My son's first friend sleepover last night went well, I like seeing him around his friends because it's so funny how different he acts! And his friend brought up the girl the my son "likes" which was brand new information!
I'm going to buy more flowers this afternoon to plant in the front. I love gardening and am so glad I have a yard again!!!
I just finished a 21 mile bike ride where I got to see the sunrise and a gorgeous horse named divya. Sitting at the yoga studio now waiting for the next class to start. pantsoffdanceoff and I are meeting for breakfast/brunch after this where I will eat everything lol and we plan to discuss some goals we have and really hold each other accountable. Golfer is also in a huge tournament (it's been going since Thursday) and he ended last night in first by 5 strokes. It's a huge payout if he wins so good vibes please!
Day 2 of volunteering. Clea DuVall was on an acting workshop panel I got to work at yesterday. She was really nice. I loved the movie 'But I'm a Cheerleader' and she talked about that a bit. I'm doubting today will be as exciting but I'm still looking forward to it.
Nothing too big planned today. P and I are going to prob go to church and then thin out the garden and do some odds and ends. Supposed to be gorgeous here today and low eighties.
We had a great time at the beer fest last night. But ube.r kind of annoyed me with the surge pricing. We'd only used them once before (we never really need to take cabs, but both of us drank last night). The way there was $45 and the way home was $90!!! Ridiculous. Today I'm doing some laundry and I'm contemplating going to trader joes--if I can muster up the energy to deal with the madhouse. I want to book a vacation for July and I need to check prices on different sites.
Eureka1984 and FormerlyRR I'm sitting with you guys. It's been the worst. I had a date last night and was apparently visibly anxious but the guy I'm seeing was so great about it and we ended up having a ton of fun. I had to cancel plans for today yesterday to meet my besties new boyfriend. I just can't be "on" right now. Of course bestie is pulling his usual passive aggressive bullshit. Honestly if you can't sympathize with what I'm going through I don't really need you around
It's a sunny day today and I think that's the only thing really helping me avoid falling into a huge funk. Do you ever have those days where you KNOW you need to get stuff done, but you just can't do it? Like my house...it's awful, but right now the thought of doing the work to clean and organize it well is paralyzingl.
I've alread done the Target and grocery runs for the week, so that's good. Picked up a new set of dishes today...haven't had new dishes in years.
Wish we had one more day this weekend. Tomorrow is supposed to be a little warmer and full of sun...I'd prefer to spend the day on my back deck instead of at work.
idahome I totally understand what you mean by paralyzingly. It's the worst and people don't understand! One thing that's helped me is to set a timer just for ten minutes and clean up whatever then back to the couch. I've found that helps. Big hugs!

I'm getting a mani/pedi right now. Tried out a new (to me) place. A bit pricier and more luxurious than where I usually go. So far seems worth the extra few dollars and it's only a few minutes further away. I ran a few errands and did some stuff around the house and my poor feet are feeling it.

Thanks @pdx18: people don't understand, you're right about that. The timer trick worked well. I'm pretty sure I accomplished more in that short time than I would've had I just said I was going to clean the master bedroom. Lol. Here's hoping we all have a better evening and day tomorrow.

Well I came out of my nice relaxing mani/pedi and my car is dead! I assume it's the battery since the car is 5 years old and I've never changed it. Waiting for AAA to come now, they will bring me a new battery.

Ugh. My friend told her H she wants a divorce. He feels blind sided. He wants to work it out. She is just done. Friend's H and MH are friends. They have been hanging out this weekend while friend is out of town (not with me). Anyway, MH invited FH to dinner tonight with us and a few other people. FH is all, "I want to go, but friend is coming home tonight and I will probably need to be with her. Maybe Jojo should invite friend to come too." So MH CALLS ME TO CALL FRIEND AND INVITE HER. NO! I AM NOT GETTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS! FH and MH should continue to be friends. FH is NOT a bad guy. Even friend was encouraging the two to hang out. But we are NOT all four going to go to dinner like it's a fucking double date. NO! WHY ARE YOU BEING STUPID, MH!?!

P had a big day yesterday and is still asleep. Yay!!!
We have a few couples like that in our group that we hang out with. The kind of couple where you wonder what she's doing with him? Yeah, we've decided that we'll tolerate him to hang out with her.
I think today I'm just going to hang out and watch baseball. After the game, I might work on a few projects around the house. I have some art-on-canvas pics I need to frame. It's so expensive to buy frames, I'm going to try to frame them myself using the technique I saw in a blog. I'm also starting a bee garden. I don't want to keep bees, I just want to give them a source of pollen. We have a seasonal creek that's dry right now, and I wanted to put it there so there is a source of water (there is another creek down there) but it's out of the way of where we might be doing stuff outside. DH wants to put it where we'll be able to see the flowers, so I guess I'm going to rework a bed at the front of the property and make that the bee garden instead.
