11/9- I come to find a refuge in the easy silence that you make for me

Weight Loss for the Week: .5lbs

I tracked well again this week, got in most of my workouts, and I didn't binge/splurge much now that we're past one holiday.  Two more big ones to go!  Speaking of that, we have less than three weeks to go until Thanksgiving which is just crazy. I'm excited for it, but I am also hoping that I get everything I need to do done before it gets here.

School was fine this week, a bit crazy, but fine for the most part. All my classes finished their units and tested at the end of the week, so that was good. My seniors are coming right along (begrudgingly) with their research papers. And so far, I'm keeping up with all the additional grading. Once they're done at the end of the semester, it will start all over again since my juniors will begin theirs at the start of next semester. My sophomores are doing well considering how often we were in the Chapel instead of class this week. This upcoming week might feel like a shock to them.

Wednesday evening, I went to a friend's baby shower and had a nice time catching up with so many friends- including former teachers and Girl Scout troop leaders. Friday evening, I finally got myself a new camera!!! It's so fancy and fun! Then, I went over to MK's to visit with her, Gigi, and her family. We had a lot of fun chatting and all as we always do. I got up bright and early yesterday to help Michelle with her yard sale. While I was a bit sore at the end, I enjoyed it- I like seeing all the items and perusing all the books :) Then, Mom and Memaw and I went to lunch before heading over to Hallmark to check out all their Christmas items for the season. We had so much fun! Last night, I went to see Melissa's belly-dancing class performance. It was really good! We had a nice time watching all the dances- and being treated to some Middle Eastern food :)  This morning, a group of us went to Stone Soup for breakfast after Mass. Then, I came home and just conked out for awhile. Finally, I made myself start getting ready for the school week and start taking care of chores around the apartment.

Now, time to enjoy a little more "Psych" before heading back to bed.
