Hello happy FriYeah!
It's a coughing Friday though :( Came home from my work trip with a cough. Never fails! I even drank EmergenC while I was there. My body doesn't like work conferences lol.
Monday I worked most of the day then got a car wash and went off to Sacramento.
The conference was at the same place it was in 2020, the Double Tree. The building was is late 80's early 90's design I think. There are all these different wings and of course I had the one farthest from the front. My room was also ground floor level and had a sliding glass door so that was a bit freaky. If I stayed there again I'd request a room on a higher floor for safety reasons. I listen to way too many crime podcasts!
I picked the room with 2 queens because it looked like it had a larger table.
No swimming for me
This area looked nice, although I never made it out there
I brought some evening entertainment
When I first got to the hotel I saw some people from my office and they were walking to the mall to have dinner at BJ's so I joined them. I just had a burger which wasn't as good as the french dip I had at ours awhile back. It took forever to get out food too. I forgot to take a pic ;)
Tuesday we started at 9, which was nice. They didn't have any coffee out for us but would put it out at like 10 with a snack. So weird. I think it was so we'd all spend $5 for coffee from their little snack area in the morning. I only did that the last day when I didn't have any free coffee in my room left.
We had a "working lunch" on Tuesday. The poor speaker, everyone was taking so much you could barely hear him. Toward the end someone finally told everyone to pipe down a bit. Lunch was pretty nice though!
Yummy dessert
The classes they had were nice and short so that was good. I have a pretty short attention span these days when it comes to just sitting and listening to someone talk. I had one class for Workers Comp, one for Leave Benefits that day so they were nice and informative.
We got a swag bag with a bunch of stuff I probably won't use. This shirt was so hideous I gave it back to them to regift lol.
After work we met up at 6:30 and walked over to the mall area for dinner. We went to Seasons 52. It was a little spendy but the food was soooo gooood. I got the filet mignon and a blood orange margarita. My friend and I shared some little dessert cups too.
Wednesday and Thursday they gave us a box lunch which I forgot to take pictures of. I had a turkey sandwich one day and a chicken wrap the other. They were both pretty good.
Wednesday's classes were just horrible. Although a lot of people liked them. Wednesday was "Wellness Day". They hired some people to come in and give us classes with stretching and nutrition advice. Yeah no thanks.
Wednesday night we went to Pier 50 also at the mall for all you can eat Sushi. There were four of us and we ate a lot of sushi lol. I was definitely full when we left there.
I may have stayed up til 1am finishing the last of the puzzle. I was down to the areas mostly around the cat to finish it off. The orange and the greens were the last to be finished.
Thursday we started at 8. Booo. I had 3 "classes" and the last 2 I was seriously nodding off in. I was like wth is my problem lol. I don't think it was the staying up later but more of the just sitting there and it was boring as hell. I was so glad when we were finally done for the day.
I drove by my mom's house on the way home but no one was there. I called her and she didn't call me back until after I was home so glad I didn't wait around for her lol. She was off helping her friend.
No one had washed dishes the whole time I was gone. All the animals food bowls were empty and their water was gross. Also someone had pee'd on my bed so I had to wash all my bedding. I was laying on the couch when Scott got home and he went right in to wash dishes without me saying anything. Yeah how come he couldn't do that on Wednesday?
Luckily I had tried to go lay on the bed early so I had time to wash some of the bedding before it got too terribly late. Snookie enjoyed the stacked up pillows.
I came out to almost all the dishes washed this morning lol.
I finally found my inhaler this morning so that seems to have helped a bit with my coughing. Hopefully it doesn't turn into the usual horrible cough from hell that I get. I have zero plans for the weekend since Jess isn't working on Sunday. If I'm feeling good I might try to get Scott to go look at a car I want to see that is on Car Guru's. It's a bit of drive but it could be fun.
