I am ready for a nap. Ridiculous, at 20 to 4 in the afternoon. I went to WalMart with my Mom earlier, and nearly passed out in the check out line. Note to self: EAT something before you leave! I hadn't eaten all day, and it was 2:00 then. I got all kinds of goodies, including 2 4-packs of Starbucks Peppermint Dark Chocolate Frappucino. WOOHOO!!!
I also stopped at the Dollar store for more glue traps. I know there is at least one more of those foul rodents creeping around in my house, I heard him last night! I found out today mice have babies approximately every 25 days, and can have up to 15 babies at a time!!!!!!!!! I'm looking into getting one of those sonic things that emits sonic waves mice don't like. The hardware store has one for $30, but they are out of stock. It's either that, or get a cat. Have I ever mentioned that I am not a cat person??? LOL
I bought myself a new notebook today at WalMart. I love, love, love looking at notebooks and pens. I'm a total dork. I don't paper journal anymore (it's so much quicker to type), but I want this notebook to be for multiple things. I bought a pocket calendar to go inside it, and I am going to divide it up into sections for different things. First I need to get down the routines I want for each day. I'm also going to have a prayer journal section, and the homemaking notebook section.
That's my plan for the evening, to work on my notebook. The kids are with their Dad, and everyone is going out to his sister's to celebrate NYE. B asked me last night on the phone if I was going to Aunt K's also. I told him no, and he asked why not, when the entire family was going. I wanted to tell him, "Because I'm not part of the family anymore", but I bit my tongue and didn't. I'm trying not to think about it, because it makes me so incredibly sad.
So, I will be here, all by my onesy. Maybe I will watch a movie or something. Tomorrow is The Big Day...Day One of The Big Girl Challenge. I'm kind of excited and hopeful about it. Even if things NEVER work out with J and I, well...I know that I will somehow make it.
Hope all of you have a wonderful, blessed New Year!! |
