Little Things

I have been completely consumed with tests this week and I still have two more to take next week before I can really breathe. Even though my test week has been a little stressful, I have many little things that have made my week more bearable...

(no blog post is complete without little Zoe)

-A late night chat with Travis on Tuesday. We talked about life, things/people that stress us out, dreams etc. all while dangling our feet in the pool-

-A sweet text from my little asking me how my week was going-

-Tomato basil soup and chicken salad sandwiches for lunch at the house on Wednesday-

-Spending practically an entire day at Starbucks on Wednesday to prepare for my two tests on Thursday- 

-Checking my phone on Thursday and seeing three texts from each member of my family wishing me a happy jewish new year, all sent at the same time (dads idea)-

-Talking with my Mom on the phone and deciding that when I come home, we are making Peach Noodle Kugel and Honey Cake- 

-My group text conversation with Ashley and Lauren, we texted during my entire Oceanography class and I loved every minute of it. I even had a moment in class where I was trying so hard not to laugh out-loud that my body was shaking and I had to hold my breath for fear that letting it out would release my laughter. I love them!! Sometimes, I miss them so much my heart aches a little (note to self: they deserve their own post) 

Don't You Love Grandmothers?

In a little over a month, I'll be going to San Antonio to visit my Grandmother by myself. In my whole life, I've never gone to my Grandmother's house alone because she lives in San Antonio but, this time, it's just me and her! 

I haven't been down to San Antonio since Christmas and I barely remember being there because of that "pesky" abscess tooth I was suffering from. We have already planned to go to the Symphony on the Friday I get in town and then needlepoint while watching the UT vs. Tech game on Saturday. You can only do these things with your Grandmother. 

Don't ya just love it?

* Here's to hoping that pimento cheese and brunch at "the club" will be on the agenda too*
