Easter and A Day Off Monday

Thank goodness for a long weekend.  I don't think I could have gotten all these essays graded otherwise!

I am sad to say that I took the black and white striped skirt out of my spring capsule.  It felt a little short for work and I was constantly tugging on it, even with tights on.  I am hoping that, during the summer months, I will feel more comfortable in it.  I really do find it cute!

Paperwork Monsters

I have been drowning in paperwork lately.  On the positive side, it has reminded me about why I'm an English teacher: I teach kids to read a text and really understand it.  Hopefully, when they are drowning in HOA contracts and Escrow paperwork, they too will be able to read and understand the finer points.

I dressed casually for church Sunday.  One, I wanted to be comfortable.  Two, I hadn't done laundry and when you are out of trousers and skirts…you are left with jeans!  The top and the cardigan don't really match, but they didn't not match either.

Top: Kohl's
Cardigan: Banana Republic
Jeans: Mudd (Kohl's)
Necklace: J.Crew Outlet

 Monday at work was a crazy day.  I wore the pink dress as a skirt, but the black sweater I wore kept rolling up a  little, so I thought it looked weird.  Oh well.

Friday and Saturday

We were supposed to have a showing today on our house.  The people never called, but they also never showed up…so we woke up early and drove our dogs around for an hour for absolutely no reason.  GRRR.

Migraines

Since about October, I have been having these horrific migraines.  Yesterday another one hit.  I took the medicine the doctor had prescribed for me and then I was out.  Six hours straight of sleeping since I wasn't able to even move after taking the medicine.  Today my head still hurt (more like a soreness than the ice-pick pain from yesterday).

Unfortunately this meant no grading or prepping for the week.  It's a vicious cycle of stress causing headaches which cause me to be unable to do anything which in turn causes more stress…well, you get the idea.

I was able to get dressed yesterday but promptly took medicine after getting ready.  Today I was able to be up and around and felt semi-normal.  Yippee!

Gray Top: H&M
Skirt: Forever21

I took this while hubby and I were driving.  I kinda felt like Ginnifer Goodwin.

I was hoping to sort of recreate her cute hair.  My pic above doesn't really do it justice.
