I am no sure why but I have not been doing these anymore…I used to once a week or so. I am in an pissy mood today and feel like I need to though, to vent/force myself to remember some good stuff.
Bad
1. It’s Diva time. (probably part of the reason I am so pissy).
2. Everytime I go to someone’s house it is bigger than mine. Nicer than mine. In a better area than mine. With nicer decorating then mine. Usually with more kids than mine (not that I want them, but I’d like to feel like we could afford them-and still have the same lifestyle-if we did want them). And a less employed mother than I am. How come everyone can afford so much more than we can? Everyone we know, anyways.
3. Something private that I shall not blog about (don’t bother asking), but that keeps recurring and makes me pissy.
4. Our social life sucks. We have no *family friends* to do things with, and it makes me sad for ourselves and the girl. Growing up, we were always hanging out with other families. I wish we had that now. All my (like, 3) friends are single or their kids are very young, all the man’s (like, 3) friends have older school aged kids or are single. The few friends/aquaintances we have that are the *right demographic* never seem to want to do stuff with us, or never ask anyways, and I get sick of being the one to chase them down. So the three of us are always on our own.
5. I’ve been back on fit-day for a few weeks now (3, maybe???) but am yet to lose a pound. My body just wants to stay where it is now, which is fat.
Good
1. We did lots of fun stuff this weekend (Bowmanville Zoo, met with friends from one of my bulletin boards, went to a party for my cousin’s new baby, had dinner at my sister in law’s house and the man’s whole fmaily was there-which is a good thing as I like them all).
2. We are going to Florida in 2 ½ months. Hopefully. If we ever book it. At least we finally applied for our passports.
3. We are all healthy.
4. We are not destitute.
5. The girl is happy.
Pics from the weekend, since I am too lazy to do another post:

We have very few friends as well. Almost all my friends are child free or don’t live around here and the one friend I have with a child close to Julian’s age will probably be moving in a few months. I keep hoping that will change when Julian starts going to school this fall.
Of course, I am twitchy and anti-social, so it is hard for me to get up the energy/nerve to arrange things.

As for people having nicer houses- next time you are in STC you can come to mine and I’ll give you the full tour. Trust me, your house is the taj compared to my dated 1970’s beast of a living room (complete with orangey brown carpet)
and I’d do more stuff with you if I lived closer!

It’s called living in debt or on credit.
