This week I have really been trying to organize my offices and change things up a bit. I rearranged some of the furniture at my middle school office - giving us more space to move around. Our office is about the size of a jail cell - minus the toilet and sink. Teeny. Tiny. But, we do have a HUGE window, so that's nice. In fact, my office is about the width of one and 1/2 regular-sized windows and only about twice as long. So small. Why did they put me in the closet? ...With a desk, two filing cabinets, a refrigerator and a scale. Not to mention CABINETS that take up half the space. We are one cramped space here. But at least I have an office of my own. Last year, at one of my schools, I only had an "area". It was sort of a hallway between the office and the bathroom/teacher work room. That sucked.
Today I decided to wear a pretty ruffly top and sparkly shoes. I put on make up. I pampered myself in the shower to a nice foot spa and deep conditioned my hair. I may give myself a pedicure tonight. I fixed my computer (I think!) and watched TV. I didn't pay my bills but I am going to as soon as I get done doing this. I didn't exercise as much as I would have liked, but I got a little work out in. :) Hey, we do what we can, right.
I may go up to the trail today and walk. I want to feel good about wearing a bathing suit this summer. I don't expect to be in bikini shape ever again. I'm not counting it out, of course, just not expecting it. But I'd like to feel presentable in a nice one piece, with more definition in my arms and less jiggle in my thighs. I don't have to be perfect, just less of the mess that I am right now.
I have also been thinking on my next tattoo. I had some great things in mind at the end of last year before my Prague trip. However, I have since changed some things up and think I want something different. I am glad I didn't get it done. You know, you always have to be certain before you do something like that. Or at least I do. Small tweaks, but I think they'll really make my tattoo what I want it be. Now, when I win the 171 million dollar lottery tonight, I'll be able to pay for it.
Grace in small things:
1. This ruffly shirt that makes me feel so girly
2. pink sequins
3. Frida Kahlo sticky notes
4. not being hungry
5. Avon concealer that covered those ever-present dark circles under my eyes
I hope that you have a great weekend and enjoy some of this warm weather. It's unseasonably warm and probably due to global warming. But, I guess that means they'll open the pools earlier and we can drink pina coladas and daquiris all year round! Tiny umbrellas for everyone! :)
