upstairs Room

Of sorts.  Today I was supposed to take my husband to the train station, and then meet up with him later in the evening.  We’re going to the Depeche Mode concert.  It was a good plan.. I would drop off the kids and drive downtown.  But, due to the events of yesterday, I was worried about driving and decided to give him the car and he has to drive all the way back here to get me and the kids.

Yesterday I was going with my cousin to the bank.. we had some errands to do and I was driving.  Hardly three blocks away from my house, I almost drove through a red light.  Then we got to the plaza where the bank is and I parked in front of Walmart by accident.  No big deal, I go there enough to pick up stuff.. it was probably instinct I thought.  So I backed out and turned around, only to do it AGAIN hardly 1 minute later.  Weird part is that I didn’t notice until I already had the kids out and I realized I hadn’t parked in front of the bank. We decided to just walk it… but in the back of my mind I’m thinking.. this is really weird. I told my cousin to drive for the remainder of our outing.

I would of probably of just done the driving today, but last night I was awake from 2:30am to 6:30am, and I just don’t trust myself when I’m that tired.  Yesterday too, people are talking to me, and I don’t know what they are saying.  It’s freaking me out.  I must be exhausted or something.  I woke up at 10:45 this morning because my uncle called looking for my cousin, but she stayed over at my Mom’s house last night.  I wonder how long I would of slept had he not called.

I have so so so many things I have to do.  I still haven’t gone to see my friend’s baby.  One of my cousin’s had a baby this week too.  We have new neighbours that moved in last weekend and I haven’t gone over to meet them since they moved in.  I met them briefly on Thursday last week… but I should go there and bring something over.  It was my niece’s birthday and I want to go over and see her too. I have to return the library books.. although I did renew them so that if I was late it wouldn’t be a big deal. I still have to get my bike.

But really, it can all wait.  I am chilling with the girls at home today.  I made french toast for us for breakfast, and we’ve been vegging on the couch all morning.  I watched yesterday’s episode of So You Think You Can Dance.. I was very disappointed that Jeanette was sent home.. she was my favourite.  Best part of that episode was the Hummingbird and Flower dance from a few seasons ago.  The breast cancer routine from the day before was outstanding.. it made me cry, I went back and watched that too.  We watched Cake Boss too.. I just started watching that show.. I LOVE IT.. and so does Yumna.  She is fascinated by cake decorating.

As for weight, I am 176.8 lbs today.  I have looked over the last two weeks and really I have to say that I am okay with this.. It has not been an easy 2 weeks food wise and I have managed to lose rather than gain.. so it is what it is.  I also checked my measurements the other day and was shocked that I managed to lose 3.5 inches in a month and a half where I have done very little to deserve it.

We’re still in our jamas here.. so I need to get off my butt and get things started if we are going to make it to the concert tonight.  I thought I would be a lot more excited, but I’m not.  I’m sure I’ll get into the mood once I get there.
