ONE...
so let me just say I have been BFFs with this lately...
I have been battling a horrible sinus infection...
and it just won't go away!!!
GO AWAY already
so I have been sucking on Ricoladrinking LOTS AND LOTS of water with lemon
wearing my glasses... YAY
and taking a nice dose of meds...
had to go back TODAY!!!
because I still feel like YUCK
so now I am on another antibiotic
and I am on steroids
que Arnold... I want to pump.... YOU UP
and a nose spray
and a higher dose of my allergy meds
and some other medicine that will shut down the mucus factory that has popped up in my sinuses
and a really nice COUGH med... really it is an ANTI-cough med...
think about it... it is NOT a cough medicine... it is a no cough or stop the cough medicine...
RIGHT???
and then she told me to rest and then I laughed...
then I got the look
and I agreed...
so
here I am resting...
blogging is resting right???
NUMBER 2
somewhere between my dry cough and my onset bronchitis I got a little award...
my principal nominated me for a spirit award...
I graduated from the very district I teach in so
I really felt honored to get this award...
So here is the official pic...
my friend sent it to me today...
she found it on the website
I think it is OK...
that is our Superintendent Dr. M
I look a little lock jaw
I was in the middle of talking to our Sup.
and we were having a good convo about my shirt
I was in the middle of letting him know
I always look this good...
when
SMILE!!!!
flash!!!
SMILE AGAIN!!!!
FLASH
ok thanks
and didn't do my
stick chin out...
tighten jaw
lick your lips
chin to an angle
pose
I told Hubs...
I am going to ask Dr. M for another pic...
hubs gave me the look...
and I knew HE knew
YEP...
I went up after the ceremony and asked for another pic...
A SELFIE
Hey...
I know my best angles...
and we look much happier...
I asked him politely and he said yes...
I even got permission to put it on my blog...
and OBVs he said YES...
when I got back to my Hubs he was laughing...
and admitted he thought I would chicken out...
ah NO
my parents thought it was only fitting for me...
I kinda like it...
THREE
had lots of meetings...
this week
and mind you
I HAVE BEEN SICK ALL WEEK...
but this meeting has to rank in my TOP 5 of all time...
just look at our agenda
LOVE IT!!!
and the snacks were delish...
well one was this hot spicy Texas FireCracker Cracker
that was not so delish
it was OH MY WORD my mouth is on fire
and I must eat chocolate to cool it off
and then when the chocolate didn't work I had to have...
I kinda had to laugh at the 130 calorie pack...
it was yummy
and just in case you are curious...
the fire cracker... cleared my sinuses for about 30 minutes
but only after about 5 glasses of water did my tongue go back to normal
FOUR
this is my class pet...
Co Co
we only get her for 2 weeks...
our education center for our region rents out class pets...
and I signed up for her...
we kinda love her...
as you know or maybe you don't BUT
Texas had an ice storm last night... pics coming in number 5
and well I left CoCo at school...
I was a little scared to take her out in the cold to get her to my house...
it was below freezing when I left school and with the wind chill it was in the 20s...
so I left her at school under a light... (in her cage)
I was super nervous about it the whole night...
THEN my phone rang...
Terry our head custodian called me to let me know my room was SUPER cold
and he was worried about CoCo...
he wanted to let me know and thought I might want to pick her up...
I rushed over and he was waiting at the front door with her...
so I didn't have to get out...
can you say CUSTODIAN of the YEAR
now CoCo is warm and cozy at my house
Y'all I love this spider...
she was suppose to go back today to the Education Center...
BUT I guess we will get to keep her next week too...
Yay for the ice closure
my kids are super bummed about her going back...
ME TOO!!!
Last time I got a tarantula from them it was one named Rosey...
I fell in love with her too...
I begged the Ed Center to let me keep her and even offered to buy her...
BUT NO...
so I know I can't beg and plead for CoCo...
it took me 2 years to rent a pet again... I was so traumatized by it
So CoCo is going back
and Hubs knowing I fell in love with this hairy arachnid
and knowing that last time I cried when they took Rosey away
has offered to get me my very own...
so even though my heart aches knowing CoCo is going back to the center and
will continue to rotate every 2 weeks to various classes
and knowing she won't get Figi water or fresh large crickets
we spoil her!!!
It helps to know that we will have our own Tarantula to spoil...
and while I have CoCo... we will continue to spoil her...
maybe I will sign up for her again and again and again and again and again and again
HMMMMM that makes me think....
(insert evil laugh)
well any who... I am now in the thoughts of a cute name for my spider...
I am thinking Hildy or Hilda or Hillary or Harriet or Henrietta
any ideas???
FIVE
thank you to Mother Nature for a beautiful ice storm...
it gave me the day off and a chance to get into the Dr again
and an excuse to get some good pics
here are a few of my favorites...
