If only...

If only I could afford and was able to attend a particular lecture series I learned about in an email I received today. I'm already attempting to study French again, which is sort of more expensive than we can handle (and a test of a step forward). The lecture series would surely be too much for me to handle, and more expense. Plus the six-part series starts at 8 pm each time. That's way too late for me to be out. However, it could be extremely helpful for something I may finally do as a part-time job in the future. The lecturers are prestigious, so it's a great opportunity. 😥

I feel unwell today because of my monthly. I have a mild headache, cramps, and general mild malaise. Our clothes and dishwashers both need replacing. They only partially work. Partially (thanks to my brother) is better than not at all, though. It still equals extra work. And we will need to spend the money on them.

The other day, hubby and I went to buy hubby new prescription sunglasses. He didn't really need them, but it was hard to convince him of that. He bought a type of prescription sunglasses online only recently, but they weren't good enough. He had to have a much fancier type only available through a regular eyeglass shop, which is much more expensive. Then we went to the liquor store and spent a ton of money there (mostly all just for hubby). When we got to the cashier I was already feeling nervous about the expenditure and told the cashier that we were buying the alcohol in lieu of me not getting my hair cut and dyed. He of course laughed, which is somewhat what I was aiming for (dark humor). He responded in a humorous way, but I now forget what he said verbatim.
