To-do list
This is what I planned to do on vacation and what actually got done:
organize my house and give it a good scrubbing (I did, but it didn't last. Today I bought a new, much smaller desk so I have stuff everywhere that I am trying to organize. Plus the office/master bath is now being transformed into an actual bathroom so all office related materials are all over the place, trying to find a new home)
finish shopping and wrapping for x-mas (I did this, too, but only because my mom wrapped all the presents that I left at her house. Including her own present, which I had to unwrap and rewrap for a little suspense. I got lazy at the end and used many many gift bags.)
go back up to my room to get it organized and finish grading (Nope. I did nothing school related. Not a thing. Wednesday morning when we went back to school I still wasn't completely sure what I was going to teach that day. AND Wednesday morning there was a meeting I didn't even know about because apparently I was the only person not called. I found out just before and definately could have used that time to work on my room.)
write lesson plans so I can maybe get ahead a few days (One: read section of chapter 6 and discuss. Looser.)
read read read (I don't think that finishing a short book that was started months ago counts. I also don't think that reading Olive the other reindeer counts either, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading that to three of my favorite people. I'm still disappointed that we never made it to Eloise though. I do so enjoy drawing out my 'rawthar'. )
cook, and bake- recipes with long complicated recipes and lots of chopping (A little Christmas cooking. One not too complicated but yummy soup. One steak and cheese sandwich ring that took about five minutes to prepare and got absolutely amazing reviews. I spend hours creating the creamiest creme brulee and its so so. I throw together some roast beef and cheese in bread and it doesn't even last five minutes. Crazy family.)
get a haircut (No. Weirdly, two people at school asked if I had done something different with my hair. And I ran into someone just today who said he doesn't even know what I look like because I look different every time he sees me. That last part doesn't really have anything to do with a haircut but I threw it in simply for interest value. )
