Although today started rough, the end was pretty good.
I woke up at 4:30, worrying about selling our calendars (almost mid-December and we have 1000 still sitting at home) and about if I offended someone at church yesterday. I decided to get up, since I wasn't going back to sleep.
I had high expectations for the day, hoping to get a lot done in the morning. However, once I got up, cuddled the cat and started reading my Bible, I began to nod off. I struggled to stay awake and study, but 2 hours after I had gotten up, I had accomplished very little that I had wanted to.
My Mr. was hungry for breakfast, but I still hadn't exercised. He agreed to wait, and I got in a good hour of Zumba. We had noodle soup for breakfast and then off to the market.
The aisles are narrow, cluttered with boxes, produce and people. You can only shuffle along at times, making your way slowly. Well, today someone behind me was in a hurry. She kept nudging and pushing and when we got to an open area she brushed past, using her elbow to get ahead. I was ticked, and before I even consciously thought about it, my foot edged out toward hers. I actually wanted to trip her! Fortunately my mind took over and stopped my foot in time, but really. What am I, 38 or 8???
So, back home, chopped, browned, mixed, and got supper in the crock pot. By that time it was 10:30 and I hadn't accomplished nearly all that I had hoped. But I started in anyway. I got a bit done before lunch, which my Mr. made. He's a master sandwich maker.
I indulged in a bit of a nap, since I got up so early, and then in a half-an-hour of Bejeweled Blitz. Then back at it. I worked steadily all afternoon: two different design projects completed, even though I had originally hoped to have both of those jobs finished before lunch. I guess my expectations were too high. But if felt good to get them done.
