So, I've really been working at changing my schedule the last couple of weeks. Pt was first thing in the morning when I was in the military...and not that I'm working out for an hour and running a few miles when I first get up. I don't even like running. But it (exercise) is the first thing I do at least 5 days a week. Of course, I'd rather be doing it it, but I haven't found anyone that can keep up with me. (Some of them talk a good game, but when it comes down to it, they never deliver.)

My youngest's best friend invited her skiing tomorrow. Then she asks if I can drop them off and pick them up. Well, alone time on a Friday evening is still alone time. And almost unheard of for me. (What I can't wait for is when they do this lock-in thing at their school.)

My best friend is waiting to go to court. She doesn't leave her house unless she has to, like for appointments. I think her parents even do her shopping for her. And as irrational as it may sound to others, I can really relate to how she's feeling. PTSD does funny things to people.

So, I'm looking at toys...fairly certain of what I'm getting but I'm still waiting to order...partly cause I want to make sure I don't get it when my oldest is here. It's bad enough that I'm certain the ups guy has an idea of what may be in the box. (Probably adds to why he thinks I'm such an adventure.) There's just some things I'd rather not have my daughter know.

Charlotte Martin has such an amazing voice. This is another of my favorites.

I bought a portable pilates exercise thingy...I've been using it almost every day for almost 2 weeks...not sure if it's making a difference. I know it doesn't feel like it is. Personally, I prefer weight-lifting, but I don't have room for that type of equipment right now...and I refuse to make a 30+ mile round trip on top of paying for a membership. The only thing they have in my little town is a curves, and that's just not my thing.

Damn! I was almost done, too! So frustrating!

Got some random texts I've chosen to ignore. I'm not interested in hearing any bs excuses as to how someone was just too busy. Even the busiest people in the world (you know, like world leaders and CEOs) have time for people who are important to them. Besides, what "I've been really busy" actually means (they're just too much of a wuss to be honest) is "I'm not interested/I'm only half-hearted/I've been trying to get back with my ex/or there's someone else in the picture." And I really hate for my intelligence to be insulted. I may live in my own world and I may even be a bit absent-minded. But I am no where near being stupid. (Even though it took me over a year to figure out that if someone calls me when my phone is open, I can shut it. Instead of hitting the talk button and putting them on speakerphone.)

Well, I'm excited for this weekend. My oldest's best friend is celebrating her birthday (she's going to be 21) and I'm invited. My youngest has her first volleyball tournament Saturday morning, so that is going to be a busy day for me.

"No hidden catch, no strings attached, just free love..."

One of my favorite songs.

Just watched Kris Holden-Ried dance to this shirtless on "Lost Girl."

Now that my youngest is (finally) done watching "The Secret World of Arrietty" I can put in something I want to see. (The Bourne Legacy.) Though what I really really want to see is "Cloud Atlas." In the privacy of my own home where no one can see what a big romantic cry-baby I really am.
