I'm tired now, but I've been running around all day. I had to get my daughter to school early today for a tryout for a math competition team. And I had to get groceries. Ugh, I hate grocery shopping. I am trying to shop more at Aldi since a lot of things are cheaper there, especially produce, canned goods, pasta, rice, but since it's smaller and the way they arrange the displays are usually not super prominent, it takes me awhile to find stuff (plus I have to find recipes 2 picky eaters will be willing to try to eat). Then, I have to get whatever they did not have at Aldi at Super Wal-mart, which I totally hate shopping at, but pretty much it's the next cheapest store, except one other near me but they tend to be heavy on items of interest for Latino cooking and products from Mexico, so there will also be something they do not have either. While I was shopping, I got a text I had 2 prescriptions ready, so I had to get those.

Put away groceries, prepped veggies, which I hate, but later it does make life easier. Cats wanted to be fed, had laundry to fold, one of my crazy cats kept jumping on top of my folded towel pile, knocking it down, then she laid down in my T-shirt drawer and wouldn't budge for the longest time. Not sure what is going on with her lately; it is like she has hit a second kittenhood or something.

Finally had lunch and watched a show recorded on the DVR. Nice to take a breather.

Just worn out now, some of my back muscles are spasming, so I will probably have to take some tizanidine (tends to make me sleepy though like most of my meds, I can force myself to stay awake when I take it). It's gray outside, wind blowing hard, ugh, it does not look like fun weather to stand outside the school to pick up my daughter. It is really going to be miserable as the area where the parents wait is prone to wind drafts, even when it is not that windy nearby. Temperatures are falling along with it being extremely windy. They have actually issued a wind warning affecting the inland areas, not just the ocean and beach areas. Tomorrow it will feel like winter here as they are predicting lows in the upper 30s. I am not a cold weather person and hope it warms up again soon.

I guess now I've got my groceries, I can hibernate...well, except for the T appointment tomorrow. I think I need to come up with a plan to survive the holidays combined with my daughter's birthday (Dec. 14). I am nervous about H too. He is coming up on the 1 year anniversary of his mom's passing. I was so lucky to have such a wonderful mother-in-law through 14 years of marriage and through my super long engagement period. I couldn't just plan a wedding, it didn't seem fun to me, so H & I finally eloped, and I do not regret that decision a bit. Even I tear up about certain things that remind me of MIL, and I worry H will find it difficult. He tends to keep all his emotions bottled up inside, and I don't think that is good for him, but a lot of men are that way, I think.

Hypergraphia again...hard to control it, sorry about that.
