Thursday was a bad, bad, day!

Have I mentioned how badly I hate February? I wish we could have an 11 month year. Thursday took the cake. Wednesday night as I got home from work, I somehow managed to trip and land on the corner of the wall, left wrist first. Well Thursday morning it was in excruciating pain. I ended up going to quick care, and found out I broke a bone in my hand. It was so swollen that they didn't cast it, but wrapped it with a splint, advising me that I needed to come back in a week, get another x-ray to see if I needed to get a hard cast or not. Now of course this doesn't bode well for a hair stylist that needs to use BOTH of her hands, and being the stubborn girl that I am, I don't let anything dictate what I do, so naturally I've been still trying to do hair, which has made things worse. Well after quick care I ran to work, and wasn't able to take anything for the pain, so I'm cranky and in a ton of pain and emotional. Then at work I've been having some issues with a fellow teacher, and felt thrown under the bus. I won't get into details, but by the time I had left work, I had shed quite a few tears. So when I get home from work, I was ready for a long nights sleep, which never comes easily for me. But at 11:00 I get a text from Jon, asking me if I heard that my beloved Adam Carolla radio show had been cancelled.
I think that was the worst news of the day. I love that show. It's been my morning routine for almost 3 years. I enjoy the show so much that I podcast it to my ipod, and listen to the missed episodes. Needless to say, I feel lost now. By the end of the day I had had enough. So Adam, I'll miss you like crazy. Luckily he is doing his own podcast so it is a small glimmer of light, even if it's not quite the same.
On a brighter note, on Tuesday my wonderful class did something so amazing for me. I'm ashamed to say they were witness to some of my tears on Thursday, and they got me a wonderful card Thanking me for all I've done for them. They also got me a gift card to get a massage, and on top of that one of my students makes custom furniture, and her and her boss made a roll-about for me. It's SO nice. It's perfect for all my supplies. It was such a thoughtful thing for my class to do for me. I am so lucky to have these 13 women in my class. They are so awesome, and I don't feel like I deserve such a great class. So to my class THANK YOU! You've enriched my life so much!

Hey, I totally would have stalked you first and actually you were the reason I got a face book account but, I'm such a retard I couldn't even remember how to log in...let alone use it. I am trying to learn. I just barely started blogging and I hope we can keep in touch better. I know you are crazy busy. Anyway, I am so glad you found us.
