I am ever so boring. Quite odd and all of that. I turned down three Fourth of July invites.
Yes, that was me.
The hubby is overseas and I am in a quaint little town that is actually becoming a bigger town. Small town politics rule the day and it is all about who you know. I know plenty of people, just not the right people, not the people that matter.
I have sat in my house for days binge watching a television series. Now, I have been outside of my house too. I have taken the kids on outings, but today, not today. The highlight of our celebration was running to the grocery store for a free cookie for the kids, eggs, and tortillas. So very exciting I am.
The solitude of my house is rather comforting. No need to laugh or be involved. Not really a need to shower or get dressed. I am blessed that my kids have gone along with this plan. They do have tablets to occupy them.
A feeble attempt to mow the lawn. Twice side tracked, once to buy clothing from a sales page, and once by rain.
Happy oiling I have been on this quiet day. Blending away my essential oils and feeling the calming effects. Sprayed the dog with the anti-flea blend, yep, bye-bye fleas. He still needs a bath.
It has rained, looks to be more rain on the way. All the linens in my house are clean and fresh and my sweet little daughter unmade each bed.
Cleaned out closets, added sales post to a sales page. Checked facebook a million times. Posted pictures and played a game. Watched the news, cooked a small lunch. Fishsticks burned so badly the dog wouldn't touch them, kids didn't seem to notice. Hurray for tablets!
Need to clean kitchen. Will tackle that next. Going to watch more mindless television and eat ice cream. Kids will sleep in their rooms and tonight I will sleep well.
Talked to hubby, pray I made sense. Tackled the confusion of our minds and walked down a path of dreams for our future. Not quite sure we are walking in the same direction on the path that we are on.
Looming in my near future is a tiny adventure. One I am ready for, but hesitant to begin. Excited for the upcoming hugs and laughter, praying there are no tears or awkwardness.
I am in love. I am feeling beautiful and sexy and the fact that 40 is looming large is not scaring me. Like a powerful lion I am on the savannah awaiting the prey and ready to tackle it all. I am mighty!
There is no point to this, just the desire to share how randomness lives and thrives inside of my brain on quiet days spent inside my house away from other adults.
Be safe out there
