Goal Post

Last week:

Stop by Star Struck Clothing I stopped by during the sidewalk sale because I was already downtown that morning for my acupuncture. The shop wasn't open. She had a tent set up on Mass and the store was locked up. WTF. So I have to go down there again. Next time I'll call first.

Scrub the downstairs shower Done.

Give double-unders another go I can't shake this stupid sinus headache (going on about a week now), and any sort of bouncing movement hurts. Jump rope just wasn't gonna happen.



So this week:

Make an appointment with chiropractor to have her crack my neck. Sometimes that helps with my sinus headaches, although I have no idea why.

Wrap up orientation scheduling at work. I'm on vacation next week and I don't want the orientation stuff hanging over my head. Tasks: print letters and info sheets for student packets, order the new printing of the grad student handbook, confirm room reservation details, organize department and guest speakers, email incoming students with reminders to attend, and compile my notes on my own presentation for the new students.

Maintain a strict bedtime schedule despite the fact that we have company in town this week.

I had a chiropracter explain to me once why what she was doing to my neck made my sinuses open up, but I do not remember what the explanation was. Hope your sinuses feel better soon.

Sounds like you might have a sinus infection....either that, or the wonderful heat is drying them out....

I've been wondering if I have a low-grade sinus infection. At this point, though, I want to avoid a round of antibiotics if at all possible. Time to break out the neti pot.

Someday, I'm going to go to the Sidewalk Sale. I keep telling myself this...

Good luck with the bedtime schedule! Solidarity, and all that! [fistbump]

IMO, the sidewalk sale isn't worth dealing with the crowds. Unless you buy a lot of Jayhawk paraphernalia (tee shirts, gifty-type things), there's a stunning lack of interesting stuff. I went three years in a row, thinking I was simply failing to find the awesome deals that everyone raved about. Then I realized I'm just different from the shopping demographic that enjoys the Lawrence sidewalk sale.

It was pitifully under-attended this year. I felt bad for all the poor store workers, out there in that heat for so few customers.
