Calm week and wicked weather

So there has been some pretty wicked weather going on in the Bluegrass today.  Fortunately, Lexington escaped most of the damaging storms.  Unfortunately, there have been several tornado touch downs with deaths and injuries reported.  My thoughts and prayers go out to those communities. 

I just wanted to write a little update on my week.  Pretty uneventful but really nice. 

Sunday I came home from Cincinnati early to have lunch with M&D.  We ate at Mi Mexico, our favorite.  I then took a little shopping trip to TJ Maxx, bought some new shoes, and stopped by Kroger for a few things.  I also picked up these:

I love the manager's special flowers and I can never pass up lilies.  Not too shabby for $3.50.  They have been brightening up my living room all week :)

I have done a whole lot of nothing for the rest of this week.  Besides going to class and doing the necessities, I really have spent a lot of time in the gym (as of today I have lost 3.5 pounds, yay!) and on the couch.  On Wednesday, I had a cancellation in the clinic which made for a short day (even after spending 20 min in the basement during a tornado warning!) so I headed to the gym and then Kroger for stuff to make a healthy dinner: 

 

I made some pasta with mushrooms, squash, and zucchini.  Very simple but pretty delicious.  I just ate the leftovers tonight while hunkered down in my storm palate in the hallway:

 Mattress pad in the most interior place in my house, complete with pillow, blanket, flashlight, Pish, reading materials, and a snack.  Fortunately I didn't really spend too much time there this evening! 

 I am back on the couch now, kind of bummed that the weather cancelled my plans to go see The Vow with the girls.  But that's okay, I'll be home for Friday Bride-day on TLC, my favorite!  

Tomorrow M&D are bringing me Tinker for the night while they join the Parrot Heads at the Yum! Center to see Jimmy Buffet.  And Sunday we are having a baby shower for my classmate, Annie.  She is having a little boy, due in April.  We are all so excited (and nervous) for her!
