After a period of near constant complaining, I feel like I need to do something to remind myself that the world is not ending. The following is a list of things for which I'm thankful:
New Friends!
I've said it before, but these women are awesome! I've never been in a work environment where I felt instantly supported and had people who would go out on a limb for me. Although this isn't a fabulous photo, here are my ladies! We went out for Ruvi's birthday and were able to relax for an evening.
Old Friends!
I've been able to keep in touch with so many wonderful HESA friends on a regular basis. I can appreciate that they'll have much less time during their academic year, but there's something to be said for people who can get me on the phone for over 15 minutes. We may be in different parts of the country and our lives, but we're the same at the core.
This Manicure
*see previous post for awesome nail details*
My nails are still going strong! Strong enough, in fact, that I was able to puncture the film of a Lean Cuisine with my nail when I didn't have a knife. Ruby Nails is totally worth the extra money.
Oldest Friends
I was able to grab dinner this week with one of my UConn friends. It was so nice to sit down with someone who knows me since the beginning of my college journey. We can point out how much each other has grown, and it's wonderful to have a reminder that there is a life outside of Student Affairs. Also, I'll use any excuse to eat the chocolate fondue at Melting Pot!
Good Country Music
Is there anything that can't be fixed by driving with the windows down listening to Chris Young? Right now, there isn't. Happiness, heartache, relaxing, friendship: I can always find a country song to reflect my mood.
