Wednesday Reflections #6 - A Lot of Firsts

A bulleted list might be in order here. No links. No pics. Down and dirty. (You know that's the way you like it!)

This week I . . . 

  • Rode an emotional roller coaster of "Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye."
  • Ate curry-wurst for the first time (highly recommend).
  • Held my first ever Mary Kay facial class (success!!!).
  • Went to my first ever Rugby game (and was almost hit in the teeth with a foul ball - lame).
  • Went to church.
  • Made a new friend at church.
  • Wasted A LOT of gas.
  • Led my first Deep Workshop of the Spring Semester.
  • Had a long pow-wow with Deep Programs Manager about what else I can do for Deep.
  • Had a pap smear.
  • Had an eye exam.
  • Saw Dr. Harris for a med check.
  • Got a shot.
  • Talked to Dr. P about genetic testing for breast and ovarian cancers (very emotional).
  • Also talked to Dr. P about referral to nutritionist.
  • Watched video by friend about her weight loss journey, was inspired, and cried.
  • FINALLY began reading a fiction book, The Collector by John Fowles.
  • Made dinner for the week (Tuna Noodle Cozzerole - YUM!).
  • Made oatmeal cookies (FAIL).
  • Drank currant wine.
  • Watched House of Cards. All of it.

  • Lit candles and thought good thoughts.
  • Tried very hard to practice compassion and loving kindness.
  • Was proactive.
  • Made Rice Crispy Treats (non-FAIL).
  • Began my teacher certification courses.
This week I did not . . . 
  • Exercise enough.
  • Eat well.
  • Gain weight.
  • Blog enough.
  • Have a nervous breakdown (only little tears).
  • Get enough sleep thanks to That Sprout and over-consumption of caffeine. 
  • Feel shitty about myself (thank you  Carl-Os, DPMS, and Mojo JoJo).
  • Write as much as I would have liked.
  • Wallow in longing and resentment.
Needless to say, it has been a busy week.

What did you do this week? Was it busy of slow? How do you make your use of time productive? Are there any items on my bulleted list you want to know more about? Discuss in the comments, dear friends and gentle readers!
