Yesterday was a LONG day! I'm still exhausted. Foodl wasn't great, but wasn't as bad as it could have been. Breakfast was oatmeal square (4). Lunch Chick Fil A grilled, fries & cf diet coke. Dinner was the other Taco Bell nachos supreme. Haven't calculated points, but I know it wasn't good.
I managed to get packages ready and mailed before picking up lunch and DS19. Ran him to Dr. which actually went quickly. His BP was high and they want him to check it 3x/week and come back in 2 mo. Just walking in the building he began visibly shaking, plus he had not slept in over 24 hours and had caffeine. Hopefully it will improve. Ran to bread store , then DMV. Dropped DS19 where his car is so they can work on it more, managed 1 grocery before having to go potty pups. Took care of froz stuff and left immediately for 2nd grocery. Finished just in time to pick DD up from Choir practice and get home at 5:30 p.m. I had left at 10:30 a.m. UGH!!
Leftovers for dinner, then I started on Ebay. DH came home in a mood, which was not what I expected since he is leaving on a 4 day vacation tonight to visit his friends in KS. I gave him his packet of all his travel infoand he didn't want to read it, wanted me to recite it all for him. When I told him it was all in the packet, he went off, so didn't talk to me the rest of the night or this morning. Not sure what his problem is, but it happens every time he goes to KS, alone, for a visit. It is only 55 out today and he also wasn't thrilled when I asked him to haul all my winter clothes down from up high so I could go thru them and change out my dressers. Oh well..... I can't run around in shorts & tank tops when it's in the upper 30's in the mornings!
DS16 forgot his tank bag and work clothes at the gym last night so he left early for work. As soon as he left I tackled the mountain of clothes on my bed. I truly mean MOUNTAIN! I shop mostly at thrift stores and mostly on $1 day, so I buy a lot that I like and is good brands in hopes it will fit. If not, it goes to Ebay eventually.
I was pleasantly surprised that some things that fit or were tight last winter are now too big and some that I couldn't come close to wearing fit. My fav was a Weekenders outfit size XS!!! Yes, this brand runs big! It is a 'home party' line that a gym mom is selling, only I won't buy at the real prices. I keep picking up for $1 - $5 an outfit (would be $50-100) It is super comfy and is knit so it travels well and washes great. Plus, since it runs big it makes you feel good!
I still need to go thru my cedar chest for the folding stuff, but the closet is tried on. Now I have several to list on Ebay. I'm taking a leap of faith in myself. My very favorite Disney pants, top, jacket is too big in the rear/crotch, so I put it in the Ebay pile. I don't want to grow back into it, but it was hard to part with. I only wore it on trips when I flew for gym as it was comfy. Oh well...... time to find another! I will NOT grow!! I will NOT grow!!! I will NOT grow!!
Tonight I have to take DD to fencing right after school. Then do Ebay. I'm hoping for time to take a nice long bath. If DH had gotten the hot tub running I'd be in it, but I forgot to ask him over the weekend and I don't know how.
DD wants to go to Balloon fiesta in the morning and DS16 might crew for a balloon. That means 4 a.m.!!! I'm not sure I"m up for that. Tomorrow is special shapes mass ascension. It was rained out today, so I"m sure it will be packed if they can fly. Plus no school tomorrow.
Saturday I have to take DD to Los Alamos for a fencing tournament - about 2 hours away. She doesn't like me to watch, so I'll spend the time walking about their small town. They actually have trees & everything!! Sunday I'm hoping to SEW!! I bought all the stuff for covers for the dog cages and need to not procrastinate.
So, all that, plus the normal stuff and my weekend will be full to the max. DH gets home Monday night and I"m sure he will be exhausted and crabby. I'll likely be gone w/ DD at fencing when he gets here and he'll probably be asleep by the time we get home, so I won't have to listen to him until Tuesday. SIGH!!!!!!!
Did my WATP 4 mi this morning - 55 min. It is about the only thing keeping me sane.
Time to potty the pups and try to get some Ebay started.
Hopefully more later! Hope all y'all are having a good week!!
