Last week was just pure crap. No way to sugar coat it. More ridiculous games are being played and I
have let it eat me up. I'm frustrated in myself because I've let the stress just chomp away at my insides. I wish so badly that I could take my own
advice and step away. I wish so badly
that I could not let it destroy me and make me cry.
But I’m me. For
better or worse, that’s just not how I roll.
However, Sunday was a different story.
For the most part.
When I went to my car to leave, it was broken into. For the second time in a little over a year.
But I have no idea, as was the case last time, how it
happened. Because nothing was
broken. My car has automatic locks. So even if I forget to lock it, which I never
do but let’s pretend, it locks by itself.
{So annoying when bringing in groceries.} But I came out and stuff was everywhere
inside. As I keep about five random CD’s
and a stack of McDonald’s napkins and not much else in my car, nothing was
taken. But it was still really strange.
Dealing with it made me late but it didn't dampen my day too
much. I was then off to celebrate Alpha
Gamma Delta’s International Reunion Day with my local chapter. It’s been 14 months since I was last
there. For seven years I barely went
four days between visits. I was a bit
nervous to go back, but I have to say it was so amazing! I loved seeing my advisor friends and
catching up. The time away from the mix
has been so healthy for me. {Though the
irony is not lost on me that I stepped away from that to focus on JL only to
realize I needed to get the heck out of shady dodge this year. If I wasn't still crying I would be
laughing.} Tip to tail it was a lovely
event.
And then I was off.
The day was…wait for it…sunny and…warm.
Together. Sunny AND warm. Holy moly!
It seems that spring popped into town yesterday. Is she here to stay? Who knows.
But it made running errands so much fun!
I felt like I got five times as much accomplished simply because of the
amazing weather. Good music, cheerful
sunshine and a Mickey D’s Diet Crack…and these are a few of my favorite things!
When I got home, I cleaned and organized. I transplanted all of my tomatoes to
pots! {Will finish transplanting
everything else this week.} I took the
longest and best walk with Sadie that we've had in six months. Then I worked out. And at the end of it all, I watched Call The
Midwife.
Seriously…the best day!
Nothing major happened.
But maybe that’s the point. It
was just simple and productive and light-hearted.
I needed that day so badly.
My cup feels …well maybe not full…but certainly less empty.
I’m even blogging. I
mean…hello…long time no chat.
I need more weekends like this one. More Super Sundays to soak up the sunshine
and get boxes checked off my to-do list.
My Sunday was awesome.
How was yours?

My Sunday kind of sucked. I was hungover and got stuck on the bus on the way back from NYC, but my Saturday rocked! Glad you can be in your happy place again!
It was a decent day here on Sunday too, it actually felt like spring, so we made margaritas to go with dinner! Glad to hear you had a great day, we all need a pick me up like that. I hope all the other crap resolves itself soon. (((hugs)))
So glad you had a good day. Love reading your blog!

I am so glad you are feeling maybe not great but better. I so do enjoy reading your blog and I feel if we meet in person-we would be friends.
I hate that about your car. I am glad you still had fun that afternoon.
