Like, seriously. Ever.
I got my Christmas/Chanukkah/Solstice present from them, early, because they thought it might come in handy during this stressful time of wrapping up the Semester of Doom. It came in two packages - a long, skinny rectangular box wrapped in festive paper, and a cute kitty-themed gift bag.
The box contained this, which I have already used on my constantly sore neck, shoulders, and back:
The bag contained these, which I have yet to use (but am looking very forward to trying):
Much stress relief is to come, I'm sure.
I also went shopping with the amazingly fashion conscious Schiavona, who helped me pick out some really good blouses, sweaters, etc that I can wear while student teaching. I'm sure I could use a lot more (like an entire wardrobe), this will help me out a lot. I have to dress nice every day starting in January, for student teaching, and most of my professional clothes are old/worn or don't fit me. I have some really nice things that don't fit, and for some reason I fell into that "but I really love those pants" trap. I plan to go through my closet and pack away the things I don't wear to put in storage or donate. No sense in keeping that noise around.
Also, I am going to get my tattoos, tomorrow. I am very happy about this, and I'll be sure to post pictures.
Now, back to productivity, with some gusto, this time!
