When I don't post it is either because a. I'm too busy (which is usually good) or b. things are shitty.
I've been busy.
The youngest had all last week off from school and even he remarked at how much got crammed into the week.
This is a kid who is quite content to play with his friends on-line and "outside" is pretty much a foreign concept unless he's asked to walk the dog.
So part of the time I was taking care of two kids-- went to Brookfield Zoo (eight dollars just to park)--very nice but windy day--tried my (first) camera phone for the first time--didn't have a clue what I was doing. Got it figured out now.
Movies--the boys watched Robots again--there's not much out right now suitable for 12.5 y.o.'s. I saw The Upside Of Anger. Best film I've seen in ages. The female lead Joan Allen, was like a force of nature. I'm absolutely sure she'll be Academy Award nominated. Very much enjoyed myself.
Spouse and I went out Friday night to see my bro-in-law play in one of his bands. They have a new lead singer who sucks pretty bad, so bro-in-law is sounding like he'll shift more of his time to his primary band. His wife is part of the team technically though she's not a band member, kinda reminds me of Paul and Linda McCartney and how even though she couldn't play an instrument or sing, he put her in the band anyway--just so they could be together.
Work is very busy. I'm getting some good final auction prices on the stuff I'm selling. Sometimes I feel guilty that people are paying too much.
I know, I do not have the mind-set to be a big money maker. I do work hard though and I'm doing some stuff that is fun--namely the photography and post-photography on the products.
Not a lot else. The college was closed so no swimming for over a week. I'm anxious to get back to that. Yoga doesn't take the place of it nor does walking, though I get a pretty good workout at the store whilst hauling books, climbing ladders, and just generally working at a frantic pace.
I have been struggling with disordered eating. I suppose most people would chalk it up to overeating a couple times--and we have been eating out a lot--but I'm also obsessing over my fat this and that and that's not good at all. It's so easy to fall back into old patterns. :sigh:
