My 1st Gold Star!

by DanicasDaily on January 27, 2012

Happy Friday Eve all!!!  I couldn’t resist sharing the picture of my Sis and her hilarious Husband in this week’s Wordless Wednesday.  What can I say ~ It totally runs in the family and we are all clowns like that who can’t resist walking past the “put your face here” signs LOL….

My day started off with one of the coolest things ever that we have at work ~ I got my first ever GOLD STAR!!! We have a program that you can nominate someone who goes above and beyond, then, send them a card plus a Gold Star Balloon……

It totally makes me happy to look up at this all day ~ and yup, it’s totally the little things….r

For snack I had an apple and a Cabot Cheese that somehow went unpictured (1 points+).

After work, I was off to Reflection Salon & Spa to see my FAVORITE hair dresser ever while The Husband headed over to play poker!  I honestly LOVE that you can have homemade STEAMED chicken potstickers ordered, delivered and waiting for you when you arrive. 

I totally resisted eating the entire container.  (10 points+)
