So since I hurt my back, I have found that heels are Very Bad for back pain. This week I have ordered and returned no less than four pairs of shoes from Zappos, trying to find a pair of flats that 1) fit; 2) are comfortable; and 3) are cute and professional-looking. I can apparently achieve two out of three but no more. I am annoyed. I am still wearing the shoes that don't make me walk all hunched over even though they're not really professional, because I am old enough that avoiding pain is a higher priority than being cute. I am frustrated, though.
Also, today, we were getting ready to go and Sarah said "Mama, I need my jacket," because we forgot it yesterday and she couldn't play outside once the fog came in. I said "You do. Thanks for remembering! How did you get so good at remembering?" Sarah looked at me sidelong and said "I forget." When I raised my eyebrows at her, she collapsed from giggles. That's my girl, being a smart ass.
Oh, and also? I am living on a diet that is about 70% Captain Crunch. I got a craving for it a couple of weeks ago and now I have a bowl every morning and I've been eating it for dinner at least two or three times per week. Today I had CC for breakfast, a turkey sandwich for lunch, and CC for dinner. I just don't care about food much any more. This is probably not healthy.
