[This is a recap, written on Nov. 30. 2013]
I remember that after work this day I went to visit Katelyn at Juut for a haircut. I was feeling nervous all day about this pending visit mainly because I was not sure I could handle running into my former boss. So I stopped at Byerly's beforehand and picked out a card and a small try of cupcakes. Then I had dinner with my mother at Z Pizza and while we were there one of the employees offered us a pizza that they had made but no one had claimed, so I took that with to Juut as well. It was fun coming to visit. Arriving with gifts elevated my mood and made running into people more enjoyable. I had a lot of energy and enjoyed seeing those who were there. I even exchanged pleasantries with my former boss who was surprised to see me. I am so grateful to feel welcomed there and to have overcome my fear of going back for the first time.
After my haircut I went to the 8:15 Yin class. I don't remember much now as I am writing this several days later but I know that I was glad to have gone. It felt good to have time dedicated to practice and not to rush into it after being sick that weekend.
On Wednesday, Nov. 13 I went to the 4:30 Slow Burn class directly after work, which went really well. I then went to Lunds to buy a salad and headed over to Jen's house for dinner. She made homemade macaroni and cheese which was amazing, it had peppers, broccoli, red onions and crumbled Ritz crackers in it, not to mention a sharp white cheddar cheese sauce, so good! I will have to try to recreate this on my own. Hadn't seen her for a long while, so that was fun to reconnect. It inspired future visits over the coming week (her dinner party a week later and then going to see Catching Fire). That evening she, Patrick and I played a LOTR board game. It took a little while to learn how it worked but it was fun! I was very tired by the time we finished playing, I think it was almost 11 p.m. Ceri made it home so we caught up with her for a little bit, then I headed home to sleep. I remember feeling tired the next day but I don't recall many details for the rest of the week since I did not journal daily.
