Lately. And why this week is so great.

Lately

 (via my iPhone)

• Last night, this beautiful lady called me at 9:30 from the Florida Keys with some very exciting news.  For someone who deals with engagements quite a bit more than the average individual, you'd think I would be a little more collected and less like a thirteen year old girl.  I can't help it though.  I'm so, so happy for my friends - it's hard not to jump up and down with excitement!
• I spent last weekend with my Mom and the rest of my Georgia family.  My niece had her fourth birthday party (photos to come) and I spent all of Friday night and Saturday covering things in glitter, hanging crepe paper and icing cupcakes.  Then, on Mother's Day, I parked myself right next to my Mama and stayed there until it was time to go to the airport.
• I checked in for my flight on my phone en route to Savannah and found that I had somehow ended up in first class on BOTH legs of my trip home.  I'm not really sure how it happened, but I certainly wasn't complaining.
• This week is the last week of the 2012 lacrosse season.  It's hard to believe I'm wrapping up my fourth year of coaching - my very first freshmen girls are graduating this year!  How did that happen?!  As much as I'm sad to see them go, I couldn't be prouder of them.
• My favorite San Franciscan magazine editor is heading into New York this week and I fully intend to monopolize a few hours of her time on the East Coast.
• And as if this week wasn't already awesome, I'll be wrapping it up on a plane, on my way to see my best friend, some of my favorite clients and a lot of wine and croissants.
