Day Eighty Three.

    I had a bit of a meltdown today after I was finished shopping and I had to call my second to oldest sister to vent. I feel bad because she was having her own issues but I pretty much dominated the conversation. I am lucky that I have sisters I can call when I feel like I really need to talk to someone! It seems that depending what the issues is usually determines which sister I call. The reason I needed to vent was because I was frustrated because my boyfriend was going to be late again because of his unreliable car needing to be seen at the shop. After our conversation I felt a lot better and when my boyfriend did show up I was glad that my mood was 100% better....I'm sure he was glad too!
    Today was an incredibly busy day off which started with me having to go to a training class for work. I am really glad that I didn't back out of going because I learned a lot and I know it will help my performance at work. Prior to going my twin sister had texted saying she wouldn't be able to come shopping with me because of the weather....it was pretty snowy this morning. I was a little disappointed, of course, and it changed the flow of my day a little bit because I thought I wouldn't have much time after work to get ready for shopping. With the extra time I was able to come home and shovel off the back deck and start my Mother's car. Clearing off the back deck was annoying because my dog has apparently been going to the bathroom back there so it was a bit of a mess!
    Once I was done with the deck I ate lunch, hopped in the shower then folded the laundry from the day before. Before I even went out to go shopping I was dreading it, but I was pretty confident I would find what I needed. I did find a few things I needed, but not everything. I think I have a hard time deciding what to get when I'm shopping alone, that's why I wish I had a companion. After the mall I had to go to Target....I ran out of soap:( I was shocked to find out that when I got there they didn't have any of my go to soap for the bathroom....I think because it's still price cut at $3.99. Instead of the usual SoafSoap I got a bottle of the generic Target brand and I will see how that works out for me. They did have the kind I use for the kitchen and that was price cut as well so I got more of those than I usually do, in case I don't like the generic. Everything I bought at Target was on sale but I still can't believe how expensive the bill ended up being. I am trying to tell myself that I shouldn't be too upset because I did get a few Christmas presents, but still!
    I don't have to much to do tomorrow morning before work so hopefully I will have a more relaxing morning than yesterday. I really need to start working on my Christmas cards! If I could get them in the mail by the end of this week it would be great. I really don't have that many to send so it doesn't take forever, but it's still a bit of a project. I would absolutely love it if I actually had time to read some of my book tomorrow morning:) Alright, that's it for now!
