This week was really busy! Which I feel like is going describe each week until I go on Christmas break. There is Recital prep galore, and prep for my own solo concerts. It's just a really busy time of year for me. #MusicianProblems
But! At least I get to enjoy the beauty of my trees and decorations! I have no idea why my phone makes the lights like this when it's dark outside and I take pictures of my tree, but it is really pretty! My students loved being able to decorate Miss Charity's tree. And while some of the branches have so many ornaments on them that the branch is hanging lower than it should be, it still looks great to me! And a piano mom gave me a great idea of how to get them to help UN Decorate the tree, which is what I really hate doing, so I'm excited to give it a try during the last week of lessons!
It snowed a little bit on Thursday, but it iced a lot. My Bible study is Thursday mornings and I knew the weather was forecasted to not be great. But the times the weather people say it's going to snow and be terrible and I think ok, well church will probably get cancelled so I'll just not turn on my alarm. And then I get up and there is no snow. So I wasn't going to miss out on bible study and fall for their "the weather will be terrible" story once again. I got up at 6 am when my alarm went off, and looked outside and I could see a sheet of ice. And I thought, nope. Nope. Not going to bible study. So I went back to bed and attempted to sleep. That didn't happen. I finally got up and got ready for the day and texted my leader to let her know I wouldn't be there. And they were cancelling bible study right at that moment. So I was excited I wouldn't miss anything!
I have to say I really didn't know what to do with myself with all the time I had on my hands. My Thursday schedule is not sitting at home in the morning, so it was weird!
The roads finally melted and cleared off just in time for me to head out to my chiropractor apt.
This picture could be entitled the calm before the storm.
Or me, before I got violently ill.
I needed to go grocery shopping but hadn't, so I picked up some food at Taco Bell.
I had some soft tacos for dinner, thankfully after I was done teaching, and within a short matter of time I went from feeling fine and good to NOT.
Food Poisoning.
And so went Thursday 10:00 pm to Friday 3:00 am when it finally completely exited my system.
It was bad.
I kept wondering when it was going to be over and when my stomach would quit hurting so bad, and it just kept happening.
Ugh. #SoftTacosOfDeath
Also, let me just say that laying on your bathroom floor because you're so sick is not the ideal thing to do mere hours after getting your back and neck adjusted at the chiropractor.
Thankfully after resting, HYDRATING, and having crackers on Friday, and getting a solid 12 hours of sleep Friday night, I woke up Saturday back to my normal self. Which is a huge blessing. I live with a chronic illness that affects my digestive system. So when I get sick it can be really hard for my body to bounce back and go back to working properly. So I was very grateful that the sick part was just the food fighting it's way out of my body.
I have no pictures of this, But Saturday I was actually feeling so good that I put makeup on and went out into the world! What?!! I try really hard to have Saturday be my day of rest since Sunday is full of church and then cleaning and prepping for the week. but I was ready to do something and there was a homeschool craft show happening saturday that I usually go to every year. So I went out to that and then ran some errands and did a little shopping.
Sunday was church, and errands and cleaning. I had one of those mornings where I thought I had all the time in the world and then was almost late to church. So no pictures from Sunday either!
And that was week 46 and I'm finally caught up!! WOOT WOOT!!
