(92) Where did today go?

My alarm didn't go off this morning so i didn't end up waking up until 9am when my dad came in my room.
I quickly got ready for church and drank a cup of coffee.
It was bright, sunny, and warm at home so i chose to wear a skirt and a short sleeved sweater.
As we approached church we were driving into a cold haze.
Completely different weather than what was at home.

After church the parents and I went to lunch at village cafe.
I had french fries and a Cali philly cheese steak. 
When i got home I sat down with the sunday paper, looked through the ads, and then i cut coupons.
Then I took a wonderful nap on the couch.
The rest of the afternoon and evening is a blur of tv watching and internet surfing. 
(american pickers, one tree hill, extreme makeover home edition, the apprentice, 
browsed etsy vintage dishes)
Mom made cookies, and i ate cookie dough and a couple of pieces of fruit for dinner-so healthy right?

I hate when i waste my day, yet sometimes its nice not to do homework and to just enjoy doing nothing.

(8) Sleep, I need you

What a morning. 
After work last night I couldn't fall asleep.I ended up watching 3 episodes of Grey's Anatomy and then watched Anjelah Johnson: That's How We Do It, on netflix. I didn't end up falling asleep until 4am (i believe that's a first for me). My alarm went off at 7:30 this morning. I hit snooze but never fully fell back asleep. I got up and had a cup of coffee and then sat on my parents bed and zoned out for about 45 minutes. Eventually I got up and got ready for church.

Church (9:30-12:15)
I was really amazed at how awake I was today. (and i'm not just being sarcastic. I didn't even yawn at all) I was attentive and able to absorb so much (both during college group and big church). Aside from major body aches and cramps it was so wonderful to be there today.
Lunch
After church, a group of us went to Costco. I got a slice of pepperoni pizza(which was covered in grease-i used about 7 napkins to sop it up) and a berry smoothie. Delicious!   
3:20-4:10
Nap Time
I'm glad i didn't sleep for too long. I have to be able to fall asleep at a decent time cause school starts tomorrow= no sleeping in. GAHHHHH
4ish
Watched Enchanted (it was on TV when I woke up- mom had turned it on while i was napping)
5pm
Worked on another etsy treasury
For your viewing pleasure
6ish
I started gathering my stuff for school. I printed out the syllabi for my classes, grabbed a binder and a notebook, and started filling up my backpack. I am excited for my classes this semester, but I dread getting back into the swing of things (including: riding the bus, waking up early, doing homework, writing papers, and being on campus 5 days a week).
7ish
Ate dinner (apricot chicken, broccoli, rice) and packed my lunch for tomorrow.
Goal of the night
Get to bed early so that I'm not a moody zombie in the morning or at school. (This shouldn't be too hard to fulfill since I'm wiped)

(4) Things Are Looking Up

Off to a late start
11:30am
Woke Up and 10minutes later got out of bed
Coffee
12:00pm
Background TV: E! News
Checked emails, messages, facebook, twitter, etsy
(I got a message from a seller on etsy who's item i featured in my treasury "Caught Red Handled"
Here is what she had to say: 
Thank you so much for including us in your great treasury!! What a wonderful theme.
Have a great one!! (You really made my day, I am sitting home all sore and brusied. Was in an auto accident yesterday with my brand new car. Not feeling the best until I saw your treasury) I feel much more cheerful now!!!

I felt so blessed to hear that something I created brightened someone's day.)

Watched last nights episode of Parenthood
Blogs
My List of blogs that I explore daily
While viewing some blogs, i came across an online clothing shop. It is similar to ModCloth, but the prices are more reasonable. It's called Ruche and you should check it out.

Dr.'s Appt.
Yes, they made me wear a mask
I had Dr. Megan O'Bryan treating me today. She was so wonderful and so much better than my usual physician. The bad news is she's only there because one doctor left and mine is on maternity leave. That means I can't have her as my doctor all the time.
Here is what makes her so great:
-She speaks perfect english (my other Dr. is from India)
-She is really sweet and friendly.
-She apologized about the check in people making me wear a mask, and said she wouldn't have made me wear it.
-She examined my ears and found mucous behind my eardrums, she found a swollen lymph node, and she discovered that my tonsils aren't visible (which she had never seen in any of her patients before-she thought I had them removed, I didn't).
-She was surprised that my doctor hadn't prescribed me anything two weeks ago when I was in.
-She prescribed me antibiotics and nasal spray!!!!!! I am finally going to get better after 2 1/2 months.
Oh I also got an HPV shot, so now I have one sore arm.
This was a wonderful Doctor visit.
6pm
Watched Reruns of Parenthood and ate dinner(grilled cheese and soup)
7:30pm 
Took my antibiotics
An added bonus: my nasal spray smells like flowers

(3) A Good Day

Theme Song of the Day


9:22am
Morning Wake up Call from the Dr.'s office.
Luckily Andrea(woman who called) was very nice and easy to understand.
Dr. Appt. confirmed for Wednesday @3:45, 3rd floor, suite 304.
It's a different Dr than i've been seeing. Maybe she will find that being sick since November is not normal. Maybe she will actually prescribe me antibiotics. Maybe she can prescribe me allergy meds. I think I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I hope it's not just wishful thinking.
9:30am
Made myself get out of bed....it wasn't easy.
Poured myself a huge cup of coffee.
This mug is the size of my head
TV: Caught the last half of Live with Regis and Kelly
(And Regis is moving on from the show after 28 years. Is it bad to be happy about this. Too bad. I always felt so bad for the people he interviewed.  He didn't know much about them, he would interrupt their responses, and so many of them looked uncomfortable. I will, however, miss Kelly and His talks that happen the first 10-15 minutes of the show. But that's about all I'll miss about good old Regis)

5pm-11pm
Work
It started off really slow, which was a pleasant change from the previous shifts over the last few weeks(where i felt like i was being thrown into chaos). I was in a positive mood the whole time, which was also a nice change. The past few shifts I had been easily overwhelmed, stressed, and not myself. It was so wonderful to be back in the swing of things. The pace picked up after two servers were sent home,which meant it was time to step it up. Me and my coworker kept busy from about 7 to 10 (closing). By the end of the night I had made over 17% in tips, which is good for where I work.
Sigh of relief for the night being over and being home.
And an even bigger sigh of relief for being back to my happy, positive self at work.

(1) Playing Hookie

It's sunday.....

Alarm clock went off at 7:30 am. I hit snooze 3 times and on the 4th I turned it off instead. I ended up getting out of bed at 8:00. (not too bad) Im glad to know I have a natural alarm within myself. I got up and showered. When i left the bathroom to get coffee, mom mentioned that she was thinking about playing hookie from church today. I went along with that idea and proceeded to get my coffee and sit out back. We soaked up the morning sun, fed the fish by hand, and meal planned for the week.

Video of the fish kissing my fingers:

After spending an hour plus outside, we headed back in to get things done (the reason we played hookie to begin with). Got dishes done, threw out rotting fruit (lovely i know), and proceeded to put christmas decorations away (i know its a bit late, oh well).
The rest of todays happenings will continue in list/photo form
