Friday randoms/confessions

It's one week until Christmas. Does anybody have anything to share? This place has been deader than dead over the past couple weeks.

Re: Friday randoms/confessions

  • I just impulse bought 2 tickets to see Garth Brooks in February.  DH hates country music and so I seriously doubt he'll want to come with, but I didn't even think twice about it, I just bought them because they went on sale today, they were available and they were only $75/each.  I have no idea who will go to the show with me, but I bought two tickets.

    I'm going to see Garth Brooks!!
  • I've hit my usual Christmas/birthday funk, and it's worse than usual because I turn the big 4-0 on Monday. I don't want to deal with anybody or anything and I'm grouchy. I'm trying really hard not to let it show around DH, though, because he loves Christmas and I don't want to ruin it for him with my seasonal pissy mood. It's also a good thing that today is my last day of work until the 28th, because I need a break like whoa.

    We saw his first show back last year. DH is not a country fan nor does he care for concerts much but he enjoyed it. Garth puts on a great show.

  • Our big family Christmas is tomorrow and we have cousins over afterwards. DH took off today to help finish wrapping/cleaning/etc. Pretty sure he's wishing he was at work with everything I'm having him do. ***evil laugh*** >:)

    I've hit my usual Christmas/birthday funk, and it's worse than usual because I turn the big 4-0 on Monday. I don't want to deal with anybody or anything and I'm grouchy. I'm trying really hard not to let it show around DH, though, because he loves Christmas and I don't want to ruin it for him with my seasonal pissy mood. It's also a good thing that today is my last day of work until the 28th, because I need a break like whoa.
    I had a mini breakdown last night due to the holiday funk too. My husband and I are both working tonight, he's working Sat night and Sunday. We're two ships passing until Christmas day, then he's back to work the next day, hence no option for 2 family Christmases. I almost got in a fight with someone else on FB because I posted an article about why spouses of people in my husbands profession have holiday funk, apparently you can't be sad or stressed this time of year.

    Enjoy your vacation! I get 3 days off next week and I'm so ready.


  • And related to the Garth, I'm slowing getting into country. I have a friend I never see and he's trying to get me to go to country shows. As a bonus H doesn't like country so I'd have a buddy to keep me company.
  • I adore country music and would definitely be down for some Garth. ;)

    My random is that I am considering making an appointment to see a Naturopathic Physician in January to help balance my whacked out hormones. 

    My confession is that I am going to be doing a juice cleanse in January, so I have been eating like total crap this month. Processed everything. If it comes in a box with a powdered sauce packet, I have been eating it. I know this will just make the cleanse harder but can't help myself.
