Happy Hour at High & Dry

January 17, 2020 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Work has been getting harder and harder. I can’t seem to get a break. And feelings of suffocation is happening.

I left work later than planned, rushed home to let the pups out then headed to BIL’s to drop off the PS4. Jason came and was surprised at all the boxes and bags and even tape that still worked after so many years. He said it was like unwrapping a whole new PS4!

High & Dry | Houston, Texas | Old Fashioned & Love Street

Even though it was horrible at work, I was happy I got to be at happy hour with my old co-workers.

Salim dropped off his car at Sissy’s and we took an Uber to High and Dry. He was nice enough to get me a drink since I paid for the ride.

High & Dry | Houston, Texas | Priscilla & Mellie Dee

Priscilla and I had to take a selfie of course!

Then one with all the boys, Salim, Aaron, John and Gilbert. The crowd was crazy and after throwing a few back we headed to eat.

Christian's Tailgate | Houston, Texas | Priscilla, Gilbert, Salim, Aaron, John

I hadn’t eaten since seven the previous night so I guess you could say I was having a dang good time. We ordered a whole table of food and had a great time talking, laughing, and singing along with the 90s music that was playing at Christian’s Tailgate.

We bid our farewells to Priscilla and then after a while, Salim called an Uber and we were out the door. A quick ride back to our cars where we said good night. I headed home since this week has been tough and my bed is calling my name. He, on the other hand, is still out partying. I joked he was going to a booty call.

Tomorrow is hopefully a full day of fun and entertainment. Can’t wait! Eek!

Luna Looking Up

Happy Birthday, baby girl! Another birthday where I don’t get to see your derp-derp eyes looking up at me in confusion and your spazzes.

Luna & Red Ball

Wishing you all the balls you want and sleeps on the couch. Hoping that you get spoiled rotten with treats today.

Bedtime Stories with JJ

January 14, 2020 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Reading to JJ

Work was a cluster****. I’ll probably get fired for speaking out but I felt it was necessary. Therefore, I ended up at Mallory’s late by one and a half hours. She fed me stuffed salmon and green beans that hit the spot!

John came home late too so I had the pleasure spending bath time with JJ. Then he wanted me to read him a few bedtime books before John got home. He was such a happy kid today and it was a breath of fresh air after the last meeting I have.

Three more days of work. I can do this. The weekend better be a great one!

Goodbye, PS4

January 11, 2020 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Goodbye PS4

Factory resetting my PS4 to sell. I haven’t used it since Scruffy and I broke up. I remember buying a new car and a PS4 when I knew I was going to get laid off soon which I wrote about in a post.

I told everyone it was to spend more time with BIL and sometimes Sissy but it was truthfully so that I can spend time with Scruffy. I knew he played a lot of video games so I wanted to spend time with him doing something he loved.

In the beginning, we’d play a bit but it ended up just me usually playing by myself or using it to watch telly since he wasn’t super interested in playing with me no matter how much I asked him to pick a game we can both play. I guess sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can never be a part of someone’s life if they won’t let you in completely.

Goodbye, PS4. You gave me some great memories. Maybe one day, I’ll have someone who’ll want to play PS5 with me. Until then, it’s me and my Switch.

Working from Home | Rizzo & 2020 Goals

Yesterday I had the pleasure of working from home. Rizzo’s head is so tiny next to that giant paper of goals. I’m starting to feel like the assistant to the boss. I mean, I love scheduling meetings and running them, okay that’s a lie, I hate meetings. But I don’t mind the work as it helps me be a stronger speaker but it’s all so nervewracking when everyone thinks you’re “in charge” when you shouldn’t be. Luckily the boss set them straight that I was tasked so whatever I said kinda goes.

Rizzo Inching Towards My Side of the Bed

I’d look over to this sleeping beauty who put himself under the blanket, head on the pillow. I also kept seeing him slowly inching towards my side of the bed. He looks so peaceful. I keep having thoughts of how I’d be if he was gone from my life. Does anyone else get those moments with their pets or kids? Is that weird?

Happy Lamb Hot Pot | Houston, Texas | Sissy, BIL, Dad, & June

Today, June, Dad and I met Sissy and BIL at Happy Lamb Hot Pot. June and I have sworn off eating anything else the rest of the day because even though we didn’t eat a whole lot, it was still way more than what we’re used to lately.

The weekend’s almost over. I’m not ready!

Q1 2020 Team Away Day

January 9, 2020 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Q1 2020 Team Away Day | Snacks

I ran the first team away day of the year. I was nervous, flubbed a lot, but overall it went well. It’s also the reason I’ve been MIA this week. I’ve been working hard to put everything together and I’m glad everyone had a great time.

Q1 2020 Team Away Day | BATL Houston Heights

After our discussion on our 2020 goals, we headed to BATL Houston Heights for some axe throwing.

Q1 2020 Team Away Day | BATL Houston Heights | Food

We ordered burgers and pizza for lunch along with two alcoholic beverages. The food comes from next door while the drinks are there at the place which is pretty convenient. The pizza was great though I heard the burgers were meh.

Q1 2020 Team Away Day | BATL Houston Heights | Mellie Dee Axe Throwing

I got to throw big and small axes but overall I sucked horribly. Not so horrible that I was last place though!

I got to make shirts for everyone for this axe throwing event. I’m glad they turned out great and even the people who printed the shirts were surprised at how well and clean the design came out! So … I guess I do shirts that can be sent to the printers now. Hit me up!

Jacob in Bouncer

We left early and some went to happy hour. I went over to Mallory’s and came in seeing this bundle in his bouncer. He was a happy baby the whole time I was there!

Cafe Del Sol | Katy, Texas

we ordered food from Cafe Del Sol and got Door Dash to deliver. Their food is pretty delicious.

Mallory and I watched a few episodes of Dynasty before I left. And now it’s relaxing and then working from home tomorrow. Yippie!
