You're invited to a party. It's the SDW Pity Party. Where: Just follow the black cloud over me: When: apparently today, between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm. Why: Because..........sometimes I can't always be the perky one! - oh wait you missed it. I'll be sure to invite you all again to the next one. They don't happen very often, but when they do, they are a real downer. Hormonal you might say - maybe -. I just like to think we all need one of those days (ok Karen, weekends) to say "poor me." I call it a pity party because basically I'm feeling like nobody (whom I can't control anyways) cares about poor ol'e me! Really!!! The daughter was on FB and I tried talking to her - before I knew it she was signed off. The rational part of my brain knows she is working and trying to entertain a group of First Year Students out camping! Then there's the son. Off on some soccer training and tournament in Langley BC. I've heard through the grape vine they won their last two games. Thought maybe he'd be sharing the news with his Mom. Oh wait, I'm his mom - ---Petty - yes, but petty is allowed at a pitty party - then it becomes a petty pitty party. The party ended when I arrived at my sister-in-laws house and the entire extended family (minus daughter, son, and brother-in-law) enjoyed a dinner and some homemade pie (made in someone else's home) And to think I was going to beg off sick and stay home to party!!!
Mind: Having a petty pitty party isn't a good thing for the mind. So I did the next best thing. I went to the cemetery. I decided to visit my father's ...... "ashes!" Cause really what else is there. I haven't been there in a long long time, and for some reason this seemed like the day to make the trek. I actually tried a couple of weeks ago, but without a map. Never try and find a gravesite without a map (unless you're my father-in-law who just has to find one tree and can locate 40 graves from that) I took my gardening tools with me, and cleaned up the surrounding area; then enjoyed my lunch in the peace and quiet! (not counting the little black squirrel that was making noise - I think he eyed my banana)
Body: I didn't want to get out of bed this morning - for the third time. But I did - I even did my ab work out. I really need to get on that more faithfully. Could use some encouragement on that end! Despite visiting the cemetery, only 6000 steps registered today on the pedometer. Maybe I should have visited other sites!!!!!! NOT. Looking forward to a relaxing day tomorrow - all this partying is really tiring!
Night!
