My Final Monday

That's right!  Today is my last Monday of the school year!  I was so tempted to just wear jeans the last 9 days of work but I suppose I can save that for the last 5 (finals for the kids & a teacher day.)  Knowing that this year is almost over I am in such a good mood about going to work.  If y'all could say a couple prayers for me I'd really appreciate it.  My grandma was recently in the hospital & got moved into a nursing home until she can get her strength back.  My grandpa hasn't been able to visit her because he is fighting a cold and doesn't want to get her sick.  So if you could say a little prayer for them that would be great!  And then I still don't have a teaching job lined up for next year so I'd also really appreciate prayers for finding one soon!  Linking up with Miss Biana!

Friday

My work week had been so shitty that I decided to duck out a little early Friday on my off period to go get my nails done.  It had been forever since I had gotten a mani/pedi.  It felt amazing.  Between just being plain exhausted from the week, the complimentary wine, & the massage I could've just fallen asleep right there.  I got ORLY polish on my nails & toes.  My manicure is Neon Heat & my pedicure is On The Edge.  I am ready for summer now!  When I got home I laid down briefly before hopping in the shower & getting ready for a girls' night out with Kathrine & Emily.  We met up at  Star Cafe for supper because I'm pretty sure that is the only place that I ever actually eat when I'm there.  I even text Kathrine asking if she was going to hate me if I suggested there again.  Hey I like what I like!  Plus, it's way more reasonably priced that the other places, ie steakhouses, that are down there.  We then hit up PRs for a drink & were about to call it a night before going into the Thirsty Armadillo mostly so we could go to the bathroom & then got sucked into the throwback rap/hip hop that was playing so we wound up staying until finally an impeding storm sent us home.

Saturday

I was going to get up at a decent hour & get so much done.  I actually did wake up at a decent hour, 8-8:30, but I didn't get out of bed until 11.  I was actually pretty productive too.  I got caught up on blogs, I went grocery shopping, did a little bit of food prep for the week, dishes, 3 loads of laundry.  On the other hand I didn't get dressed until 3-4 when I finally went to the store & also watched a lot of One Tree Hill while doing laundry & cooking.  It was actually a kind of perfect Saturday.  I didn't get all of my food prepped for the week.  Just some snacks (deviled eggs & hard boiled eggs) & breakfasts (burritos.)  I didn't feel like going back to the store though for the ingredient I was missing for my suppers.

Sunday

Sunday I was woken up around 6:30 by a thunderstorm so I decided to stay up.  I love thunderstorms.  I laid in bed for a little bit just listening to it before getting up to make coffee.  I managed to get a lot done again without actually doing a whole lot.  I listened to a lot of classic rock on vinyl while prepping my lunches (meatballs) & cleaning up my living room.  Other than that I don't actually know what I did.  I applied for a lot of jobs, talked to my mama on the phone, got summer session of grad school paid for, & just messed around online in general.  

I decided to shut down my blog Twitter account because like 30 people followed me & I NEVER used it.  Legit the only thing ever posted to it was my automated blog posts from Dlvr.It.  So I decided to switch that to my personal account which I actually use, although still not nearly as much as I used to.  I used to be on Twitter all day long all the time & now half the time when I go on I maybe retweet some people but that's a lot of it.  But because I do use that one more & have closer to 1200 followers I'm just getting it all done on there.  So if you're on Twitter & want to keep following me, or even start, here it is!  

That evening Kathrine & I met up at 54th Street Bar & Grill for supper.  The food was really good but the service was really terrible.  I used to be a waitress so I'm forgiving of a lot & almost always tip 20+%.  So if I tip you 10% you know you sucked.  She was never around, was slow as all get out, both of our orders were either missing things or had things added, & she just looked like she did not care at all the whole time.  After supper we got froyo from Menchies.  When I got home I was so tired I barely made it from couch to bed & out of regular clothes into PJs.

Overall it was just the kind of weekend I needed.  Very productive without really having to leave home a whole lot or change out of basketball shorts & a t-shirt.
