Day 9

Today has been mostly uneventful. I worked a little, but I also tried to rest and take care of my face. My eyes are starting to blacken up now from the inside corner. I figured it would be worse by now. I had therapy this afternoon which was mostly spent talking about my face and all the fun things I’ve felt since then.

My Thursday night championship team has a game tonight. My “favorite” is picking me up and driving me so I can keep taking the pain medication. If I don’t take it, my face doesn’t feel too great. I’m glad I get to go, but talking hurts my face so yelling likely isn’t in the cards. I’ll just be the quiet stats girl. Hah.

I’m in an okay mood today. Nothing too great or too bad, just steady. Face hurts and I’m tired from all the sitting around. Hopefully, I can be a little more active tomorrow.

Day 8

Yeah. It hurts. Not as bad as I figured it would. It’s interesting how when I look at this picture of my face, it doesn’t look that bad. I wonder if I saw this picture, but it was someone else, if I would think the same thing. Most people who have seen this picture have said it looks really rough. It was. That ball was hard, was hit hard, and hit me right in the face.

I’m feeling a lot of things today. Stupidity for putting myself at 3rd in the first place simply because someone adamantly suggested it. I knew better, but I did it anyway. Thankfulness for the people at the game who jumped to my side and helped take care of me. Luck as had I not been wearing sunglass or had my head been turned slightly a different way, things could have been much worse. Empathy for the poor guy who hit the ball. A teammate told me the guy was visibly upset and his father told me today he had to console him because he was very very upset. And many others I’m not going to go into.

SILVER LINING!!! I’m almost caught up on Bachelorette. I was starting to be told to go rest every time I responded to work emails, so I figured they can’t ALL be wrong. After this, I catch up on Rookie Blue. Well, my favorite may come over tonight though, so maybe I’ll be watching something we both like. We’ll see. Oh and they gave me Percocet.

I’m alive. I’m recovering. I’m medicated. Good day. Good day.

Day 7

money-is-no-more_o_504859

It took a whole whopping 7 days to hit a bad mood. Womp womp. This mood is acerbated by the fact that I have not been very financially smart over the last few months and now it’s biting me in the ass. There seems to be so much to focus on that I can’t understand how some people have it all together. You have to think about finances, retirement, health, fitness, beauty, work, friends, family, etc. I start to focus on one and slip in the others. Maybe if I could afford to pay people to focus on things for me… alas, I cannot.  

Money can’t buy happiness, you say? I say you’re ridiculous, shut up, and sit down.

Oh, I should mention I got hit in the face with a softball tonight. Was playing 3rd (don’t ask why), hard hit took a bad bounce right into my face. Broken nose. Womp Womp. Here’s a pic and I imagine it will get worse before it gets better:

Day 6

Today my custom built desktop decided to have a fit. I turned her on and she went into a strange disk recovery screen for Windows 8. After quite a while, she did some weird black screen, white text super scrolling speed demon shit then proceeded to boot Windows 7… which I have not used on this machine since 2013. UGH. Why is she doing this?! Now, I’ve got to try to find time to fix her, but it’s going to have to wait. I love to listen to music on her because she has the best speakers in the house. Ugh. #firstworldproblems

It was a hot one out today. Well, I haven’t been outside since 7:30AM, but it was hot then and weather.com  is saying it’s 94 degrees out. I was supposed to play softball, but I decided to sit out as I’m still sunburned and generally just drained from this weekend’s superb activities.

Started a new 8 day today! Feeling a little sluggish and still haven’t met my health and fitness goals, so I’m getting back on that horse and riding it for 8 full days to get back in shape. My birthday weekend was fun, but MAN it did a number on my progress. 🙂

Wound up going to see “Ant-Man” with some friends! It was good!

That’s all today. 🙂

Day 2

Day 1 could not have been more perfect. I went shopping for a birthday outfit and came up with this bad boy! LOVE IT!

I also had my hair trimmed and blown out. It’s actually still amazing looking despite being slept on. Unfortunately, the blow out is going to end in a short bit when I color my hair. It’s been a couple months and is needed. New year of life and new hair! Can’t go wrong with that.

Dinner last night so AMAZING. 12 wonderful friends came out to wish me a happy birthday. This picture of the whole group isn’t the best picture, but I still adore it. We went to Landini Bros. in Old Town Alexandria, VA. I had a great time, everyone else said they did too, so I call this a success!

I’m feeling so good today. I’ve got a softball game tonight against one of our rival teams… it can get a bit nasty so here’s hoping for a calm, fun game tonight. No rain in the forecast! WOOT! Rain lately… sheesh. SO many games cancelled I can’t even talk about it.

30 baby. Starting off better than I could have imagined!
