Today Did Not Mean What I Thought It Would Mean

I thought today would mean the following:

  • Tidy
  • Take Leone to work
  • Get groceries from Costco
  • Get a coffee and work on my course syllabus for the spring
  • Finish up a bit more housework
  • Work out
  • Pick up Leone from work



But today actually meant:
  • *strange no-man's-land of the morning* I have no idea what I did before 12:30...
  • Take Leone to work
  • Try and find a pair of pants for work and have a whole *thing* about my job (not a real job), my work clothes (not professional enough for what I want to do, but no money with the semi-job to upgrade all that much), and my ass (rather bootylicious right now, I love it.. but I don't know that I'm ready for all that jelly).
  • Actually do find some work pants and then have all these issues because I have a smaller pair I've never worn so have some guilt
  • Costco
  • Forget car keys in store
  • Finally get home and have only 30min before tutoring...
  • Tutor because I can't say no when getting a phone call at 11:30am to tutor on my day off - but I used today's $ to buy the pants plus a BEAUTIFUL blue retro sweater and a new pair of fluffy pjs.


Not that today meant a bad thing - it was just not what I thought it would mean.

Ahhh! you made me snort! Hee!

Yes, picking Leone up was actually easier as I tutor at the mall where she works.

Appropriate work clothes was a huge issue for me when I started.

Now I go to Winners. Specifically, the bargain rack at Winners. Mostly, there's only crap, but sometimes there's something really really good and cheap like dirt (actually, if you've ever gone to a garden centre, dirt's not all the cheap). Yep.

I kinda hate days where I'm just not sure what I did at the end.

I know what you mean about the work clothes. Mostly, I'm lacking tops to wear to work, and end up with fitted t-shirt tops, and the same old thick cardigan/fleeces.

When the temp rises above 5C outside first thing in the morning/evening, I'll start wearing my skirts!
