Morning

I had some weird ass dreams/nightmares last night. One was that I was on a walk and decided to cut thru this front yard so I went thru the gate and was approached by a german shepard. I pet him and he was all friendly until his jaw popped out of joint. It was so *shudder* weird to see. I went to the owner who was out with his other dogs (about 10 german shepards and pit bulls) and it was William Shatner. All that started to run thru my head was the quotes from Free Enterprise "My friends call me Bill", then he doing the "you can call me Mr Shatner now" I almost blurted tbose quotes out. The dog whose lower jaw kept coming out of joint was just wandering around. I dont remember his reply.

I am losing the rest of the dream as well as the others I had. I just woke up with butterflies and an uneasy feeling.

The plumbers come today. Since we cant use the sinks or tub I went to the Y to get my shower today. I felt kinda strange just going in to shower though. I am working out later today, so didnt want to do anything this morning. The water pressure was SO NICE! and unlimited hot water! Now I feel awake.

Daily Update

Got the bills paid and into the mail. I called the court house to make sure if they didnt get it on monday it was ok. They give a 10 day grace period for mail in prepay tickets. That is nice.

I finally got a good reservation at Flag Fork Herb Farm for Caritas and I to eat lunch. We are going at 12:45. I ma hungry alittle now though. *grumps*

I need to figure out when to go to Meijer to try and get some food stuff. I have to make sure that I stay under budget though. I can do this!

Lunch time news

Lunch was very very very good. :) We walked to the restaurant. On the way there I asked a construction worker what would be going into the old Save A Lot Grocery Store building. He informed me that it will be a DOLLAR TREE!!! I nearly fainted. A Dollar Tree that rivals the size of the one behind Golden Corral in Louisville within walking distance. BE still my heart!!!! That brightened my mood. *grins*

We got to the restaurant early and wandered around the store part seeing many lovely things for sale. They have aromatherapy oils and books, burt bee's products, many crafty items, as well as a small garden nursery. They also have samples set out of some of their mixes and I had my appetizers of crackers and dill dip and crackers and beer cheese. YUM!

Once we got seated we scanned the menu. We were surrounded mostly by little old ladies out for the luncheon. I love this restaurant because of this feel. It is definitely not someplace to take the guys. *grins* I got water and the pasta salad of the day, linguine with crab meat, tiny shrimp and fresh veges with a creamy tarragon dressing. It came with veges and the dill dip as well as a small slice of pumpkin bread. *happy content full sigh* They were out of the quiche I would have ordered. It was the spinach and feta cheese quiche. That would have been good. We turned down dessert even though the Dark Choc Reese Cup cheesecake was faintly calling my name.

We left the restaurant and quickly made our way back home just in time to take Phaeton to work. After dropping him off we headed downtown because Caritas had another interview lined up for today. They called this morning and wanted to do the interview today. I dropped her off and ran to the bank and got gas in the car. I got back downtown and there was an open metered spot right in front of the building. My lucky day. I got out and put in 2 nickles (24 minutes) Since I wasnt sure where she would come out I got back into the car, opened the windows alittle and leaned my chair back to wait. I was afraid a cop would come by and ask me what was up. That didnt happen. She came out with 5 minutes still left on the meter and off we went. I had thought that we would go to Meijers, but the warm afternoon and late night caught up to me and I made the executive decision to change my mind.

We started on toward home and got onto a very crowded for the afternoon broadway drive. Soon we found out why. A truck had BURNED and the police and fire were still trying to clean everything up. This truck was gutted by the fire. I hope noone was hurt. We had to be moved over into the left hand lane of the oncoming traffic.

Now we are home and it is NAP time!

Small shopping Trip

I did make it to meijers today. Jeshua called saying he was done with work, and I asked if it would be ok to go. We made a mad dash thru the store, skipping aisles and basically sticking to the list. We were in and out in under 1 hour. That is DAMN good for me.

totals for this trip: Spent: $36.54, Savings in coupons: $22.24, in ad: $23.90 for a total savings on this trip of $46.14. I got 64 items. 24 of those were cans of cat food though. :)

Silly cashier story: I have a coupon from the entertainment book that is $5 off any $50 grocery order. She read it, and then read it again. She then punched in a coupon of $50.00. That was just alittle over my letting it slide amount, so I informed her of the error. She said no, it says $50 right here, and then pointed to it on the coupon. I then pointed out the actual wording. I probably saved her job since her drawer would have been $45.00 short at the end of the day.

Now I must head back out.

*Shudders*

I didnt go swimming tonight. I drove to the pool and it looked so crowded. Swim classes were going on and the 2 lanes were kinda full. I just was not up for that. I drove home and called TS to leave a message on her machine. I think I got a dehydration headache today. I knew being around all the kids in a place that echoes really bad was not going to help that headache.

I got home and crawled upstairs into bed. I napped from about 7 till 9. I fully woke up and had to call downstairs to get Jeshua and Caritas to come up and talk to me. I had to find out if they had been upstairs any, or had I bitched them out? I had a VERY real lucid dream when I was napping. It seemed so REAL. Most of it is fading now, but it was scary. They tried to make me feel better but still wanting reassurances that they arent upset about all the mean things I said (in the dream) and everything that was done in the dream.

I still cant cry. I realized recently that I havent cried in awhile. I have wanted to but havent allowed myself that luxury. I have tried to force it when I really wanted to cry and still nothing. The most recent time was today with going home from the Y. I was in my car in the parking lot and just wanted to ball, nothing. It was right there, but no tears. I was in alot of head pain and I couldnt cry the pressure away. I couldnt cry when I was up taking my nap. I am close now, but nothing. Wonder why this is. I use to cry at least twice a month. A good cry helps me.

I hope I am up for the Y tomorrow. I dont want to quit on this. I probably have overdone it the past week. My body decided it needed a day of rest.

Tonight is date night and I am still edgy. What fun.
