Today was one of those nice days. It's was like my Sunday. I was home all day today, didn't have any tutoring or work or anything major to do today. I just enjoyed the day.

The sun streaming into the apartment is making me have spring fever, even though it's only like 30 degrees here. I spent the day walking the dogs at the park (twice), catching up on emails, running errands and making dinner for tonight...oh, and of course searching for jobs.

I am anxious for spring to really get here....ok, I know it is officially spring, but here in Chicago we have only had a couple spring-like days. It's still not quite warm enough for me to want to hang around outside with the dogs or just be outside. I see the signs that spring is coming though and that makes me happy. The sun is out and the new baby green grass is just starting to pop through. I see buds on the trees and the guys at the park are raking dirt in the baseball fields with their little mower machines. Spring is almost here...I can feel it! Spring and Fall are my favorite seasons, but of course they are the shortest seasons here in Chicago.

Tonight I am making pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches. I've had it cooking in the crock pot all day and it smells super yummy in here! I got the recipe from my new(ish) friend, Manuel. I had dinner over at his house last week and he made this. It was so good I had to make it for me and Joe.
