Re: Wacky Wednesday
my read shelf:
Sunday we're heading to the beach for the day to hang out with my cousin & her family as long as the weather is good. Monday not sure yet. Maybe an amusement park, maybe just hanging out at home relaxing & doing some work around the house.
DH is away...again. Last Saturday afternoon into Sunday he was at a bachelor party, this week he's in TN until Sunday night. Three weekends from now he's going on a guys trip. Granted these things have been planned for months but I'm being good and not spending money unless its a necessity. I'm getting a little resentful that he's spending money and I'm not. And I'm tired of having the conversation with him that he needs to spend less and save more.
Also, being an introvert mentioning repeatedly that if I don't have plans this weekend I can call his mom and she'd come down to keep me company. "So think about it" "what do you think you're going to do?" "She'd love to see you", etc. Dude, back off. Pushing me like that only makes me want to retreat into myself.

"Live like there's no midnight."
Just a lot of house projects trying to get things ready for my friend and her kids that are moving in.
It's super stressful actually.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
