This week......

I'll be in Wenatchee the greater part of this week for 'CORE Training/Orientation' for my NEW job!! Yesterday was my first day. It wasn't too bad but by the end of the day I was POOPED!! I went to be early, errr....FELL asleep early last night and NOW I CAN'T sleep! GRRRRR! I've been up since.....oh, 2:30am I think.......tossing and turning, turning and tossing. UGH!

One of the other girls who just got hired is here too...we carpooled together. She is VERY nice. I'm glad we're getting to know each other. She just moved here from California too and we're finding we have QUITE a bit in common!!!

This is where we went for dinner last night..........

I was introduced to McGlinn's, among other places, when I lived in Wenatchee while finishing school. The food is FABULOUS!

This is what I had last night:

(or should I say, what I took HOME from dinner! I was STUFFED!)

Smoked Salmon Fettuccini.....

Mmmmmmm, was it EVER DELICIOUS!!!

And guess who came down to join me for a few nights???

Yep! Joe!!! He's off the next 2 so he decided to come. The kids are staying with friends so it's just me and him......awww....how nice.

He goes shopping and what not during the day while I go to 'class'. HEY! What's wrong with THIS picture????? :)

I'm not real sure WHAT he did or WHERE he went yesterday--he did tell me but darned if I can remember.....Today I KNOW he's going to go to Hooked on Toys, probably for the DAY AND then to pick up one of Samuel's Christmas gifts!!! It's SO nice having HIM to take part and take care of some of that for me.

THIS is what Joe had for dinner:

Uhhhmm, Yeah...........It's GONE! He SCARFED!!!! It was the 'special' and it DID look scrumptious. Steak with a medley of peppers, onions and prawns overtop and some garlic mashed potatoes, a salad and of course their famous fresh beer bread. Mmmmm....I tasted one of his prawns and was it EVER yummy. It ALMOST made me wish I'd gotten the special too!! As you can tell, he THOROUGHLY enjoyed it!

I was HOPING to be able to meet up with my DEAR friend Kim while I was here.......for the WEEK....but darn it if she's working Mon-Wed!!! Ugh! I leave Thursday after class! Oh well............maybe, hopefully, next time?!Tonight we are planning on going to Leavenworth. We're supposed to get out of class a little early today so it will be PERFECT!!! And the plan is to go here for dinner:

Visconti's.

I LOVE this place. If you're ever in the area or even CLOSE........GO!!!!! You WON'T be disappointed!!

Well, I suppose I'd better try to rest for a half hour or so before I start getting ready for the day.

Have a GREAT day!
