Finished grading the finals half an hour ahead of time in spite of being deathly ill last night and passing out after rock climbing and dinner this evening. normally i would be putting in placeholder grades and working into the wee (but not weeble) hours of the morning trying to finish. not just finished the grading either. the dishes are also done - usually i do them after i finish grading. I will be going to bed early tonight. Celebrating by eating one of my homemade chunky bars. Then maybe a session with the tens unit and then to bed early.

no  :trainwreck: tonight!

where is the "you rock!' emoticon?

  You could use  :headbang2:  or  :headbang:  or :hadron:  or  :roses:


  You definitely need a BAND for your victory celebration   :Rock:

  and you can have a victory dance as well.   :fuckyeahdance:

  After procrastinating all weekend, I finally did a load of laundry.  It'll be dry in time for my ride to work.  8)

After hours of a pounding headache despite ibuprofen, I made the coffee that's making it all better. :coffee:

  I've really been kicking ass at work the last few days.  I decided to become more proactive and start
  doing things ahead of schedule whenever I can do so without compromising freshness.  For example, I can
  make desserts ahead of time because we always freeze them anyway.  I can peel and chop raw vegetables
  days ahead of their scheduled use because we store them in buckets of water in the cooler.  Stuff like that.
  I've really been hustling lately and getting a lot done in a day, because I'd rather do it without being told.
  If I wait till a project is assigned, it feels like a chore; if I do it proactively, it feels like a WIN.  8)

This is something I've done more by default than by design, but anyway ... I've stayed in a
fairly low-skilled job that is arguably beneath my mental capacities, and that's probably been
the best course for my overall mental health.  I don't have the temperament to be any kind of
boss, or to deal with people in a service capacity, so I may be doing less than I  "should"  be doing
with my intelligence ... but there's more to me than intelligence.  :tard:

  Today at work I did my post-dinner-service chores in a different sequence, and discovered that
    I got more work done in the same timeframe by shuffling stuff around.  It was a good day.  8)

I forgot my husband's phone but luckily I had my own so I used it to film my son's preschool ending ceremony. I remembered to do a family memory.
