I had to take a quick blog break to get through a pretty intense week. As I mentioned, I had two presentations to give to two classes, two days in a row as well as a few other assignments due. They went well for the most part. Getting one of my three group members for the first presentation to do any work was like pulling teeth. I have no idea how he made it this far. For my individual lecture in my Intro class, I ditched my note cards last minute and just spoke which I think was better. The worst moment was when my professor, who’s a Doctor of Physical Therapy, called me out in front of the class on what she thought was a misspelling in my first PowerPoint slide. I politely told her that you do, in fact, spell plantar fasciitis with two i’s. She then said, “Well that’s not how I’ve always spelled it,” which is when I thoughtlessly replied, “Well then you’ve always been wrong.” It was somewhat of an awkward moment for her but self-inflicted. She told me I did a great job but we’ll see what kind of grade I get, ha. Jen helped me with my bibliography and by “helped” I mean she did the whole thing herself. She said, “Geez! When anyone in my family is in school, I’m in school too.” Anyway, the hardest part of this semester is over with only finals remaining.
Some sad news is that Jen’s friend/coworker’s husband, who was forty-eight, died of a sudden, unexpected heart-attack. It’s been sad around the office and Jen has been picking up a lot of extra work, of course. She finally got her raise (if you can call it that)… and is job hunting again. The funeral is this Saturday morning which is predicted to be icy and rainy.
This post is taking a turn for the worst, lol. I’ll end it on a fun note. Enjoy the pics above from last Wednesday, our first snow day ever! Notice our awesome snow man.
