end-of-the-week blogging! Feb 21st

[thez]

► Pictures this week are from a 2008 trip to Royal Oak, MI (a suburb of Detroit) for a family reunion. We traveled up to a park at Lake St. Clair and went hiking, and as you can see it was actually very lovely! Other good memories of this trip: sleeping with the windows open and hearing tree frogs singing in the night; my first experience with steak and blue cheese. (The rest was rather awkward.)



► Purchased some new furniture for my apartment this week, and I guess I could have taken a picture of THAT, but this place still isn’t clean and organized to my satisfaction.

► Got to see Tiny Nephew Jake! ♥ At 9 lbs, he is less tiny now! But the poor boo has a lot of gas and is very fussy (until Aunt Z comes over and plays him like a bongo until he falls asleep). My sister is trying a few different things, and he has a doctor’s appointment next month.

► Work was Awkward as Hell this week. Let’s just say the source of the awkwardness was hired a few weeks ago and finally let go. On the bright side, I’m working on my blood technique, and the Drink Night the girls at work and I have been attempting to have finally happened on Friday. Margaritas and street tacos. Aww yesss.

► And I need to finish up here, because my parents are coming over for brunch.

► The to-do list was less successful this week, on account of being knocked on my ass two days after work this week by my period. We’ll just have to try again this week.

• 2 CE courses for cert renewal!


• TAXES!

• MORE WRITING. I would have liked to have done another piece for Catalina, but she’s newer, so the stories come a little more slowly for her.
