Good things happen too!

I figured since the past few blogs haven't been too chipper, I'd write about some fun stuff that's been going on... in sequential order :)


First off, we should probably go back to last week.  I have the greatest friend ever (!!!) who got us tickets to Taylor Swift in concert this June at the Bank Atlantic Center!  I had no idea they were even going on sale until I got my 'morning project' last Thursday to be on TicketMaster at 10am to get the 'best tickets available.'  After that, we proceeded to dance around the office, giggling, as if we were 12-years-old.  Now if June could just hurry up a little bit, that would be perfect :)


The next thing-- #19 in my Bucket List is to attend a Yankee/Red Sox game.  I figured what better way to do it than with one of my dearest sorority sisters--who just so happens to be a Boston native and a die heart Red Sox fan.  This little rivalry has been a thorn in the side of our friendship, pretty much since the day we pledged Tri Delta together, the fall of 2007.  Goodness Jenn, we're old as dirt; some more than others ;)  After having to decided whether to go to this Spring Training game on March 4th or get new Lilly dresses, I became determined to do both.  We ended up getting the tickets for $25 each! Mmhm. We can do both :)  We're both so excited; 17 days & counting.  I get to mark another experience off my bucket list & spend it with my most loved rival ever. 


I got a huge surprise last week through a Facebook message, from my cousin Debbie, saying that her & her daughter Taylor we're coming, from New Jersey, to Orlando this weekend.  I was thrilled that Debbie let me know & said that it was okay that I met them up there.  Not living in Jersey anymore, it's difficult to see my little cousins grow up so quickly and not be able to have a relationship with them.  My biggest fear is all my baby cousins that I adore, will essentially grow up not knowing who I am.  I treasure these moments I do get to spend with my family.  Debbie is also one of my cousins I've looked up to my entire life so getting to catch up with her will be wonderful!  I also found out that last minute another one of my cousins Kate, who is only a year older than me, will also be visiting.  I'm more excited than Taylor would be if she knew she was coming!  That's right, she has no idea that she's coming to Disney!  I wish I could see her face when she finds out; it will surely be priceless.  I was able to work until 5:00pm everyday this week so I can leave at noon on Friday.  I'm heading up to Orlando straight from there :-D


I'm headed to bed early tonight; this week's been exhausting.  Have so much work I need to get done for my Dad.  I'm really trying to get his website together so it can take off.  I'm determined to get it to move up the search results organically.  If you feel the urge, it's http://www.marcoislandluxuryproperties.com/.  The site has a blog too if you'd like to follow all that's going on around the island.


Last, but certainly not least, before I go to bed, I thought I should mention that I had a Valentine's day from a fairytale story.  It was everything a little girl believes that Valentine's day should be like.  Then you grow up & realize it isn't really like that.  At least most of the time it isn't.  It's refreshing to be proven wrong.  So far, it's all been pleasantly refreshing :)


Off to bed.  Glad I finally stopped to realize all the wonderful things happening around me.  To  take time and look at the positives instead of dwelling on this void.  I've decided to find something else to release the built-up competitive drive and fill the void.  Until then, we'll tey and keep it on a positive note.
