Resolution-esque
So as part of a wanted life change I have decided that I need to start journaling / writing more. If nothing more than to just get what I have bouncing around in my head, written down and out of there. (Too much stuff in there as it is!)
Took Mom out for her birthday dinner on Saturday, with her birthday being on Tuesday. She didn't want to celebrate the day of because she had to work. So I suggested Saturday and sushi after the hemmed and hawed about where to eat, "I don't care son. Wherever."
So being that I know she likes sushi and it was all you can eat, we went there. One of my aunts joined us and we spent about 2 or 3 hours eating and talking. It was a very good time, and needless to say we left very full. We talked about the deteriorated relationship with my sister and my Mom keeps telling us we need to get over it. I explained it simply from my side, it would take an apology and for her to not date a douchebag AND for her to admit that she was wrong to choose her douchebag boyfriend over her brother. I'm not having someone in my life that I don't like. I don't have time for the games and the politics so I choose not to participate. Effectively rendering our relationship null and void because I don't share my life with her directly anymore. I'm sure my mom and other sisters share with her, but I do not directly.
So after much eating and laughter I took Mom home. Earlier in the day I did get a haircut though, and I look cute!
I deactivated my Facebook for a few days as well, recently turning it back on. I've linked this and that together, with my Twitter so I can hit all three markets with the same thing. It's all about single sourcing, "work smarter, not harder.". ;)
Vacation coming up this weekend, going to Gay Days at Disneyland with two of my best friends. Through the generosity of others I am getting in for free both Saturday and Sunday. I'm taking Thursday, Friday, and Monday off for my little break...so 6 days. I'm extremely excited to just relax and unwind while also having some kid-like fun at the place where everyone can feel like a kid again.
Plans are in place to get a non-sexual facial and eyebrow wax on Thursday and then drive out on Friday with Tim. Hotel booked for all three days, a bit expensive...but well worth it. I am hoping to see as many of my California friends as possible while out there, of course not neglecting anyone else in the process.
Next weekend is kind of booked too, possible bowling date with a new guy and a friend from California is coming out here as well. Then I'm sure there are going to be Halloween parties to attend. I'm thinking of busting out one of the old costumes either Fred Flintstone or the Nun. I'll probably go with Fred...it's sexier.
I shifted the ole bedroom around too. More room on the floor now for whatever. I need to start thinking about a color palette for my bathroom and room. I want to re-paint it, but winter isn't a good time to be painting so I think this is perfect timing. I'll decide on a color scheme and then come summertime get that baby done! Probably going to do a light blue in the bathroom and then green in my bedroom. I find both colors soothing; perfect for the rooms I spend most of my time in when at home.
Upcoming vacation in November too, wine tasting in Temecula. WAY too excited for that trip.
Welp, I think that's enough for now. I'm sure I'll have more to talk about soon.
