Full of Blessings

So this week was far better than last!
Monday: I GOT MY COMPUTER BACK!!!! A mere 21 days without my computer. . . the man was so nice becasue he even gave it to me in the morning even though they don't open the shipment until night. I went to class, and the teacher had corrected our tests. I was dreading getting it back, because she just so happens to be the hardest grading teacher of all, and I had only answered enough questions to get an 84% even if she gave me full credit for every answer. Well, I knew that I wouldn't be getting full credit on all the answers I did answer. . . so I was expecting something like a 75% or so (being generous to myself. . . a 75%). Well, I got it back, and there on the paper was 88%. Don't ask me how it happened. I added up the points like a hundred times, and it was right, she had somehow given me more credit on all of the questions than I actually deserved. . . which I am sure was only due to the fact that everyone in my family, as well as most of my friends were praying for me that I could do well on the test. It was awesome. Thanks for your prayers everyone, they totally worked.
Tuesday: I had clinic, and let me tell you. . . it was fantastic. The girl that I am working with had a spectacular day, she was like a changed child. I was floored. . . It was a good day! In the afternoon I went to a clinic observation, which was being supervised by the same supervisor I have for my sessions. She told the student clinician I was observing that I was a supervisor in training, and that she knew that I knew what I was talking about (this from someone who never gives compliments) Tuesday night I also got a bunch done for another class during a super boring lecture. . . which is far better than just playing games online or something, like I was going to do. After class Ryan and I also went to Cheesecake factory as well. . . mmmmmm.
Wednesday: My other clinical supervisor told me that I am progressing so well. The person I am working with on accent modification is doing so well that it makes me happy every time I meet with her. Wednesday night Ryan and I spent a good hour laughing hysterically at something-or other. . . great stress relief especially on a Wednesday when I usually have my weekly breakdown.
Thursday: I got to have a relaxing day because, my client was on vacation!!! (I say this with such enthusiasm because in the 100 or so sessions I have already had with all different clients I have never, and I mean NEVER had one cancel. . . and now. . . two sessions of not having to plan, prepare, or show up. . . ahhhh, sigh of relief). I also took Ryan to Outback, because he was soooo nice and let me use his computer for two weeks because mine was broken. (don't I have the BEST boyfriend ever!?!)
Friday: made some good headway on my paper, got about 600 pages of technical reading in (which let me tell you isn't that fun!) I also got some semblance of an idea of how to write my paper too. Ryan and I also got a Netflix subscription (which is so much fun!) we watched a couple movies. . . nothing that memorable though.
Saturday: I slept in until 11:30 which is unheard of. . . then JM and I went to IHOP for breakfast and I worked on my paper. Now I am at a super nice house babysitting. It is fun, but I am ready to go home and sleep.
So that was my week, and let me tell you it was full of blessings!
