Today's Forecast: Bad News with a Slight Chance of Positive Outcomes

Because I didn't have tutorials/labs for this first week of the semester, I went to my grandparent's house. During my time there my grandma taught me how to make her "hamburger soup" and her "7 layer dip" which are 2 of my favourite things that she makes. 

I got home tonight and watched our hockey team win the first game of the semi-finals 3-2. Now we only have to win 3 more games and we will be playing for the Stanley Cup! Before I got to watch the game I was given the news that while I was away, my dog got even worse (she went and had an appointment with the surgeon, even though there is no way we could afford surgery). The surgeon said that surgery is the last resort and they usually wait until there is a serious problem with mobility before that happens, so we're not quite there yet. But she is on more drugs and has been put on bed rest for the next month. I'm trying to remain positive about her situation but it's getting hard to keep my hopes up. 

In some actual good news, I talked to the manager of a store I shop at fairly regularly over the weekend and I have a job interview on Tuesday! I'm excited and hoping that it goes well. The call was really surprising because when I applied around a month ago she told me that she didn't have anything for me, so I wasn't expecting to hear from her. She told me that she wouldn't be able to give me loads of hours, but at this point I think I would love working there and something is better than nothing anyways.
