@Blue_Bird - Your painting is great! In the future I may try water color but it will be in the LONG future as I remember my painting not being that great in art class!

@MuddyBoots - Congrats on getting your own place! When do you move in?

Sorry I haven't time to respond to everyone; I've read all the posts just ugh, it's like the 3rd or 4th day of my stupid period and I'm having bad cramps. Can't take NSAIDs b/c of past ulcer surgery which leaves me only with Tylenol...sigh.

I wanted to walk this morning, did 0.5 miles in the drizzle then it started raining harder, so I came inside and did pilates. Then wouldn't you know, the rain stopped a bit. Frustrating to say the least. So I made a quick trip to Walmart for H's bolillos for his sandwiches; the Walmart makes much better ones than our local grocery store (H-E-B, which wouldn't you believe it, that store tends to be much superior than Super Walmart except in the baking department.) However, the stupid Walmart delivered me wheat bolillos and H of course only likes white, so that is why I had to make the trip there. I really HATE going to Walmart! I used my SAD lamp 15 minutes reading but now am trying to get H up (he is overworked and very hard to wake). He is taking my daughter to a school meetup in Houston late this morning and needs to get ready. I feel bad because if I were I normal mom, I'd have no problem driving into Houston on the freeways and stupid downtown one way streets of the museum district (they are going to the art museum). I only drive locally because I get such panic attacks driving where there are lots of cars and where the speed limit is high, and you suddenly are forced to switch lanes because a lane ends or turns into a right or left turn only lane and you need to go straight or you need to get over to turn right or left and people don't want to let you over.

Mostly though, I'm still in a good mood. Planning to use the SAD lamp another 45 min. after H wakes up; started a new book and it's pretty good Probably will have to microwave my coffee by now. Then, drawing which I always look forward to.
