So Thanksgiving week was pretty crazy!
Monday our office was open to students but we had no advising apts, which was great! Tuesday and Weds we were closed for Students but Apes and I were still there working. Our system was revamped all of last week so I'm kind of interested to go in Monday and see what they have done to it! Hopefully it's all back up in working order.
Tuesday morning Apes and I had the opportunity to go to a Professional Development Seminar we went to one on Meyer's Briggs Personality Types and how to better interact with others. It was really interesting! And alot of fun!!
Apes has been telling me that I was a certain type for the past year and what do you know she was right! Hello, My Name is Charity and I am an ESFJ! :)
The only bad thing about the meeting was that it was when I was really getting sick with my Sinus Infection and double ear infection in both ears so I spent the whole three hours popping halls and trying to pop my ears open so I could hear better. I'm sure people wondered why I was making such weird faces when I did that but oh well!!
After our meeting we got to go out to lunch together for the first time! I think I posted that pic allready but it was alot of fun! Spaghetti's has a really calm ambiance and super good food! After that we stopped at Starbucks and got something warm to take back to the office to sip on. Mercy it was cold outside! I finally got myself one of those super cool Plastic Venti cups with straws that you can wash and re-use. It had a Christmas Straw. I couldn't resist. I love a good water bottle!!
Weds am I went to the Dr for my annual check up and got a new thing of antibiotics since mine were clearly doing NOTHING. Apes and I ordered in Pizza from Pizza Hut for lunch since it was super nasty outside. It was sleeting and just plain gross! We tried the new Pizza with the bread bites as the crust that are filled with cheese. Don't know what it was called but WOW was it good!!!
We ended up leaving early at 2, since the whole place was dead our boss let us go home early :) Love her!!!
SO I went and got my keys to my apt, moved two things in and then headed home for the farm. I was about dead by that point.
Within 10 mins of getting home i had changed into my jammies had a pony tail going and was curled up on the couch with a blankie and that is where i stayed for 4 hours. Hacking away. I was so miserable it wasn't even funny.
Thanksgiving day Mom went into town to hit up Wags since we were Moving friday and wouldn't shop. I stayed home in bed untill about 3 pm when she woke me up and told me we'd be eating within a hour. It was good to finally get some sleep. Needless to say I stayed in my jammies all day long and it was fabulous.
That night I read an entire book and that was about it!!
Friday we moved.
Saturday I finished putting stuff away and since I can't have Direct Tv at my new apt, wrong side of the building, sniff sniff, I have no tv untill Comcrap comes Tuesday so I busted out Season One of Greys Anatomy and watched half of that and then I watched 27 Dresses that evening.
Woke up today, Sunday, and was still pretty snotty and hacky, so I decided not to inflict that upon anyone at church, I hate it when people come sick and share their germs or just sit there and make noise during the service its very distracting. Pet Peeve of mine. So I stayed home and took a lovely nap this afternoon!
Now I am thinking of busting out my ipod and listening to a sermon I have been meaning to listen to for awhile and then my weekly Sunday night call to my folks. Plus some more Greys :)
Even though this week wasn't perfect it was exactly what I needed. Break from Students and Faculty a little time spent with my family, and peace in my home finally. Two weeks ago I felt like I was barely holding on by a thread, and now, even still sick, I feel revived and rejuvenated like I can make it through the end of the semester after all! I kept telling Apes last week I was just going to get the crap all out of the way in one week and then after that it was going to be smooth sailing.
Ahoy Matey :) Climb aboard!!
