Tuesday Tidbits

Pretend I have a really cute Tuesday Tidbits button! If someone wants to make me one I will love you forever and possibly send you some beauty items....jussayin. Mini secret giveaway goin on right here!

Hey hey hey guys! I'm so peppy and happy today even BEFORE my coffee today, and here's why:

~My Public Safety driver today was the one who calls everyone "hun" and whose car smells like coffee. Seriously, it was like straight up Starbucks scent this morning, and I was in dire need (only just now am I getting my daily dose of coffee!) so I was almost tempted to reach over and pretend that "oh, I thought that was my cup! Whoops, sorry!" But I didn't. Round of applause for self control, please.

~It was a really positive day for everyone in physical therapy today- the other guy who injured his foot and had previously been wearing an AirCast like I am now finally took his boot off and is walking without it! You go boy! His bruises are every shade between black and purple, I swear. I didn't know there were that many different colors on that end of the color spectrum....

ANYWAYS!

Livin' up dat PT lyfe.

~I had to be put in the torture tub again today, but apparently it was only 45 degrees, which the guy who works the tub area says "is too warm." So of course he was taking shovels of ice and dumping them in the tub, but he didn't dump them on my foot again today, so that made me exponentially happy. It was bearable today & there were no cold-water anxiety attacks, thank goooodnezz. I was so proud of myself for putting up with it comfortably, unlike on Thursday.... Another impressive thing I did today is that I picked up a cup and a half of marbles with my toes, and it took me a lot less time than usual because my sausage toes have finally stopped swelling so much! This happened over the weekend and made me super happy. My foot looks normal when by itself, but then you put it next to my un-sprained foot and it's practically purple. Gross.

~Most importantly of all, on my journey to the torture ice tub of Arctic death, they got me to walk. On both my feet. At first I only had one crutch, and since I wasn't wearing a shoe on one foot, it kind of looked like I was going to face plant, so they gave me my second crutch. I wasn't even wearing my AirCast and I was PUTTING WEIGHT EQUALLY ON BOTH FEET and actually walking like a regular human being! It really was starting to feel like I wasn't going to be able to walk normally again, and today gave me hope. I'm really so excited about this- I can stand on both feet without too much pain now too!

~IT SNOWED TODAY! It was more like sleet and didn't stick to the ground, although my mom sent me pictures from back home and there was definitely an inch sticking to everything there. Here, however, it was just really wet rain that looked white while it was in mid-air. I was terrified with all of the wetness and my crutches on the rubber stairs in the art building and the perfectly polished and shiny lobby floor in the business building, since I've wiped out when it's rained in both of those locations before :( I've been good so far today, probably because I can walk when I crutch now, so I'm relying less on my crutches.

~My roommate from CA just checked the weather for back home and the low today is 54....which is the high for the next week here. It's currently 70-something there, as we were sitting in the snow this morning...why, East Coast, why?! She also just said to me, "Guess how many pairs of pants I'm wearing today!?!" I've taught her the rules of layering well. Good job, my young grass hopper. 

~I've been testing so many new products lately...face products, a toothpaste I'm in love with....What I'm Loving Wednesday is going to be chock-full tomorrow! I'm super excited and should start gearing up now....at least with the picture-taking! 

~I'm uploading my giveaway to my beauty channel as I type! I'll talk about it a bit more in a separate post when it's live! Let's just say that if you're following my blog, you're already one step ahead! (;

What are you tidbitting about this fine Tuesday? 

Thanks for reading!

Tuesday Tidbits

I just got back to my room a few minutes ago- I have been go go go all day! Class, then showing up super early for physical therapy and having an appointment for almost an hour, and then another class!

This week I seem to be starting all of my weekly post series- last night was Monday Night Musings, which you can read here. Today is Tuesday Tidbits, instead of Tuesday Troubles like my blogging idol, RamblingsofASuburbanMom.com, did today, since last night's post was kind of more complain-y, and two in a row of those would just be obnoxious.

So here are my tidbits for so far this Tuesday! Enjoy!

~I posted about how my friend group and I went out to dinner for Miranda's birthday last night, and here's an artsy picture I took when we were at the bus stop, waiting in the freezing cold (I quite liked it): 

~I did super well in physical therapy today. It was my first time going to the on-campus office, and can I just point out how disturbing it was that they have a "Wall of Pain" with pictures of bruises that look like galaxies, and something that looked like a gunshot wound?!!?

Anyways, they had me putting weight on my bum foot, and by the time I left, I could almost walk on it without my Aircast boot, and walk with the help of my crutches and the boot. When I got to my room, I could actually limp a little on my heel when I was wearing the boot. This is super exciting, because all I want is to be able to walk again! Being so co-dependent and helpless is driving me crazy!!!

~On another note....I'm pretty sure that all of the Public Safety officers that drive me to all of my classes think my name is Ella...not Elle. Awk. I thought they all just had weird accents and said my name weird, but now when I call to ask for a ride they're like "oh, this must be Ella!" So I just say yes because it's just too late to correct them now without me looking really dumb. Whoops. Cringe.

~I have so many videos to film, and it will probably only be light for another two hours! I should probably get ready or something, or just edit some older video files I have just hanging out in my iMovie to make up for the upload gap. BTW I'll be uploading my newest Voxbox unboxing video in about an hour, so I'll post it RIGHT HERE when it's up so you can all check it out! It's one of my favorites to date- and then I'll have all of the products to blog about, because my posts won't be spoilers anymore (: I'll also have to update my post with my complete list of Influenster programs- so much to do, so much to do!

~I haven't had any caffeine so far today, and didn't have any yesterday (which eventually resulted in a mild headache, but I couldn't take anything for it because I had already taken Ibuprofen for my foot/ankle! arghh >:( ) I should really get on that...but half the battle is always choosing what to drink, since I have such a hoard of K-cups and coffee grounds and tea bags by now. I'm not complaining at all though, this is like heaven for a caffeine lover like myself <3 I have lots to do in real life and on the Internet today, so I'd better get that coffee pumpin' in me! 

~I always forget about eBates! Miranda was just about to order things online from Sephora, and then I told her to check out eBates first! I can do another post kind of explaining it sometime, but basically you get a percentage of cash back when you shop online, and a lot of times they have coupon codes or codes for free products, in Sephora's case. You can check it out here.

I hope you guys enjoyed - if you want to do this post too and put your link in the comments, I would be more than happy to check it out! It can be like a mini link-up until I figure out the technology to do a real bull blown one!

Thank you all for reading! What kind of post should I do next? I've really got the bloggin' bug this week!
