Well I pretty much had a good day today. Very busy, cleaning, homeschooling, etc. D8 and I went to a pool party for the church kids but there were a bunch of moms there also. It rained almost the while time, so the kids only had about 20 minutes in the pool, but such is life here lately! I was just glad it wasn't a hurricane!!! \:\)

I was a GALing champ tonight (I think). Came home made dinner then got myself fixed up, even put lip gloss on! \:\) and was going out right after H pulled in as he was a little early. I just ran errands but still was fun. I went to the drugstore and got some hair color stuff but I chickened out and didn't get the blonder color I planned, but just the same dark blonde color I've had the past year. But it's supposed to add shine and cover the grays so since this is my 1st time coloring I thought it was being brave of me to do that. When I told D8 she said I am a chicken, so I told her if this works out I will go really blonde or bright red or something next time!!! \:\)

Then came home and did go upstairs to work out b/c I wanted/needed to, but then came down right before H left to work somemore on the kitchen (I'm still covering all the molding in painter's tape but hope to actually prime tomorrow)! So I'm no longer "hiding out" anymore as y'all suggested and were right about of course! \:\)

I told H I had bought the primer and tape, but still needed to get the yellow paint and needed $10 or so for that still.
He was telling me I was blowing the paint money as he's given me $20 twice as he walked out the door. Well, I was steamed over that b/c that's how he views stuff; he's on vacation and I'm blowing the money.

Well, I emailed him I spent $80 on storm prep, ice, batteries, flashlights, canned food, etc as we had none of that! Then I had to throw out the food in the frig and freezer and replace it all. $25 for the rental car deposit, etc. I told him it's not like I'm blowing the money on eating out or something. Do you think he's just a total idiot or an a$$ I can't decide!!! Probably shouldn't have sent the email but it felt good and it was just such a ridiculous comment to make by somebody spending money on a vacation with his girlfriend while his W is trying to feed the kids!!!

BTW, tonight I was really feeling strong, dropped rope, and looking forward to having a healthy R with a nice guy sometime hopefully in the near future!!!! \:\) Karen
