Lisa the Grouch

The last two days haven’t been good at the place I go to for 40 hours a week.

I’ve felt like this guy lately, except for towards my husband, who I am never mad at.

I am disappointed in myself for choosing the field I have and for spending $50,000 to get a Master’s Degree that doesn’t really seem to do me any good.

I did take a positive step towards looking into a possible new path in my career. We’ll see, as I am only starting to look into options right now. All I know is that if I do seek a new career path, I am doing as much research as possible before going into it.

The silly sad face below was taken after my good day turned negative yesterday. It also represents the fact that I was sad when I heard some news from a friend in the morning.

Lunch was scarfed down as fast as possible because I was so busy at work. I had an Amy’s Light & Lean Soft Taco Fiesta and it was delicious.

After work, I drove to Trader Joe’s and stocked up. The highlight of my Friday was hearing the news that a TJ’s is going to open up much closer to me sometime next year! :)

I made this for dinner last night. It probably wasn’t worth what I paid for it, but it sure tasted yummy.

Apparently, I was in a French mood last night, as my dinner and dessert were French items. Maybe because it was comfort food?

These were just ok. Not what I expected them to taste like.

This, however, was just as I expected it to taste!

I added it to my bowl of oatmeal this morning.

I bought two boxes of instant oatmeal because I sometimes need something quicker than stovetop oats in the morning.

Craig and I hit the gym this morning. Despite the fact that my legs and feet really hurt from walking at work, I biked and lifted weights.

The rest of the day, I just want to put my feet up and read a book, so that’s what I am going to do now. Well, after I am done watching Rick Steves covering different European Christmas traditions. I am dreaming of going to Nuremberg for their Christkindlmarkt someday.
