Yes, it refers to the holiday but it also refers to the fact that after four days away from home, I’m back at my desk watching the birds and the squirrels as I decide what I need to do today.
I finished my crocheted tea cozy and small mat for a friend’s birthday. I looked for a teapot for her but couldn’t find one I liked so may just get a box of tea to send along with the cozy. I also spent time last night surfing crochet and craft sites.
I am hoping that crocheting in the evening will help me fight the battle of the bulge. Last night, I really wanted to snack on something even though I knew I didn’t have any points left and I wasn’t really hungry. I just wanted to crunch pretzels or crackers. But I crocheted and then cam back and worked on the computer. I’ve been eating so well the past week that I don’t want to blow it now that I’m home. I’ve already eaten cereal this morning and am getting ready to open my WW points tracker and plan the rest of the day.
The workshops went well. I only have a few things on my to do list, especially since I have the whole weekend ahead as well. I’m enjoying the free time since once I get started on my dissertation research, there won’t be much of that left. Oh! The best news…I’m going to get to teach my first online course starting next week. Very exciting!
I did skip Maundy Thursday last night. Wasn’t sure I would get home in time and my church was having a supper that required rsvp. So, I stayed home, cooked scrambled eggs and roasted potatoes for us, then Bob went to a meeting. I think tonight will be whole wheat spaghetti. I told Bob I would make pineapple stuffing for Easter along with a slice of ham.
