Spring Break... Wait I am post grad

So I substitute teach you know this if you have seen my twitter feed this past week with things my students have said. Well I had bridge duty which means watch the kids on the bridge and make sure they get in the right car... Why a substitute is doing this I am not sure; for all I know they are going home with their BFF. On Friday I was wishing them all a happy spring break and the last kid turned around (I sincerely hope trying to be nice, I am giving her the benefit of the doubt) and said "You too Miss Daniel! Oh wait you don't have spring break have fun at work!" Then got into her car and left. 
Well even if I don't have a spring break this year I did get to celebrate it for my grand lil and I on Saturday. We went to lunch (Tropical smoothie it was a new place for me but more about that in a later post) and then got pedicures! It was great I have missed her so much and it was awesome getting to catch up. I got a lovely coral color for spring. (Then it was too cold for the outfit I wanted to wear to go with it on Sunday to church grrrr.) I am looking forward to the bright as well as pastel colors for this spring and summer! What are/were your plans for spring break? Or if you are a post grad, do you have something special planned for this week even though you aren't off work?

The Wonderful Life

Well this past week was very interesting... We last left I found out I might have an infection... Turns out that was correct.  I went to see my ENT doctor (Ear Nose and Throat) and she told me she would have to cut it and drain it to help it feel better.  I was warned it would be painful and it was.  I was also told that my antibiotic might mess with my stomach and it did. So the trip I was planning for the weekend did not end up happening and I did not get to go to Texas. I was sad about that. But because there is a bright side to everything if we look hard enough, one of my best friends is getting to join me on my trip to Dallas.  Hannah was sad she could not go this weekend due to previous plans but we are thrilled to get to go together! She is awesome and we always have a blast when we are together. I am thrilled I will get to mark Road Trip off of my bucket list and hopefully trying a local cuisine.  (Maybe a few more if I am lucky!)  Y'all wish me luck and here is to a great rest of the month! OH and do not forget to wear GREEN (or Orange) on Monday!  and for those wondering the Orange was what the Protestants' color instead of the Catholic's green.
Learn something everyday.

Birthday Week Gone Awry


Well this past week I celebrated my 24th birthday. I decided I was going to do 25 things before I turned 25 (the bucket list). This weekend I spent my Friday evening with a sorority sister who treats me like a younger sister. She is not my "Big Sis" but I feel like she might as well be. I will explain more later. We got all dressed up to go out and hang out with some friends. The next day I had a family lunch which was lovely.  I also had a family from church invite me to see the Wizard of Oz with the music played by the Arkansas Symphony Orchastra. It was AMAZING!!! 
I love Judy Garland and my friends know I am obsessed with The Wizard of Oz. All night I had a pain in/on my face and nose I thought I had a horrid zit coming in so I didn't think much of it. The next morning I woke up to half of a swollen face and running a mid temperature and major pain. Apparently I got an infection. So my parents and I spent Sunday afternoon in the ER. I sent a text to my lovely big who knew I was having some pains in my face Friday and told her what happened after I got home. Her response was totally her.  "Oh my goodness!!  Please let me know if you need anything!!!!" I know she would do anything for me if I needed her, even though she is an hour and a half away. So thank you Jennifer. I appreciate you being there for me whenever I need guidance or a shoulder to cry on or need someone there to listen.

Bucket List

I have added a tab called bucket list to the blog. These are 25 things I want to do before I turn 25. I plan on writing about the things as I do them. Well at least some if them... My birthday is later this week! I am excited and nervous because it is the last "young" birthday my next is 25 and that is "the wrong side of twenty" according to my lovely younger friends. -_- but I am excited about it I think... I will keep y'all updated on my progress as I go! Wish me luck!
