What I did//
This week was all about work and rest. We were doing this intense, I don’t know, they are calling it a retreat, but it is wayy too intense for that. There is nothing relaxing or rejuvenating about it. It has been rough – between the back pain and the subject matter it’s just been a lot.
It’s also just been a continuation of cancelling plans, I was planning to host a team dinner since we were actually going to be in the same town for once but I am not really cooking at the moment so I postponed that, but I have no clue when the next time we’ll all be in the same town again.
I also missed Pancake Tuesday, I think I’m going to have to have pancakes for dinner this weekend, because I am astonished and appalled at myself.

I’ve been exclusively lying on the couch watching Criminal Minds every minute of not being at work this week.
It’s been great.
Have a wonderful weekend,
