School started back up for me today and all of the things I had to get done flooded back to memory as I sat down in class this morning. The last couple of days have been out of my normal routine. Of course, Monday was a holiday and due to Preston's conference on Tuesday, I was unable to go to Bible Study. So today was back to the grind.
When I arrived at school, I stalked the parking lot and found no space. I ended up parking across the street, which I do quite often. I thought I might get lucky today and find a spot in the lot...but no such luck. Anyway, I was running a little later than I like, so I rushed across the street and hustled up the stairs to room 154. But, in my hurry, I walked right past the door of the classroom and tried to enter the room via a small alcove just past the door. The little alcove give the illusion of a door...but the point is, I was totally spaced out in my rush to get to class on time. It was kind of comical.
When I sat down, I opened my binder to check my syllabi for both my classes. I then remembered that last week in my nursing professor gave us a take home quiz, that I had not yet completed and I counted the weeks until all of my projects for that class are due. Only three weeks left! Crunch time is here.
By the way...we had a wonderful fund raiser over the weekend for the Sparks. Julie Wiley was so kind as to bake a ton of cookies and put them in bags for my little Sparks to sell. They really want new Sparks T-shirts and we were hoping to get about half of the money that we needed with this fund raiser. We thought we would need about $200 for about 20 shirts. Praise the Lord, we raised $371! Isn't that great! We have money to put in the bank for the next time we want to do something special. And these kids really deserve it. They are working hard and I have been really pushing them. I am really proud of them...and we have Christmas coming, so let the tough work begin. We are hoping to do four songs for Christmas! Ambitious? Yes, but they are capable!
I think I forgot to mention this in my last post, but I had my eyes tattooed over the weekend. Yes, crazy me! I had eyeliner permanently tattooed on my eyelids. I know what you are thinking. Yes it hurt at first, but they provide a really good topical anesthetic and once it really sinks it, you hardly feel it. When they got to the outside corner though, I could definitely feel it and it didn't feel good. I am still a bit swollen...my DH refers to me as "Puff Mama". But, the most irritating thing is that my contacts feel super scratchy since I had it done. I have been having to take my contacts out and wear my glasses and awful lot. I am hoping this improves. I want to just rub, rub, rub my eyes and I can't. It feels like little pieces of sand are in my eye. Talk about irritating. I just hope I can make it through church tonight without tearing my eyes out. Overall, I am happy with the procedure. I have to go back for a touch up in a month...ouch! How convenient it will be when all is said and done! Oh, the things we do to be beautiful!
