Of Course

I'm so thankful that I'm on vacation. Nine days off from school sounds amazing. I had so many amazing things planned for next week. I'm getting my eyes checked. I hate dilation and that dreaded question they ALWAYS ask you, "Do you need sunglasses?"

Even though my eyes are on fire, I will not take those grandma inspired plastic glasses that cover 90% of my face. "No thank you."


It's also a given that whenever I'm on a break from school, I get sick. It never fails. Every stinking vacation, I get this nasty cold that won't go away. Well, today I'm getting the first signs of a nasty head cold. My throat burns every time I swallow. It's completely appropriate since today is day 1 of relaxation.

Disinterested could be my middle name right about now. I'm so blah about so many things. I don't even enjoy reading anymore. Gasp, I know! I've been on chapter 2 of my new book all week long.

I even asked Randy how upset would he be if we didn't decorate for Christmas this year? What is wrong with me? But this Grinch just sees it as a ton of work. Since we are going to Denver this Christmas break, it feels even more daunting because I'll be putting up decorations once we're back in school (who am I kidding, I'll probably be putting up decorations sometime around Valentine's Day). Hopefully the bah humbug spirit will leave, and I'll get some jolly spirit back.

Don't get me wrong, I'm pumped about other upcoming Holidays. Like the one that involves stuffing...and pecan pie...and fried cajun turkey...and green bean casserole...and broccoli cheese rice. Man, I can't wait for Turkey Day.

I hope you have an amazing week of family, fun, and praises for your blessings.
