I tracked my points fairly well most days this week, though there was a day where I got so busy, I forgot to do so, and forgot what I had eaten for a while. I went over points that day when I finally remembered everything. I got in around half of my workouts this week. I was sick on Monday and Tuesday again- yay sinuses and allergies and the ever-changing weather in Memphis! I considered waiting it out, but decided to go to the doctor and get rid of it since I'm going out of town soon. After that, I have been back to walking/working out, so that's good. And I was hoping to make it to the gym early this morning since I wound up with a snow day, but now the gym has a rather delayed start. Oh well, I will make it there later in the day.
School was good this week. My juniors are finishing up their research papers, and while there are still some issues here and there, they have definitely improved. I pointed that out to them when they complained about all the comments I wrote on their papers (always room for improvement, you know?). My sophomores are getting a bit better at whole class discussions, though I still think I'm going to implement the talking stick method. Since they're getting to be alright at it, I think we will be able to approach the Morality topics in a more fun and critical way, so that's good. Now, to get them through this final week before break!
This weekend, I went to dinner and a play with Ashly on Friday. We had a really nice time, and the play was pretty good. It was not what I would have thought for a Shakespeare play, but it's always nice to see other interpretations I guess. Saturday, Kerry and I went for a nice, long walk in the gorgeous weather. That night, I went to Condomonium, and I just had a blast! I loved seeing all the outfits and accessories- I even bid on some earrings, but sadly could not bid as much as others did on them. Sunday, Mom, Memaw, Conor, and I had breakfast together at Stone Soup. It was so tasty, and so nice to have a family meal! Then, they helped me set up my new bed frame since the last one finally broke (it had been Pepaw's for a long time). After that, Kerry and I went swimsuit shopping. I got a cute black one- smaller size than ever before, and for the first time, I could buy one a "regular" store! After that, I went to a Young Adults Leadership meeting at Otherlands (hipster attire not required this go-round). It was really interesting to hear all that they do. I like getting more involved in this- plus it looks like some of the recruiting skills I acquired in college might come in handy :) I came home, got some dinner, put on the Oscars, and was doing fine until the power went out around 10:30. Fortunately, it came back on around 7:20, so now I can stay home, snuggled up, watching TV and browsing the internet.

Tip of the Week: Always have Neosporin at the ready. It can heal almost anything, I swear.
