Randomness
Visited Jen at school this past weekend with my sister-in-law. We all had a good time. Ate at a fantastic, authentic Mexican food place near her school which looked like a total dump but was not only completely packed with a steady crowd coming and going the whole time we were there, but also had the BEST food I've had outside of Mexico!!! Had dinner there 2 days in a row it was so good. It was great to see my girl and have fun...when Joe and I went out there a couple of weekends ago for parents weekend it did not end on a good note as Jen and I argued a bit. The last 2 weeks have been tense. This weekend made up for it!! :)
I haven't mentioned it here I don't think, but I am quite frustrated with my job (for a number of reasons) and have been for awhile. Circumstances as they are will not be changing and there is no movement available to me within the current structure. I have been looking for a new job, but sadly there is nothing out there. Don't get me wrong, with so many people out of work I am very thankful that I have a job...I just wish I liked it.
Had the day off of work today...I had a list of things I wanted to accomplish - laundry, workout, sewing, cleaning, etc.
Instead...I stayed curled up in my bed reading a book until 3pm...made a quick dinner for myself and Joe and am back to sloughing off. I have friends coming over tonight to watch DWTS...they will have to ignore the dust and un-vacuumed floors because it just isn't happening.
I must say, selfishly taking a day to just chill was wonderful, relaxing and rejuvenating! It's been quite a while since I've taken a day for ME! I was a little sad that it was one of the few over 60 degree days we've had in the past month or so, but I got over that part quickly.
I am making a halloween costume for the daughter of one of my co-workers. I will have to post it when I'm finished. She's 2 yrs old and is going to be a horse. Should be super cute. Of course, if I spend my days off sewing instead of reading she might be half of a horse. :) Nope, I'll get back to it...soon.
