Feeling good on a Monday

Monday, December 8, 2008

It is very abnormal for me to wake up in a good mood on a Monday! I think it was partly because I'm no longer working at my on-campus IT job (I'm now a full time assistant preschool teacher) and partly because of my adorable kitties who slept with us all night and woke me up at 5 am with kisses! I just can't get enough of them!!

As I mentioned before, our grocery stock is running verrrrry low, so breakfast was kind of a strange concoction: A piece of 12 grain toast with cinnamon & raisin peanut butter, blueberry preserves and dried cranberries.

It was really very good and kept me full for a long time!

I've never worked at the preschool on a Monday, so I was a little nervous- I didn't know if the kids would either be tired from a weekend of fun or hyper from a weekend of little to no activity. Turns out they were.... normal. Some hyper, somem tired. However, the impending snow storm definitely had them excited (I'll admit, I was excitable myself).

Lunch was one of my delicious salad creations made with random things found in the fridge. The last of my romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, imitation crab meat, onions, artichoke hearts, feta cheese and a crumbled wasa fiber cracker for crunch. Dressing was a drizzle of greek vinaigrette.

I also ate an orange, left over from the kids' lunch. (Not pictured).

After work I ran some errands, played with the kitties and CLEANED. I have some friends staying with me us this weekend (graduation party!) and I wanted to get a head start on the dusting/vacuuming, etc. It looks awesome in here now.

Well, I think I will surf the net for a while before Gossip Girl starts. That is, if Pippi lets me. She sometimes makes it hard...

Oh Pippi! My cats do that too but of course they're massive and cover the keyboard completely! :)

Pippi is adorable! Couscous (my kitty) like to do that too but he's huge.
