The high of the last week was: Watching the Superbowl! I had to get up today (Monday) and go to a bar at 7:00 am to do it, but it was so fun. I am not a huge American football fan, and I prefer the Niners over either of the teams that were playing, but it was so nice to have a taste of home. I love traveling, and seeing other cultures and trying to learn languages, but dang, sometimes it is nice to have people around you who you can talk about San Francisco burritos with!
The low of the last week was: I am still struggling to get into a routine this year. I have been working out a bit here and there and have been getting some admin things done that need to be done, but I don't feel motivated to really dig in deep. I made a list of daily tasks a few days ago and I am checking them off each day in order to try to get my habits on track again, but it has been difficult lately.
Something I marked off my to-do list was: I started looking into whether or not I am going to keep my professional licenses. If I do want to, I need to pay and do a bunch of continuing education by March 15, which kind of has me dragging my feet. I have been putting off the decision and I got a little bit closer (but still have not made the jump yet). I also got a bunch of travel planning done for April and have made forward progress on some plans for August as well.
The book I am reading is: I just finished Nicole's book Inhale, Exhale, which I enjoyed (I will not spoil it by saying any more than that!), and I started What Kind of Paradise, which I am liking so far as well. I am on a reading roll at the moment!
The best thing I spent money on was: I paid the final payment for the Alaska cruise, after rerunning the price and getting it for about $700 cheaper than the original price (pro tip: always double check the price of your cruise before paying in full, as they will honor lower pricing). So it was still a big chunk of change, but hey, I am happy that I can now buy $700 worth of drinks instead. Just kidding!
Plans for this week include: This week I will complete my comprehensive health exam (I did about 75% of it last week but still have a few tests left to do), I have two meetups scheduled and I plan to do a couple of hikes!
