I feel like talkin'.

Yesterday

I didn't spend as much time with Gabby as I had wanted, but I think we both had a good day anyway. I slept for about three hours in the afternoon and Gabby played with friends and just relaxed. It was a much needed, very good for us, mental health day.

I dropped Gabby off at her dad's kind of early, and then came home to be lazy again. P-Dub showed up after the work and the gym and had dinner with Carolyn and Scott at Champ's...which turned into a much longer night than anticipated. Easy to do at Champ's since it's not just food. It was really nice, though. We sat outside and had a few beers. Lots of conversation. And, the live band was amazing. They were playing Ray Lamontagne!!! I couldn't believe it! I love him, and NO ONE plays that stuff in San Antonio.

It was good hanging with my sis. I don't do that very much these days. Between work, Gabby, P-Dub, Andrea, and my unfocused, ADHD laziness I tend to get too caught up and not catch up with people I need to.

Today

P-Dub and I were up super early this morning. Seven thirty I think. He went into work for a couple of hours. I got gas, some breakfast, and went to the bank. Now I'm just killing time till he leaves work and then we'll take my car in for some much needed TLC, go to the gym, and then I think we're doing a little shopping today. I need some perfume, and he needs some T-shirts. There are some other things I'm supposed to do today, but I can't think of all of them right now. I need to be writing this crap down!!! Oh, I need to drop off some prescriptions I think, and go back to the bank because I forgot a birthday check from my uncle on the table. Of course. Forgetful, forgetful me.

We only had a few beers last night, but it just takes me so long to recover from any amount of alcohol these days. I feel yucky!!! I should just stick to one glass of wine. Knocks me out and I don't feel bad. I really shouldn't be drinking hardly at all with all the meds I'm on either.

Andrea's House

Last night Andrea texted me and said she got the house she put an offer on the day before! I'm really excited for her. I know she's really looking forward to this, and she definitely needs something good in her life. Her dad just had surgery this past week for esophigeal cancer (I know I horribly misspelled that!) He came through the surgery great and now she'll be a home owner. As much as she pretends not to be, she's extremely domestic, and I know it's been hard on her to live with her partents and not get to cook, garden, etc.

Funny, though, she asked if I would ever even go to her house. I don't know. I have such an issue with that. P-Dub said that when he gets his own place I'll have to go stay there sometimes...and I said I didn't think so. I just love being in my own place. Hate going to others.

Gabby is in junior high!!!

August is almost here and it will be very, very busy. Gabby starts junior high! Can you believe it???!!! I can't. We have an orientation at her new (very BIG) school on the 14th, and there will be lots and lots of shopping, etc. to do. I'm a little worried because her school is in a very upscale district. All the reviews I've read online from parents and students say the same things. "The school is awesome academically. Very, very tough socially." Apparently the cliques are really bad with all the really rich, beautiful kids and their designer clothes. I hope my "hot topic" girl will be able to hold her own. She's such a good hearted kid. I just don't want her to be teased or anything. But, she'll be ok. She's pretty tough sometimes and she's never had problems making friends before. In fact, she's always been very popular. But, junior high is tough! Things change.

Jess' Baby

And, then comes the beginning of September when I get to hold Jessica and Eric's new little bundle of joy. I can't wait!!!! I don't think I'll be able to put it down. Yes "it"! Since they refuse to find out the sex! I really want her to have a girl, but I found this onesie I really want to get them and it would be better if it was a boy. Just for that reason. Maybe it can be a boy for one day to wear it. I'll be there for about 4 days. P-Dub better watch out when I come home! My 32 year old body can't get that biological clock to stop ticking!! Even though my mind is like, "Remeber being up every two hours? NO SLEEP!? Diapers? One year walking? Potty training???!!!" Awww....but all that stuff is really great too. I know P-Dub really wants to be a dad...once he's married, etc....the right way. Will that be with me? Who knows? It would be really great, though.

All Iced In

In case anyone has been watching the weather for the whole country...you will know that here in sunny San Antonio, we have been having some very out of the ordinary weather. We got iced in for the last two days. Not snowed in...It's all ice. Snow to the north, but all we got was freezing rain. I was cracking ice off my car with a wooden flip-flop keychain, seeing as how I don't own an ice chipper or whatever you call them, because this isn't usually a problem. Gabby got to have two ice days from school. I have spent the last almost 72 hours in my house, and I'm literally going crazy!!! I just had to get over to my mom's today so I could do something different for a change. The roads are much safter, but watch out for the ice flying off of cars! I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that a chunk of ice the size of a passenger side car window came hurling at me! It was kind of scary. Or the ice falling from the power lines...that's kind of scary, too. But, th...

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Last one for tonight, I PROMISE!!!

It's official...I've finally decided what it is...I think the background for my posts is too dark. I don't like the way pictures show up on it...I love the whole ocean/beach theme thing because it really fits me, but I think I need something sunny, brighter...I love the picture with the mermaid because it's all bright and stuff, and so is the sidebar, but the dark, navy-ish blue just isn't doing it for me. I don't like the way my posts "look"...I think it reminds me too much of my teenage angst years, when at 14 or 15 I turned everything in my room into navy blue, and put up the darkest navy blue curtains...close enough to being black, it looked like I lived in a tomb, and I couldn't stand it after awhile...It actually contributed to my depression. That's why now, I don't even have curtains...I would much rather have the morning sun come blaring through my windows...That's what I need here...I've figured it out...
