Days Go By
October 22nd, 2008It seems that just yesterday was May, and yet next week will introduce November. I can tell that winter is coming because my hair is becoming increasingly static-y.
At times, I wonder where the time has gone, and then I think back and remember that each week has flown by. Like this week, for example. Work is busy, so time flies there. Then I have the gym… after that, it’s evening and one day is gone. And each day this week so far, the LotR and/or I have been busy with other things after work. Last night after our martial arts class, we rushed to celebrate the LotR’s father’s 65th birthday. We got home around 9:30. Today after the gym, I rushed to meet friends for a shopping trip. After they left, I went to a couple of other stores to pick up some kitchen stuff. Okay, okay. And shoes. Tomorrow I have martial arts and also need to pick up some dry-cleaning along with jeans that I had to get hemmed up.
Speaking of jeans, I am a firm believer that clothes-makers and tailors have formed a diabolical team. I bought another pair of jeans tonight. I held the waist up to my boobs and the bottom cuffs still brushed the floor. Amazing.
Again, speaking of jeans, the pair I got tonight is a whole size smaller than what I had been wearing! I had been wearing a 27-waist… my new pair is a delightfully-fitting (except for the length) size 26. I guess all that dieting and working out has paid off! Let’s see how they hold up after this weekend trip to Vegas…
Now, I’m terribly tired. Hopefully I’ll have something more exciting to post later this weekend
