I am beginning to think I might have that seasonal affective disorder. I was depressed all winter but just figured it was my normal depression getting out of hand. But lately I have been feeling much better. The days are sunnier, getting a little warmer, and the days are getting longer too. I could not pinpoint what I was depressed about either and usually I know the cause.

We are gearing up for the big wedding in May, my daughter Tami and her wonderful fiance Brooks. Its hard to find a young man who will measure up to a mama's expectations but Brooks fills the bill! I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of the dress I ordered for the wedding and I am having a lady at my work make my jewelry. She does exquisite pieces! I am also eager to see Dakota in his tux! My boy seems to be back to his old self after all the turmoil last year.

Work is going well. One of the controllers asked me last week if my supervisor is now part time as she is out more than at work. I laughed and asked, is it too early to put my bid in for supervisor? I really do like my job and have been learning new things. We have kind of slowed down so I have been working on a procedures manual. I actually like doing things like that. Plus it lets the boss know I have many different skills!

The only area of discontent in my home is the husband. Sometimes he can be a real butthead! Hubby takes vacation twice a year to work the nascar race we have here. Well this year he won't have any vacation time left after taking those two weeks! I am so tempted to schedule a vacation for just me and Dakota, go somewhere relaxing. It would be somewhere we can drive to, I am thinking a beach somewhere here on the east coast. Or I might just go local, one of our own beaches here in Delaware. Just to get away for a week. I am already plannning a trip to Pennsylvania to visit one of my nieces. She gets discount tickets to Hershey Park and told me I have deprived Dakota since he has not been there yet. LOL It used to be a family thing we did, me and two of my sisters and their families.

I have today off from work, first I am a state employee and then I also work at a University so I get lots of days off! Me and the boy will probably head out to do some shopping. Looks like it is warming up nicely and the sun is shining!

enjoy the day!
