Good For Me

02/04/2012

Yesterday I went shopping with Mom and it wasn't bad. It's sad that doing something normal, like shopping, is a huge accomplishment for me these days. It was nice to go out and be able to do something normal, and it was probably good for me.

We went to the mall first. We both had to go to Hallmark and JcPenneys. I ended up getting 7 cards for numerous things. 3 Valentine's for Lucas, Katelynn and Cameron; and 4 birthday cards for Katelynn, Cameron, Jen and Alicia. Some aren't until March but I figured I would get them taken care of because who knows when I'll go shopping again. I looked for a 1st St Patrick's Day card for Cameron and was shocked that I couldn't find one. In JCP I got Katelynn an outfit for her birthday. I had a coupon so it only cost me $2!

We went to KFC/Taco Bell for lunch. The other night I was watching a show and they were eating tacos, so I had a huge craving for that. And I've been wanting KFC's fried chicken for months now! So... I got some tacos and one piece of chicken. But that chicken was so damn good that I wish I would've gotten some more!

We went to Walmart for groceries. I was surprised that I didn't feel as bad as I thought I would've by that point. I was getting tired, though. Even though Cameron's birthday isn't until March I don't know what to get him. But Kohl's will be open by then so I should find something in there, especially cute clothes.

By the time we got home it was 4. I tried taking a nap, but that didn't happen. Around 6:30 I finally got out of bed and ate supper. We brought home a taco pizza and it was so damn good! I even get to eat leftovers today. And since I was so damn tired I fell asleep right after 11. I had to keep myself awake from 10-11 to watch tv.

So Thursday I started my period, which made them a month apart. Since I stopped taking the pill I haven't been regular. I'd like to think that maybe I'll start being regular, but I doubt it. This is how I was before I started the pill.

I need to order some things from Amazon for Katelynn's birthday and send them to Jen's. I'm getting her another Snap N Style doll and another outfit for it. I was also going to get her Dora Mega Bloks, and then I realized that I forgot about her Precious Moment figurine I get her every year! I felt like such a bad Aunt... But thankfully I remembered! Plus I got her an outfit and another shirt, which I'm hoping will fit her since I picked it up last Fall when it was only $2. I'm getting Lucas some new Batman Legos. I think he's still at the age where he would feel left out if Katelynn gets something and he doesn't, even though it's her Birthday. That, and I like to spoil them.

I work later today. I'm not sure how busy we'll be since the Super Bowl is tomorrow. With the weather being so nice I don't know if people will be going to Olean or if they'll just get their stuff here in town.
