Nichole the Sloth

Michael is just a few short hours form landing back in Denmark. I think he is going to be quite the sleepy bear when he stumbles out from getting his luggage. This is the first time I will actually go to the airport to "pick him up". It sounds sweet, but I have a hidden agenda. STARBUCKS! The only Starbucks in Denmark is located in the airport right in the entrance hall and just opened right before our trip to Istanbul. We haven't taken advantage of it yet, because we would rather just go through security and get our free drinks in the lounge. Can you blame us? But today, I'm going to go get my steamy cup of coffee and sit and wait for "Hubsters" to come on out. He had asked me to get him something too so when he gets to me, he will have some coffee to waken his sleepy eyes.

The 3 days he was gone went fast. I honestly didn't do much, but it was great. I hit the gym in the morning rather then the evenings which was a nice change, then spent the rest of the days doing a little important stuff, but for the most part turned into a sloth.

Wednesday my friend Sarah came over for dinner. We ate, chatted, drank tea and had a nice time.

Yesterday, I marched myself over to IKEA to get some "Halloween Supplies". We are hosting a Halloween party for some TI'ers and their families, but I needed a few more things. Now, unfortunately, I have to wait a month-ish till its Halloween time. *sigh*

I think our weekend will consist of Michael recuperating from his whirlwind trip to Japan. Then Sunday we are having the two new students (Daniel and Jason) over for a pancake/waffle breakfast. I don't I have had a pancake OR waffle in over a year, so I think my waffle iron will be happy to get to cook again.

ok, you and I TOTALLY meant to be friends!! When I walk in the SB on McDermott in Allen, it is like a scene from Cheers...but instead of yelling "Norm", they yell "Kelli!" :o) I have been fretting about how I will survive in DK without my daily fix... lol

Nichole, hope Michael made it back okay. It is great that you can get a Starbuck's fix! It was nice to be able to talk to you the other day. You just sounded like you were a few blocks away, instead of continents, and oceans away! Technology is just great!
Love,
Sharon

I'm glad your three days alone went by fast!

Viggo and I actually just came home from Starbucks. They have a turkey and avocado sandwich he can eat a lot of.

I hope Michael had a good trip!
