Interrupted
My Life Thus Far
Semblance of Normalcy
It was a good day. An uneventful day, but honestly, I need way more of those! Seems like the past few months have been one hit after another. I'll take whatever semblance of normalcy I can get. Uneventful days are good.
I'm pleased with myself for giving myself enough time to get ready for work and still make it to the post office to mail Gen's package. Usually I procrastinate on things like that to the point where I barely have time to get ready and make it to work on time. Or I don't make it to work on time (I probably wouldn't cut it so close all the time if someone actually paid attention to when I got there. No one does). I got lucky, there was no line at the post office. I even had time to grab some lunch and walk around Target a little while. The highlight of my day.
I got so many compliments on my hair today! You know it looks good when habitual shoplifters comment on how nice of a change it is (yes, we have "regulars" who come in to steal. Sad but true). All of my coworkers kept looking. Christine didn't recognize me at first. It was great receiving such a wonderful reaction, especially since I wasn't too sure how it would go over when I did it. I liked it, but who knows how others will feel. Not that it matters all that much, but still. Who doesn't like a compliment? I feel so stylish and on trend. For a while I was just getting frustrated with my hair. Now I feel like I can appreciate it that much more. I have good hair :)
I didn't get to see Keenan today. Snookums took him to the bus stop before I woke up (and I normally wake up to see him off. I feel slightly bad about that). I had to work before he got home from school, and since I closed I didn't get home until long after he'd gone to bed. Snookums said he seemed like he's taking the nutcracker disappointment in stride. I knew given some time to process it, he'd be fine. I'm over it. But then again, I was only upset because he was upset. I'm actually thrilled I don't have to sacrifice myself for the cause. Come next year if it becomes necessary, I will. Of course, but I'm off the hook this year!
