I can't get rid of this cold. It's tricking me. yesterday I felt a lot better, the juices were flowing and I thought it was almost over. Then today i was so stuffed up and my sore throat was back. ugh.
Let's see, I haven't written in a week again. Wednesday at preschool was rough. My voice was so strained and my throat was so sore. And it was really cold and windy. I couldn't talk. I felt like I was yelling. I probably was. I got out of the cold though a few times. They needed help in a holding room so I didn't have to be a runner. Everyone is out sick. They are having trouble getting subs to cover. I didn't have a sub when I stayed home on Thursday. Martha is out so Jana is doing traffic for her and I'm doing door duty for Jana. It's a mess. Oh, on Wednesday the fire alarm went off. My last kid in the holding room had just left and I was just walking out of the room when it went off. I'm usually in the annex, so I had no idea where to go in the main building. But I heard someone yell "somebody help us!" so I just ran with them. haha it was the Fox room and they only had 2 teachers and that's a DT room so they needed help getting all of their kids out. So I just played ring around the rosie with them out in the cold for a while. I didn't know where else to go. That was rough on my cold. But oh well.
So yeah, I took Thursday off and just slept and slept. I went back to work on friday since it was just a half day. I was really tired but whatever. Friday was my sister's birthday so I convinced myself I was well enough to celebrate. We had dinner with grandma then Chrissy and I went to Sully's in Wheaton for her birthday party. I felt like crap and all the cigarette smoke was torture. I just drank loads of water and sucks on lots of mints. I knew a few of her friends, but I got to meet more that I only knew from myspace pictures. They were nice but I felt all sorts of out of place because I was sick and not interacting with them. but whatever. I left at like 11:45. I was sooo sleepy all the way home.
The weekend it was back to great clips for me. I felt like I hadn't been there in forever. I was only gone 2 weeks. We got a new washer/dryer. yes! The old one is still back there so the break room is all cramped. Plus we still have all the carpet and boxes and stuff for our updating which hasn't been done yet. There are new color coded cleaning charts and check lists and signs about goals and productivity and stuff. Looks like faith is really trying to improve the shop. I was afraid the salon would be a mess when I got back, but people were actually cleaning. Oh my. The chore chart really takes some pressure offa me. I help out with everything, but now at least other people are assigned stuff so if I dont feel like I have to do it all my own. I can be like, hey...that's your job this week.
Saturday night I went to Robs. yay I missed everyone. I was getting homesick not seeing them for a couple weeks. I was really tired and my throat was getting sore again, but we played apples to apples and it was fun.
Last night after work I went to Marshalls and Kohls looking for a new winter coat. Weather proof and preschool proof. I found one at kohls. 85 bucks. But it was originally 150 so I guess that's not bad. I just really needed one. I'm tired of layering my crappy hoodies and my coats that are too big for me now. Now I really want another new coat for going out and stuff, and a new lighter jacket because my denim one has a hole in the elbow. But I can't afford everything. At least I got what I needed.
la la la i cant stop coughing. I need to bring my laundry upstairs but I dont feel like it. I need to clean my room but I don't feel like it. I want to go to bed. So I think I'll do that. Night.
