I got a lot done today, and the day is not over yet! I’ve done the grocery shopping, all of the laundry, cleaned the kitchen and made a hundred bucks writing articles. Hopefully that money will go towards something we need and not vet bills this time. We also went for a little walk on the trail with the dogs, which was fun. Today it was in the eighties and sunny…nice!

I usually don’t go on the trail because I feel trapped (you can’t get off of it whenever you want, you have to just keep walking!) but I decided that it was too nice of a day to go to the gym instead of being outside. Thankfully, I managed to have fun and not feel the usual trapped crazy feeling. I think it might be because I decided that I can’t just give into those irrational feelings, at least not today! That, and it’s simply easier to walk longer distances since I’ve been going to the gym and have lost some weight. Anyway, it was sooo beautiful.

I begged off a last minute birthday party for Sage’s cousin. My sister-in-law is a piece of work. Words are useless here. Suffice it to say that she gossips viciously about everybody, and when I saw her at the community pool this summer, she pretended like she didn’t even see me, even though our kids were playing together. She has taught her daughter some atrocious things. I was appalled when that formerly sweet middle school student told me that she believed she was better than the girls who DIDN’T have a collection of Coach and Kate Spade purses. Whatever! I called her out on it, even though we were at a family dinner. I didn’t say a tenth of what I wanted to, though! Anyway, I guess I did have some words about my sister-in-law. The evil one, that is. The new one is a real sweetie-pie.

I can’t believe I’m still writing at this point. I’m surprised my fingers aren’t nubs!
