I tracked well again this week, and I got in most of my workouts. I even tracked all the food from eating out and all the Halloween goodies, but those used up almost all of my weekly points. Hopefully, since the holiday is over (and I have no goodies now), it will be a better week for weight loss and all that.
School was good this week- a bit crazy, but good nonetheless. My World Lit and Theology classes spent some time working on research papers/projects for me. I am hopeful that they will turn out well since I've given them class time to work on them and ask me any questions they have. Friday was Halloween- and a Jeans Day. It seemed like a recipe for disaster, so I decided not to fight it. My juniors went to hear a speaker. My sophomores got to do research the whole period. And my seniors got to watch the horror movies that they made for my class. I loved the horror movies. I LOVED THE HORROR MOVIES. Most of the kids listened to my advice and thoughts about making an effective horror movie, and (given that they're in high school and had limited time and budgets) they turned out pretty well.
Wednesday, after the soon-to-be new owner of the Pontiac came to look at it, I hung out with Mom and Conor, and we watched a few TV shows while having dinner. It's been awhile since we've done that, so it was nice. Thursday, Sean came over for our weekly date night. After we went out for dinner, we carved our pumpkins! It was gooey, and sticky, and so much fun! I was glad Sean was happy to carve a pumpkin with me- I am all about the holidays, and it's good that he's cool with that. Friday, after school, I saw the godkids in their costumes before getting some dinner with Mom. After dinner, I went to a Halloween party at the Powers where we proceeded to play Cards Against Humanity- fun at first, then I started getting really sleepy (teacher problems).
Yesterday, I slept in until like 9am. I know that doesn't sound late, but I am usually up by 7am on the weekends, so it was late to me. I went to the Dixon and Stone Soup with Sunshine. It was such a lovely day for a walk around the gardens. And some chili at Stone Soup was a good way to warm up afterwards. I took a nap after that (must have needed the sleep). Last night, Kerry and I got a bite to eat, and then we hung out and watched "Elf" (it's after Halloween, we're allowed). It was a nice night. This morning, I went to Mass and some friends were there which was nice. We all went to fellowship after Mass. Conor and I had lunch, and then Mom and Memaw joined us to see "The Judge." Then, it was back to grading and prepping.
Now, to double check that I am actually ready for school tomorrow.
