Friday Favorites: The Glad Game

It’s FRIIIIIIIIIDAY!!!!! Linking up with Andrea, Erika, and Narci this mornin’…totally the best part of my day.

Last week I started my own version of Pollyanna’s glad game, where each week my Friday Favorites that i’m posting about something that makes me glad from each day. Check out last week’s HERE!

: Pathetically texting my father when he’s gone.

I’m glad that I have the ability to work and make money but some days you’re just like, “Do I haaaaaave to go????” And Friday was one of those days, so I pathetically texted my dad while he was out of town and my reply: Work Harder. Yes, that’s the Gen for ya. And if you can’t tell he gets really behind when you have multiple conversations going on at one time…males.

: Sister’s “birthday party.”

For Morgan’s 18th birthday she wanted to go to Luke Bryan. She made me wait and wait because she didn’t want me spending the money….well, I spent the money and a lot of it. But it was so worth it! She said she had a blast. She took her friend Jessy with her Saturday night. And I got videos of Lukey singing 🙂

: Relaxation/family days.

  

Sunday is my relaxation/family day. Every Sunday morning my dad wakes me up at the buttcrack of dawn. Literally, it’s still dark when i’m getting dressed. We get to the golf course as soon as it opens and go about our routine. But don’t forget the Starbucks that we get before we get there! It’s become our little routine of daddy/daughter time. Which i’m all about.

After I got back from golfing, an hour later I dragged my mom to Yoga class with me. This was a new class I started and I didn’t want to go alone on the first day so she got to come. And if you can’t tell she’s SO EXCITED! So on Sunday I got mommy/daughter time too. It was fun! But she told me “you’re on your own next week” in the middle of class. Sigh. Mission turn mom into a Yogi was unsuccessful.

: Morgan’s 18th birthday.

Monday was Morgan’s 18th birthday, which I posted about Tuesday. She had school all day and our busy schedules gave us 15 minutes to spend together, so she opened presents then. She didn’t get her birthday cake until late that night. I’m so excited she had a good birthday, but also sad she’s going to college next year. I’ll miss her.

: The ability to learn.

Tuesday was no eventful day whatsoever. However, while i’m sitting in class for FOUR consecutive hours dreading waking up those mornings, i’m still glad I have to ability to learn and pay for a college education.

: Christmas present #1.

I told you not to hate me on Monday when I posted about Christmas pictures, and i’m going to say it again. Don’t hate me!!!! I know fall just started but Molly likey to be prepared. So, on Wednesday night when I got home I wrapped the first Christmas present of the season. Honestly, it was super weird. Maybe i’ll just get them and not wrap them until I can play Christmas music and drink hot chocolate.

: Lazy days.

Now, if you asked my family they would say I have “lazy days” every day. But no. Yesterday was a particularly lazy day. I had to close at the restaurant last night and be up early for class yesterday so I dressed in my Nikes and Large polo shirt for class. Once I came home I organized, worked on homework/projects, worked on the blog, and relaxed for a couple hours.

And these are a fewwww of my FAVORITE things!!!!! When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when i’m feeling sad i’ll simply remember my favorite things and then I don’t feel sooooooooo bad. (Please tell me you got The Sound of Music reference) (or else i’ll be super embarrassed). BE GLAD, FRIENDS! It’s the weekend!!
