So today is a week that I've been in St Louis for work. Before I left home, I checked the 10 day forecast so I would know how to pack. Yall, the whole forecast Changed once I got here. Snow was NOT in the forecast, just some rain and temps dipping to 37 at night. So I packed a jacket and some gloves. It has snowed like crazy for a few days and I am not equipped with my warm winter coat, boats, and beanie hats. I bought a scarf at Goodwill over the weekend.
Work has been crazy and I had to work on Saturday which is part of the plan for a conversion. What makes things nice is that I have a handful of good friends here so i'm able to have dinner with them. I don't get to see them often at all and it beats hanging in hotel alone every night .
I have a team member that is also good friend of mine that got sent to Kansas City on this project. On Sunday, we both drove 2 hours each and met in the middle in Columbia, Missouri. We had breakfast and did some retail therapy at the local mall. There was a Ronald McDonald display /fundraiser and there were lots of super cute gingerbread houses that we found out were all made from school kids. Some of them are so dang good!! It was such a fun day and I got to see a little countryside scenery on the way.
I am very ready to go home on Friday! I miss my husband and my 2 dogs like crazy. I am on a quick break so i'm keeping this short and I don't like to skip a week if I can help it.
Here are some pics from St Louis and also some more pics from our bike trip 2 weekends ago:
