It's a Wednesday

It's a cold rainy day outside, we've had some beautiful weather and I know the rain is welcomed, but brrrr, I've all ways liked the rain. I've grabbed some lunch that wasn't very yummy and tossed half of it. That pretty much is the way of the day. This morning I woke and told the Dude it was time to get up, he had an appointment this morning. I just want to curl up with him. I've been busy doing things, baking and other projects. I think if I could just lay there and kiss him for about 2 hours I'd be on cloud 9, but alas there are kittens to be fed, showers to take and work to be gotten to. I was running late and I actually buttoned my underwear into my jeans button?? how do you even do that? unbutton and unwedgie myself and ran out the door, again in my glasses because I'm weirdo that can spend 1-5 dollars on strange things and won't spend money on important things like reordering my contacts. I'm working on that today, but I sort of like my glasses from time to time, I look at the face in the mirror and see 24 year old me from many moons ago. Granted she had contacts... but same ole Mandy waited to order contacts back then also, but because she was figure out how to make a meal out of mustard broke, not just being cheap. ha ha 

Got to work with my banana muffin, that I didn't drop at all and figured that was a win, and of course my Mac is being wonky it has gone on Spring Break ya'll Beach balls for everyone!! (Mac's have little beach balls instead of hour glasses flipping which I think PC's have) At some point I go to the bathroom and I have my underwear on inside out... my underwear hates me today. I swear I have been dressing myself for years...

I've been feeling a little blue. I think I've overwhelmed myself. I get this way from time to time. Like I have all of these ideas and I want to get them all done and I have projects and thoughts and then I also have things that I need to do, laundry, scrub the tub, dinner, workout, beauty regiments, world peace, write the great American novel, feed the hungry, cloth the naked... etc. you catch my drift. I must add that my guy is amazing he just does things, laundry boom, dishes done, he helps me with my strange projects - he's amazing. But I like to feel like I can do it all. Simple thing is I can not, even when it is just me in the cats in the Great Kick a Shoe Nation, life is messy and we all go thought times like this I believe. So I just have to take a step back and go well look at what I did do today. I also have to check my attitude, I can't control a lot of things, but this one I can. I can chose to be stubborn and grumpy or laugh and find the bright. I choose to laugh. 

I've gotten up, I've kissed my guy, I've fed our cats, I've kicked some layouts' booties, I've given out a recipe, I've counted how many stamps we'll need for wedding invites, I've ran in the rain, I've prayed for loved ones, I've laughed at myself, I've filled out not one but 2 basketball brackets, I've seen a photo of my new baby cousin, born today and he is beautiful, I've read some of Gone Girl. I totally plan on stealing chocolate from a jar and having a blast with some good friends tonight and eating this yummy  vanilla lemon cake I made and jungle juice I assembled, then coming home and snuggling up close to this handsome man that will wrap his arms around me and tell me stories about his day. If you look at it, it's a pretty good day. :)

Tomorrow I plan on not doing anything, but curling up on the couch next to him and watching some tv. No wedding things unless we need to, no baking, no other projects just relaxing and letting this mind chill. Mmmmm maybe I'll grab some tea and start now mmmmmmm.


So grab some tea and chill with me,
