My mom was back in town for one night and will be returning in a couple more nights, and left us with some great parting gifts. Not only did she bring lots of towels for us, but she left us some yummy bread, bananas, and leftovers from Olive Garden. She also treated me to Glee volume 3 soundtrack and the Power of Madonna soundtrack from the Glee episode of the same name. Let's just say I've already horribly belted out "I Dreamed A Dream" 4 times...man can those ladies sing!
But she also left us with some strawberries...yay!
We decided to dip them in chocolate frosting and it was quite delicious. I unknowingly dipped mine and made a pretty little strawberry chocolate swirl. I had to capture the lovely goodness..
Maybe I should get into the chocolating business :)
Oh and this is definitely a nice treat after a horrible case of the Mondays. Really work wasn't bad because it was Monday, but because a long culminating event happened where I had to defend my actions of being "snotty" to a coworker who continually uses and walks all over me. Sometimes being nice only threads the beautiful threads of a nice rug for everyone to say oh how nice that is and then take their cheap ugly shoes and trample over it without a second's thought. And sometimes when you realize that being nice is only enabling laziness and dependence, you have to put up that wall to protect yourself and your dignity. I only have 25 hours a week to do a job that could quickly fill up 40, I do not have time to do anybody else's job. I have also quickly learned that people do not grow up. People don't really mature. We just get better on covering up our immaturity. It's okay to be immature at times, but when it comes to a job to be done and responsibility to be taken, it's time to grow up a little.
Sorry for the rant but it's been a long time coming and I'm not looking forward to the tension that will be hanging thickly in the air tomorrow. Hopefully things get better..and if not...I have more strawberries and chocolate :)
