Tornadoes!!

Today is one week until my birthday! I know, I’m getting a little too old to be excited about birthdays still, but I can’t help it! This year I’ll be a quarter-century old. That’s just crazy!

This week has been busy at work for both me and Garrett!

Tuesday night I presented the Business Retention Strategic Plan I wrote to the City council. I got a little nervous right before my presentation, but it went really well! I was so proud of myself!

Garrett came to watch the presentation, and so did some of our Board members and community business leaders. I was worried we wouldn’t have a very good turn-out because we were forecasted to have bad weather that evening, but we had a good show. We even got some media coverage for the Today paper and the BSW Citizen!

That night we did get some pretty bad weather. You may have seen all the tornadoes on the news in Oklahoma and North Texas. Luckily, we live in Southern Dallas County, and all the tornado activity was in North Dallas. We just got some heavy rain and wind. Our sirens never even went off! From what people have told me, tornadoes rarely make it down this far South.

Garrett’s been working on a big editing job for a medical company. He had to do the spot in English and Spanish. Garrett’s officially a bi-lingual editor!

Tomorrow is Friday the 13th, so we’re going to go see the new Friday the 13th movie when we get off work, of course! It should be a blast!!
