perfect weather.

the weather could not have been more perfect today. it was gorrrrgeous! if it stayed like this for a few weeks, i wouldn't mind the postpone-ment of fall one single bit.

travis woke up at 5:30 and hit the gym. i was really proud of him. i considered going for the half a second i was awake ... and then i was out like a light again.

he headed to work, and i set about being a stay-at-home mom for conor. i put a load of laundry in the washer, folded a load i had put in the dryer last night, and spent time catching up on my emails and blogs. i started working on a logo {again} for a client, but was/am having a really hard time with it. i guess this is what "designer's block" is like ... if that even exists.

we've been having really bad problems with conor and fleas lately. i will literally pick off 60-70 fleas, only to take him outside for his potty breaks and find him covered again. it's getting really, really ridiculous.

i headed to petsmart to see if i could find something to treat our house. i haven't seen any in the apartment, but a flea infestation is definitely the last thing i want. while there i texted travis to see what his plan were for lunch. we decided i should meet him and have lunch together.

we enjoyed another nice lunch at chick-fil-a {i found out it was travis's third day in a row to have lunch there, but he wanted to!} and then we headed to another client of his. it was nice getting to see him in the middle of my day. we shared an ice dream on the road in between the two clients. after i dropped him back off at his first client, i headed home to see my baby boy and set to work on treating the apartment.

i stripped the bed, washed all of the linens, and treated our furniture and carpets all throughout the house. then i headed to the parking lot of lowe's for a phone interview. haha! conor always tends to bark at the most inopportune times -- i.e. when i'm in the middle of a very important conversation.

the interview went well -- it lasted a little over an hour! and i have a second phone interview already scheduled for tomorrow at 11:00 in the morning. yowza.

after the interview i headed home; it was now after five and travis actually beat me to the apartment, even though i was just around the corner. the weather was so nice i actually sat on the lawn for about 30 minutes talking to my mom before i actually headed inside.

i was supposed to meet kate to discuss an upcoming competition i'm entering and just to see her sweet face, and i looked a bit like a raggamuffin, so i jumped into the shower. kate wouldn't care, but i was starting to feel a little down and decided i needed a refresher. i hopped in the shower, and kate called just as i was stepping out.

since the weather was so pretty i asked if she wanted to scrap our brainstorming session and opt for a night on the patio of los cabos with our guys. she and nick loved the idea so a few minutes later we were headed up the street for appetizers and drinks. it was so fun! as i said before, the weather could not have been nicer. there was a live musician and we all had so much fun chatting, sharing stories and reading about the traits of each of our "signs" {kate and travis are both aries, nick is a leo, and i'm a gemini}. we laughed so much and all wished it was the weekend so we wouldn't have to turn in so early.

now i'm sitting in the bed ... wishing i had a bit of inspiration for the logo i need to complete asap and just enjoying my sweet baby conor lying next to his mommy cuddling. i love him so much.

well, i think this makes three days in a row of updating the ol' blog. aren't you proud of me?
