That was the FIRST thought on my mind this morning and you know what it's pertaining to? The fact that it's 9 Effing degrees outside and there's a wind chill advisory. Fuck that. Seriously. I got in at 1 something this morning from a friend's house and it was 14 and BRUTAL. I want sand, and sun, and FLIP FLOPS. I MISS MY FLIP FLOPS DAMNIT!!! Ugh. I'm flying to Los Angeles in late February and may just not come back until summer.
Anyway, so I'm totally procrastinating right now because I do need to get up. My daughter is missing school today because she has an orthodontist appt and an oral surgeon appt this morning. I don't envy her. The thought of the dentist makes my teeth hurt. However, I very much plan on taking her to a great lunch afterwards because the poor girl is a worrier and is going to be asking a zillion questions about having to get 2 teeth pulled at a later date and if she's going to need braces, when she has to get them, if they'll hurt, etc. etc. I don't remember worrying so much as a kid and I'm definitely pretty laid back when it comes to that stuff now so I have no idea where it comes from for her.
Definitely an update on all that later...
As for me?? Well, my days have gotten significantly better. I've been just stupidly busy as always but I'd say since I last posted, I feel like me again. There's a couple things I want to do today if I get the time. The first is to register for at least 3 5K's and 1 10K this year. My mile time is continuing to improve and I attribute that to making myself do at least 3 miles a day if not more (on the days I don't weight train because it's only a mile on weight days. Who wants to run when you're working legs?).
The second, is I want to make a new "Dear Santa" list. The list of things I want in a guy. Not too much has changed but I do want to go back and re-read it & edit it a bit & add some things to it. THAT I'm excited about because if things keep up like they have the last 3 days, I'll be glad to say that I'm in a much better place & ready to start over with someone new. I'm still terrified that I'll have to go through heartbreak again but recently, I think I might have been proven wrong in thinking that all guys are the same. Trust me, I'm happy to say that and I've always been of the "no risk, no reward" mindset.
So, with that said, I'm off to shower and curse my way through starting the Jeep to warm up while I eat breakfast so I can somehow brave this cold. I need a parka in this nonsense. And someone to lay with that'll let me keep my feet warm up against them (eh hem...requirement #1 of the new list). :)
More later...
