The person two cars in front of me in the drive-thru paid for my coffee this morning. That's the first time that kind of thing has happened to me, and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy.
suzv - Their order took foreeeeeever, so the barista said it was their apology for holding up the line. I wasn't in a rush to get anywhere so the wait wasn't a bother at all, but I think it was really nice of them to think of that.
suzv my sore throat was so awful and none of the medicine was working so I decided to give up sugar and see if that helped. I've read that bad bacteria feeds on sugar, and prevents the body from fighting infection effectively. My throat finally feels better so I think it's working. Either way, it's better for me to at least cut back.
@emtmissy not gonna lie, my husband has offered my ice cream and cookies a few times. I think he was worried about me. Lol. Or maybe just his self preservation?

katespade- what a nice surprise! Also, how do you and suzv forget about Girl Scout cookies!?! That's an impossible thought to me (especially since I have yet to get my cookies this year since they aren't at the store will I usually go and we missed the neighbor kid when she came around). Thin mints are the best!
amaranth- way to go! I hadn't heard of that...maybe I should have cut back last week and this cold would be gone.
We had an unexpected showing today. I'm hoping it went well! They were here for 30 min and said they would be in contact with our agent.
Vent: why do people not plan more in advance??? I got 2.5 hrs notice...our house is clean but there's always a ton of tidying and putting away before a showing (like you wouldn't know a toddler lives in our house unless you look in the downstairs closet). So stressful and it happens all.the.time...and always when DH is at work.
I'm relaxing the rest of today...dinner is leftovers and I will be in bed at 8 tonight! Feeling better but still a little sick.

My first day was good today! It was a lot of Powerpoints and learning but very interesting. I feel like I'm understanding it pretty well though, so that's good! We're training all week. We should be getting some "hands on" training later in the week which is good. The person conducting the training is pretty good (her job is training, she isn't from the department.. she flew in from our main office) and the other person doing the training (from the department) was actually an old supervisor of mine I liked working with! So it's been good so far and I'm super excited about it!
Yes it is, unfortunately. But, we have another showing tomorrow evening! Today's showing is interested and our low offer from a couple weeks ago might be back in the works with a higher offer. Things are starting to move in the right direction! So ready to be moved (but not ready or wanting to actually do the "work"...packing, moving, unpacking).
