Friday Wrap

I think I'm acquiring a shoe problem. Then again are cute shoes ever really a problem, especially when they are on sale? Same goes for skater dresses, mini skirts, and household stuff like shower curtains with matching rugs plus curtains. At least my overspending isn't completely frivolous. Next I want to tackle the dog's room. They need another crate and non stuffed crate beds along with a blanket or two since I'm getting rid of the mattress in there. They are tearing it apart and it's driving me insane. I will try to restrain myself for now but it's good to have goals.

This morning i took my antimanic since I seemed to be just dipping a toe into hypomania. Sigh, it's so nice there until it isn't. The up side is I now have a very tidy house, and I've done some decorating and organizing our bedroom. The downside is the compulsion to spend money. This is why I keep a low balance credit card, can't spend what isn't there although I do make valiant attempts.

Yesterday was funny because I was sending out and receiving bunches of Happy Thanksgiving greetings but it wasn't Thanksgiving here so everyone was surprised that we weren't having a huge meal and Das was working. Funny how you don't think of stuff like that until you are directly confronted with it.

Sunday is my official welcome into the catholic church as an initiate. Weeee! It's the first step of many but I'm still excited about it. I even made sure to purchase a dress that will pass muster since we will be sitting on the first pew. no need to flash the priests.

So far winter has been pretty mild. Even though it was only a high of 3 today I was ok in a jacket with gloves. Funny not to be bundled up like the kid from A Christmas Story but I guess I'm getting acclimated.

Have been reading more on femininity again. It's interesting to me how extreme some people are about it. Personally I'm not a goddess or a queen. I'm a woman who likes presenting as a soft sensitive woman and who is attracted to masculine energy, preferably in a man. I suppose it's one of those take what you can from it and leave the rest type of things.

We had Japanese cheesecake today. Yumm is not a yummy enough word for that deliciousness. Somehow fluffy yet packed full of cheesecake flavor. It won't be an everyday dessert but as a special treat I'm all in.

Talked to my dad the other day. He expressed surprise that I am highly anxiety ridden. How this is a surprise I have no idea as I was painfully shy as a child but talking to my dad is always an exercise in restraint.

My poor dogs have been putting up with me singing all week. It's been one of those belt out pop songs type of weeks. They take it all in stride as long as they are properly bribed first. Kids and pets bribary works with both. Finally getting sleepy after over a week with only a couple hours of sleep, yay!
