Delivery!

I got a delivery yesterday from Temu (my new obsession) and as a result, slept like a baby. Now, I'm not sure that the pillow I got was the reason but I can't imagine it hurt. I did wake up at 11:30 and then at 3:30 but each time I fell right back to sleep. It was quite difficult to get out of bed too. At least tomorrow is Friday but it'd be better if today was. 

I also got some kitchen utensils including a set of magnetic measuring spoons (so they'll stay together in the damn drawer and I don't have to dig for the one I want all the time). I got a new water bowl thingy for walking Scout. I got a can holder for the fridge and Jim loved it and now I need to buy more. I can't think what else I got but all of it was amazing! 

My day yesterday was good until about 1:30. Around that time I got a massive headache and that was compounded by annoying emails that I had to deal with. More than anything the emails were an irritation but nothing that stressed me out and nothing that can't be dealt with. I did take some ibuprofen immediately and by the time I got home, my headache was gone. I still found it necessary to take a nice bike ride, however, to further clear my mind and it was lovely. It'd been a while since I'd been on my bike. I'm thinking I should do it again today. 

Speaking of which, I anticipate complete annoyance at the end of my day again. Reason being, we have a staff training on safety. I'm pretty sure they're going to stick us in scenarios of a school shooting and I hate these. First for the obvious reason but also because they're not realistic and every 5 minutes they change what protocol is. Additionally, they need to do these drills with the kids, not just the staff. These kids are unnecessarily drilled every freaking month (or more) on fire drills and when was the last time there was a school fire where someone was injured or killed? We've NEVER drilled on a school shooting and it seems every day there's a school shooting somewhere in the U.S. So stupid. 

Dinner tonight: I'm not sure. I might do a chicken dish with herbs and the make broccoli and rice with it. I'm ready for soup season and I'm having a hard time coming up with something to make. I'll peruse Pinterest today and see if something else floats my boat. 

And that's all I've got. Time to get a move on. Happy Thursday! Later!
