Pity party

Happy first day of spring....it was bright and sunny and we should have gone outside. Instead, we slept....ehhh....
I haven't felt well today...girl problems, of course. Bleh. I read a cookbook called The Mom's Guide to Meal Makeovers by Janice Newell Bissex and Liz Weiss. Very good ideas on how to make convience type foods (mac & cheese, chicken nuggets, etc) more nutritious. I am going to try the Blueberry snack cake, and the taco seasoning. I was so excited about trying some of these things, so I decided to do the bills tonight, before I ordered groceries. Then discovered that we don't have enough in the checkbook to pay for bills and groceries...and payday is 2 weeks away. We haven't been spending friviolusly, so I think it was the large credit card payment combined with a short month (smaller paycheck for me) that threw things off. But I was at the table, crying and crying. So, we paid what we could, and I'll have to actually shop for groceries for the next couple of weeks. I like having the groceries delivered, but I don't like the $8.00 delivery charge. So....I guess I get to charge groceries for a couple of weeks, and then don't pay quite as much on Hubby's credit card next month to make up for it. Ugh....I hate money! So, on top of feeling physically icky, I am emotionally icky. *sigh* But, I mailed my paper in "early." It's not great, but I don't really care. I don't care for this class at all, and it sucks that I get to spend my "spring break" working on a research paper.
So I don't sound like a whiney bitch ALL the time....let's celebrate the fact that I have 2 four day work weeks coming up :) Sleep in Friday and Monday :) I have a breakfast date/meeting on Saturday for the reunion and then we are going to brunch with Hubby's mom's side of the family. Ugh....super dreading that. Dinner with my parents here on Saturday....yummy dinner and a little brain picking for my class.
Ok...gotta feed the cats...they are closing in!!!
