It was good to ease into a new way of living on a Sunday.
Sunday’s are slow lazy days and there’s no guilt, even the liquor stores aren’t
open. I finished a menu for next week and K and I successfully battled the
gridlocked Giant Eagle and only surfaced missing a few items. Dinner was ok
with our typical baked chicken strips popping with a bit of curry and
hand-ground cumin.
I got some inspiration from a stop-motion animator named
Kirsten Lepore and glued some eye balls onto a new Fluppet.
I’m adjusting my thinking to a person who doesn’t have any
money to buy anything. Truth is, I’ve only got a couple hundred in the bank and
as it stands, no prospects for work. I think I might take a week to myself and
then hit it hard. But at least for awhile, I need to just delete those groupons
and sales e-mails and stick to doing things that don’t cost money and reusing
when I can.
It’s a different balance in our house now, this is the first
time he’s had a good steady long(ish) term job and I’ve been unemployed. I’m
looking into the future at some challenges that will hit us. Me feeling bitter
and resentful about his great career. Me going crazy by myself. Me drinking to
not think about things. Ok, maybe those are all MY problems. We’ll see…
