Bouncing Back

October 23, 2008

Being sick last week left me angry, frustrated and constantly in the outhouse, but I’ve recovered and am moving forward in full force recovery mode.

Gastric calamities will not get me down.

Things are looking up in every sense of my being…my students are studying hard for the TOEFL exam, the FLEX test is coming up soon, and I’m planning a trip to India this winter, which will be amazing.

We bought two huge turkeys for our Thanksgiving dinner and have been feeding them tons so they get nice and fat in time for the feast. We were scared at first because they started attacking each other, but now they’re friends and I’m VERY thankful for this.

I’m also thankful for the generous person who left a copy of O Magazine in the PC office…and even more thankful for the awesome pumpkin pie recipe inside.

It was soooooo good.

At least I might be able to get a job in a bakery when I go back home…making pies is now one of my favorite things to do.

A year ago I would have never thought such a thing. Time really changes everything, doesn’t it?
