A lovely evening...

It has been a rough week for me already and it is now only a half hour into Wednesday. Tonight, though, was a nice excursion to take a break from the ongoing stress of thesis writing. I went for a belated birthday dinner which was absolutely amazing (salmon, pesto and pepper linguini, mixed green salad, asparagus, and kaluha chocolate cake... YUM), complete with an anti-stress bath package which was just what I needed. When I came home I still felt a wee bit down, and within 5 minutes of setting down my purse, a great friend of mine called to see if I wanted to go for a glass of wine at the best new restaurant in Saskatoon, Gracie's Off Broadway. It was lovely. We are going there for dinner on Saturday and I already know what I am having, in fact, the chef is saving some ingredients especially for my risotto that night. It should be wonderful. I am going to curl up in bed with Myrah for a peaceful night's sleep.

More pictures are on my photo site, including my birthday toes :o) Thanks for the pedicure, Brennan!

Still working

Well the deadline has come and gone and I am still working on my thesis. I had grandiose plans of getting work done today and they went out the window when the building that houses my office was evacuated before I got there. It would make for a nice quiet work day except for the poisonous gasses wafting through the halls.

My kitchen looks lovely right now. All my dishes are done and I installed a couple of little lights underneath my cupboards to shine on my counter. It really makes my kitchen more inviting.

Well, back to work I suppose...
