Weekend Positivity

Absurdly busy in a different way this time...I only worked one day this week but there was a ton of stuff to do anyway, between grading, cleaning, and Thanksgiving. I am a day late, but I'm going to use Monday-Sunday as usual and save today's stuff for next weekend's post if I need it.

I am proud of:

• getting the remaining exams from the previous week graded early.
• keeping up with the online course again, doing the majority of the work early.
• giving the whole apartment a proper cleaning.
• refraining from playing Skyrim until I had proper time for it.
• clearing up a frustrating misunderstanding without getting too panicky over it (I borrowed my boyfriend's rational thinking a little bit to do so).

I enjoyed:

• getting $14 cute low-heeled pumps that fit (I have been looking for something like this for a year or more, so yay).
• putting 7 hours into Skyrim when I finally had a day to myself.
• time with family people.
• time off and time to myself.
• waking up without alarms for several days in a row.

I love:

• my boyfriend.
• Skyrimmmmmm.
• my wonderful kitty.
• Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry (for $2.50/12-pack :D)
• sleep.

Take care, all. :)

This week has been absurdly busy, but I am still managing to post this.

I am proud of:

• getting yet more homework grading done on time, when I had an excuse I could have used to avoid it.
• copying all four exams this week a day ahead of time.
• getting exams graded on time or early...two more to go, I hope to finish tomorrow (which would be very early).
• keeping up with the online class despite the hectic week of four exams.
• staying away from the negative influence again, despite being very tempted not to.

I enjoyed:

• socializing.
• teaching cool topics.
• dinners out.
• winning a difficult game of Words with Friends.
• watching The Sing Off and being silly.

I love:

• my cat.
• Fresca.
• Elder Scrolls games, although I am waiting to really play this one.
• the prospect of time off this week!
• my boyfriend.

Take care, all. :)

Here we go again. I am even starting this prior to midnight, go me! (Finishing prior to midnight is, of course, a different story).

I am proud of:

• getting a bunch of grading done on time.
• keeping up with the class I'm taking (full credit so far).
• writing an exam early.
• doing the dishes.
• staying away from the aforementioned negative influence for a full week (and counting).

I enjoyed:

• playing with my nutso kitty.
• watching tv shows (good, bad, and mediocre).
• ticklish silliness.
• dinner out at a burger place.
• nice weekend sleep.

I love:

• my boyfriend.
• fall weather.
• sleep.
• my cat.
• music.

Take care, all. :)

Hey, look, second week in a row! It is bedtime, but I'm getting this done first.

I am proud of:

• sticking with the mix-my-meals-up idea (this time it was just a different side item, but it's still different).
• continuing to keep my room relatively clean.
• keeping up with the dishes fairly well again (I've been making it a point to do them weekly at least).
• making a decision to spend some time away from unhealthy influences.
• inquiring about a class I wanted to take and when offered the opportunity to take it immediately, accepting!

I enjoyed:

• hugs.
• getting slung over a shoulder for what I think was the first time ever (in my adult life).
• Halloween, although we only got two trick-or-treaters, and they came together...
• playing with my cat.
• reading/finishing another book! Night Watch is up next. I hear it is quite good.

I love:

• life.
• my boyfriend.
• my cat.
• bed.
• my glasses, oddly enough. I was scared to get any at first but after 6 months I can honestly say I have grown to love them.

Take care, all. :)
