Friday is my birthday and it is also the last school day before break.
Husband and I are going out tomorrow night as my favorite restaurant will probably be quieter on Thursday and we both like quiet restaurants. It’s a Brazilian barbeque run by a bullfighter. I can’t figure out why they have stayed in business as I have never seen it even half full, but I’m hoping it is on Friday nights. They have Happy Hour then, but it didn’t look open last Friday when I got my dog pictures.
Brazilian barbeque is very diabetic friendly and the part I really like about it is that that wait on you hand and foot. They do have a salad/side dish buffet, and I usually get a huge plate of veggies and cheese. Then I like to alternate veggies with meat. The only carbs I really eat there are their bread, which comes in really small cheese rolls, the banana, cooked and coated with cinnamon and the pineapple. I love the pineapple. They roast a whole pineapple and slice the cooked, caramelized slices at the table.
We’re on a new schedule for the second year, and it is VERY odd. We used to finish first semester before the break, and now we go on break for two weeks, have 4 days back and then give exams. To make matters even worse, my lab has to be torn down on Thursday and be installed on Friday.
Then we have exams. Those days are half days for the kids, which is going to give me lots of time to play with the new computers and organize the lab.
And I’m spending the break trying to recharge, get squared away on exercise and relax. Hopefully the weather will be warmer as I cannot sleep well when it is this cold.
