually attend and had dinner afterwards. The show was great and had a lot less filler than previous years. Then of course the after dinner conversation was good. I tell you, always a good time meeting up with old friends and I think it's important as well.

Finally picked up some books that the library was holding for me... so between that and the regular stuff I think I'm going to be a bit busy.

Also, I don't know why this bothers me as much as it did... I hate when people are rude to the help. Hate it! I think having lived in America and realizing that we're pretty much all or mostly on a level playing field and people can go from top to bottom and bottom to top very quickly... that it's in your best interest to live good with people. I saw an entry on twitter no less that was of the "does she know who I am" type. Annoyed.the.shit.out.of.me!!!
