Thursday was just the absolute worst day I've had in a while. There were issues with both of the students that I tutor and I was getting so frustrated. I started telling Shawn about it when he got home from work and just broke down crying and sobbing. He felt really bad :( I didn't feel like cooking supper, and he wasn't going to the gym, so we got gourmet burgers from a place downtown and brought them home and ate them while watching Game of Thrones. Friday's tutoring went a bit better, but not a lot. I actually didn't end up tutoring the girl because she was having a melt down in the guidance counsellor's office when I got there :S Saturday I had to work my lovely 3-6 shift. I did get a nice surprise, though - my manager Linda was asking if I liked frappuccinos from Starbucks because they had them half off or something and she had never tried them before, and then she went and got us each one :) Delicious! They were supposed to be doing renovations on our store starting today but the mall won't approve the plans for some reason [even though a store in another mall, owned by the same company, got the exact same renos!] Anyway, that means that I have to work next Saturday 5-9:30. I think Shawn and I might go visit his grandparents Sunday and Monday [Monday is a holiday]. I would have liked to be able to go Saturday so we could go shopping as I need some new shorts for summer, but oh well. Also, Shawn's mum just moved into a new apartment so we'd like to go see it. After my 3 hour shift Saturday Shawn and I drove halfway home and met up with my family at a restaurant for supper. It was an early Mother's Day get-together. Mum is having a colonoscopy this week and so could only eat white fish, chicken, and plain potatoes yesterday, which is why we got together Saturday. The siblings, Shawn, and I all got together and got her a Benjamin Moore gift certificate so she can paint the living room and kitchen, and I said I'd help her with it whenever she's ready to do it. When we got back from supper a couple of Shawn's friends from work wanted to go out for a few drinks so we went to a pub. I had 2 whiskey sours and Shawn had 2 thunder mugs of beer [32 oz each!] It was a really fun time :) Sunday we just lazed around all day, watching movies and stuff. We were getting desperately low on food so we went to the convenience store and got some snacks. We have to go get groceries tonight as the fridge and cupboards are practically bare. About a month ago I made us a budget so we can try and save some more money, and a couple weeks ago we really started following it. We have jars with cash in them and that's what we use to buy stuff. We cheated quite a lot last week, though [using our debit cards], so hopefully this week we'll do better haha
