Two times is one week, my own personal record

I'm sure you all are wandering what my blog post is about, I will tell you. I got pulled over again!! Again!! I literally had pulled out of my apartment and turned onto the main road as I headed to target and look in my rearview mirror and see flashing lights behind me. I wasn't speeding so I had no idea what I was being pulled over for and school's were out today so I wasn't in a school zone. It wasn't until he started walking over to my car that I realized that I didn't have my seat belt on.

This time though the copper was nice, took my info and then just came back to say he wasn't giving me a ticket. Praise the lord! I could have hugged him. I really need to start paying attention more when driving. In all of my 8 years as a driver I've been pulled over three times. The last two all within the week. I blame this on the stress and anxiety I've had the last few days with M being gone and with my exam.

After my speeding ticket, today wasn't too eventful. I got my hair did, laid out by the pool for a bit and then headed off to work at 1:30. Well I show up at a client's house and they tell me sorry were going out of town and forgot to call. Oh well off I headed to run some more errands and now I'm relaxing a bit at home before heading over to a friend's house for our weekend wine and desert nights!

Tomorrow I work 8-2:30 and I am happy to report that as of next saturday I will only be working till noon! Yes my weekends are starting to look up again.

Easter sunday I am going to go to church. This is a big deal for me. Ihaven't been to church in awhile. It was hard to find a catholic church here in NC and the one I found was in Spanish. So I searched and searched online and found a church right by my apartment. I am excited to try it out and figure what better day to start going back to church than easter sunday

After church I will be going to a friend's house to lay out by the pool and hopefully start working on my tan. What are you all doing for easter?

I have also finally started working on my stack of books begging to be read. Even though I have a ton to start, I am always looking for suggestions. Does anyone have any good books they can recommend.

  5. You know what? That happened to me once!

    When Buck and I were dating and we both commuted back and forth to be with each other (about 40 minutes drive each way) ... I got pulled over once on the way up-- nasty ticket in a place impossible to speed due to road construction btw--- and THEN on the way home- I got 'clocked by aircraft' and they sent state patrol after me. While he wrote the ticket, I looked in front of me, 2 cars pulled over by 'aircraft', and behind me 3 cars. Seriously?!

    Good news is that it has been over 3 years now, and no tickets since that horrible day. I am sending my since good luck to you.. may we both remain ticket free!

    Enjoy your Easter!!

    As far as good books, I love Nicholas Sparks anything. Oh, and though the title may be weird, I LOVED this book: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer. Happy reading!
