Things To Do
I've got PLANS for my weekend, let me tell you
This has been a lazy couple of weeks, clearly, as I've been mostly off the low carb diet since the night before our braai last Saturday, and now we have ANOTHER party to attend tomorrow. Well, I'm showing up with a salami and cheese plate in hand if only to keep my fingers out of as much of the other not low carb food as is going to be there. I'll already be drinking up a storm and probably eating too many deserts, I don't need to stuff pasta and chips in my face too.
This of course means a Costco run, which I hate but have, blessedly, been mostly excused from since I'm dating the most sainted man ever who doesn't necessarily mind going to the store. However, I made the mistake last week of mentioning my willingness to hit Costco myself since I need kitty litter. I didn't end up going last week, and now Feller is holding me to that promise of going alone. Apparently, he is also suffering from some shopping fatigue.
I also need to get myself and all our bags and bags of recyclables down to the recycling place because Trader Joe's bags full of glass and plastic bottles and cans are taking over our kitchen a little. At least I'll have a few dollars in my pocket for my trouble, but not nearly as much as I think I should be getting for how much saving the earth we're doing.
On the upside, I have been quite diligent about getting my hiney to the library every day after work and finishing a module or two before heading home. It's turning into quite the nice habit, and, at least for now, I'm still getting home before Feller so I can take care off my chores and just relax and enjoy spending time with him when he arrives.
Of course, I have been SLIGHTLY less diligent about some other things: the basket of clean, unfolded laundry sitting in the middle of our bedroom floor for example. I'll probably fold it tonight, just in time for there to be MORE clean laundry to fold on Sunday.
Also, I continue to be INFINITELY thankful for the he cooks/I clean arrangement Feller and I have. I love not having to worry about feeding myself in the evenings. It's the best ever, and I eat a lot less pizza because of it.
