Another day...

So, it's another day and we're here at home taking it somewhat light and easy.  I am thinking about going out to do a few errands today, but nothing crazy.  Just a few returns and maybe get a few things at Wally.  I probably should run to the grocery store, but that will have to wait until later after nap time.  I only have about 2hrs. til school pick-up.  I wanted to do this first, then get going.  Crap.  Just realized I need to do my bills and go over the budget for the next few months.  *sigh*  I think I will do that during naptime.  Not super happy about my card balance this month.  It's a couple hundred higher than I thought it would be.  I mis-calculated due to returns and stuff.  I'll get it sorted out!  But then again, I did end up buying a lot of shoes lately.  I hadn't really bought shoes in a couple of years and in the last couple of months I have been trying to get them back in shape.  I had been hating having to scrounge around every time I got dressed.  However, I am returning some of the stuff I bought.  A pair of leggings, a pair of boots, and then I am going to check a pair of boots at Target and if they are indeed the exact same pair I just bought but $20 cheaper, I WILL be returning one pair and getting the cheaper pair as long as they fit as comfy!

I did my weigh-in yesterday but it was super early and sorta forgot until hubby and I were talking.  My first number was 191 flat.  Then when I weighed a bit later, 192.5.  And by a bit later I mean just a few minutes.  So, not sure what that was about.  I am choosing to go with the 191.5 that I have seen most of the week.  This AM I was 192.  And considering I was a spaghetti eating monster at my MIL's, well, I think that is good!  I had been craving a good spaghetti and hers is SO good.  It was also the perfect meal for that sort of day.  I just wish more of the family had come over.  It would've been nice to see more people considering we were there for the wake.  The wake went ok.  I just couldn't stand it.  Death is hard for me.  I feel almost empathic because I feel like I feel everyone else's sorrow and I know I can't do anything about it.  SO many people came to the actual wake.  There had to have been between 100 to 200 people.  It was busy!  I hope that this somehow comforted their family to know how much Uncle D was loved.  He was such a nice man.  It was closed casket but somehow that is good in this situation.  That way everyone remembers him laughing and joking.  My Granny's was open and that was what worked for our situation.  It is still hard for me to realize she is gone.  I miss her so much.  D will be missed that way.

One strange thing that happened is that Michael got to touch base with his cousin.  They grew up more like brothers but hadn't seen each other in forever.  And when he got married, not one single person thought to tell us from the hubby's side.  Like I said, they are a STRANGE bunch.  And honestly, I was ticked.  But oh well, it is what it is.  Anyways, got to meet the cousins wife and OMG did we look like twins!  I have never really met anyone in person that looked so much like me.  We were even dressed very much alike.  It was kinda trippy.  Even the cuz was sorta surprised!  Just a weird little tidbit.  However, she was covered in these gorgeous tats.  I have never had the guts to get them, but from what I could see, hers were quite beautiful.  Although, I didn't want to stare.  I was afraid she'd think I was a perv!  LOL

OK, I am back home now.  Didn't get to finish earlier because I got up to do one thing and well, I ended up leaving and now I'm back.  I returned the one set of boots and the leggings and bought another set of boots.  I like them MUCH better so I may be returning the other boots, too.  In the end, it will be about $55 cheaper.  Good trade!  :D  And better more practical boots.  Hopefully the hubby likes them, too.

Well, I better get going with my day.  Trying to get youngest to sleep, having a little snack, and then going to get to work on bills and some housework.  Fun fun!  Hopefully all will be pretty well in order by the time the hubby gets in.  I will have to catch up on blogs later or tomorrow.

P.S.  Still no new car and now something on the car is 'slipping'.  UGH.  I hope we can go tomorrow to get a new one!
