Mrs. Cranky Pants

So do you ever have days where you are just totally CRANKY.  I mean Thursday and especially Friday night, I felt like I was going to lose my mind and knock someone's head off.  I haven't felt this irritable in a long time!  I chalk it up to my subbing job this week because I seriously think the class used up every ounce of patience I could possibly have in 2 days.  I love kiddos, that's why I am in the education field but in the past I've always dealt with classes where the kids knew how to listen.  I just feel like between writing papers all of last weekend and then going straight into a stressful subbing job caused me to lose my mind temporarily. I am really hoping a weekend of fun and relaxation with my husband will cure me of this cranky feeling.  Which will allow me to face this coming week head on....3 days of subbing and my FINAL week of classes for this term.

It's MARCH

Yay for it being the month of March!!!

When I think of March, I think of Washington D.C. cherry blossoms....

This makes me homesick for the east coast...SO BAD. 

 March also means...MY BIRTHDAY!

 

My parents are coming out to visit at the end of the month for a few days, looking forward to that as well.  My sister has been the only one to visit out here in Cali...she rode out here from PA with me in June last year and then came to stay with me last September for a week while Wolf was away on a hunting trip! 

It will be nice to show them the base because they've never been to one before plus we are planning on taking them to Vegas and some other places! Should be interesting! 

Also, YAY for it being FRIDAY and my husband is HOME from his trip. Things can start to go back to normal but I will admit it was nice to spend some time by myself.

Friday Frenzy

Oh my weekend is not going to be a fun one.  I have to finish my Lit Review and start a rough draft for another paper. UGH UGH UGH. This is the hardest week yet but thankfully it's almost over and once it is, I can relax.  I think this quote best suits my situation....

 2 more weeks left then HELLO week break before I start 2 entirely new classes! 

 I am glad to be feeling back to normal today, I had a migraine for 4 days straight, which made writing a paper next to impossible! 

A few posts back I talked about cutting my hair...I've been growing it out for 2 years now and it's just gotten to that point where I can't stand it anymore. I had an appt to get my hair colored yesterday afternoon and I was only supposed to get a trim...well I chopped a little hair off, it feel so much better, plus it's hair, it will grow back! Here's a picture....

I always feel so much better after a cut and color! 

I hope ya'll have a more exciting weekend planned than I do!

Oh...Saturday

So today was actually a really nice and relaxing Saturday. I had some research for class I wanted to work on, so my husband dropped me off at Starbucks on base while he went off to the gym. I really felt like I accomplished a lot during that time, it was nice and quiet and I didn't get distracted easily! Then we went to the commissary for groceries...YIKES, that place was CRAZY. Payday was Thursday and the Super Bowl is tomorrow so you can imagine the craziness! I think today was the first time we ever bought a large amount of food since we moved out here. Hopefully it lasts us awhile. I came home only to eat dinner & write a paper...such fun! I can't wait until I don't have anymore papers or assignments, etc. I know it will be worth it when it's all said and done. So tomorrow we are just hanging out at our house, I am going to make some yummy food and we will watch the game here. Funny enough...my husband has off work Monday..because of the Super Bowl..ummm OKAY. Too bad I have to get up early and go into the elementary school at 745AM to tutor. We might go to Palm Springs tomorrow evening...who knows?? I'm perfectly okay with just chilling around here. I am going to now go curl up and watch a Hallmark movie, my fav thing about Saturday evenings anymore :)

Thursday.....almost the weekend!

It's Thursday...meaning tomorrow is FRIDAY! HELLO WEEKEND! I am so excited. Today I babysat my friends two kiddos and honestly it was great! My husband said to me last night....maybe this will make you change your mind about wanting a baby...ummm ONE I've babysat her kids before....TWO I've been around my friends/cousins babies many times...soooo yeah & NO it just made me more excited to have our own little one sometime! The day went by really quickly....and I am looking forward to doing some grocery shopping this weekend. There are some awesome new recipes I have come across on Pinterest and I can't wait to try them! YUM-O. That site is SO SO addictive! I could pin forever...food, fashion, hair, makeup, babies....etc. I'm hoping this weekend is a little more exciting than the last!

Lovely Weekend

The weekend came and went entirely too fast. Our Friday night was spent at home with our dogs and watching a few shows on TV. Saturday was much more eventful for us! Like I said in my previous post, I've been doing yoga for a little while now so Saturday morning my husband joined me in my yoga workout, which I must say was pretty interesting. Men are definitely not as flexible as women! HA!! We then went out for dinner at Outback Steakhouse, of course :) I love that place and I never can resist their blooming onion! I don't feel bad eating like that since we only ever eat out on weekends and it's usually not often! Sunday has been pretty relaxing, my husband went snowboarding with some guys from work and I spent the day cleaning and organizing! Fun, right!? Tomorrow is my first day of classes for my Masters, I'm ready for it.... I think!

Hope ya'll had a wonderful weekend and I hope you have a superb Monday!
