Crazy work weekend came to a close!! Thank goodness. I basically worked Weds-Sun.....my bank account is looking a little closer to what it looked like three months ago and that makes me a happy camper.
No, I'm not poor or destitute. I'm just used to having a certain amount of money to play with, and not having that was an adjustment. But the beauty of that is, I'm learning how to live on very little and to budget better. Planting a garden with fresh herbs and veggies will cut my grocery costs for sure. EXCEPT FOR THAT THE GODDAMN DEER ATE ALL OF MY LACINATO KALE STARTS AND I DISCOVERED THAT THIS AFTERNOON! Those dickheads. I knew that was going to happen.
So you know what I did? I planted fresh, tall, boisterous tomato starts in their place. Nightshades are poisonous to deer, so they won't touch them at all. TAKE THAT, DICKHEAD DEERS.
Moving on. The highlights of this week will undoubtedly be the Blazers win tonight, and the Sauvie Island auction this weekend at Kunkel's farm. It's catered, I get to represent my family (since no one else is going--my family is the most antisocial out of all the community members), and I got my daddy to donate a weekend at Cherry Grove as an auction item...which was like pulling teeth, but after a bit of arguing he relented. My daddy is a tough cookie, but I know how to work him and when to tell him to stop talking, and vice versa.
I'm just trying to appreciate everything that is coming my way right now. No more letting other people's bad attitudes and insecurities bother me. This summer is going to be so incredibly awesome. Did I mention I'm going to be an AUNTIE again in a week or so?!?!?!
