So... last week I was able to get Friday off so that I could go to the beach to be with family. It was amazing! I think I was the happiest I've been in a while.
I left Thursday after class and drove to Corpus. I got there exhausted and ready for some sleep and some serious relaxation. Friday morning my dad and I got up and went for a morning run on the boardwalk at about 6:30am (which is early for vacation for me). It was great to be able to finally get some type of a workout in. Then we ate breakfast and gathered everything to go to the beach! Although I had to study briefly, it was less stressful since I could study by the water in a lounge chair with the sun shining (and a beer in hand if I decided).
It was so great to see my entire family for a few days and spend some time with my grandma for once. There was lots of good food and wonderful company. Two days on the beach were not nearly enough, but I'll take whatever I can get.
I drove back to Houston on Sunday and came home to a soaking wet apartment :(. A pipe had busted in the apartment above me and basically flooded mine as well. (What a wonderful present after vacation.) The ceiling in my bathroom was falling down and there was debris from the ceiling all inside my tub, needless to say the relaxation I had planned for Sunday evening did not happen. I spent my last day of "freedom" cleaning and attempting to get parts of the carpet dry!
Monday night I spent at a hotel because the carpet guys pulled up all the padding and sprayed some type of cleanser on the floor so I couldn't even get to my bed. Tuesday was a little better, and they had everything fixed on Wednesday, but my stuff is still in complete disarray. I'm hoping to get everything back in order this weekend! What a week! At least it was this week and not next week during finals or else I'd be a complete wreck! It has been quite an adventure this week, but I guess it keeps things exciting!
