I took myself on a date to Chili's after work. it's been a crazy week of 10 and 12 hour days, with no time to invest in meal planning or meal making. Besides, sometimes it's just flat out nice to be served.

I went thrift shopping. One of my favorite past times...

I went on a run. Headed for round 2!

We have a ritzy neighborhood here that has a community yard sale twice a year. I always miss it. This time I planned for it. I got some good deals and only spent about 60 bucks, came home with a truck load inside and out.

I took myself out to lunch...

Not much for me in the way of anything very positive. I worked late which did not bother me. It was only an hour.

Got pissed off trying to move the new step-ups ... they are for my larger dog. Anyway, these steps are very heavy (used 2x6 instead of 2x4's) and were hard to get into the back door and into the bedroom beside the bed. I bear-wrestled them to their new home, sweating and cussing all the way, knowing I should put them down and rest but I just couldn't ... guess I was in a "punish me" mode. I hate when I do that ... I always think later, "just how stupid are you?" Oh well, no harm done.

I ate half-priced nachos, drank half a beer, and bought a terrific painting...all in the same place.

I asked my boss if i could leave early tomorrw for a church event i want to go to and she said ok. Other than that nothin.

I made pancakes because I wanted them...

Put cinnamon in my coffee because it sounded good...and was...

Did yoga because I needed it mentally and physically...

Went for a walk in a light rain for the same reason...

I resisted buying a fountain pen

Does almost pulling your hair out but not doing it count for anything? gah.

Bro, sometimes pulling ones hair out can have advantages if it's for the right reason.

Today I checked into some information on coding, I have been thinking about doing this for a while.

I took myself out shopping and then for lunch....I'm an excellent date :)

Forced a break in a very busy day to exercise and eat a bowl of fruit.

The tractor developed an oil leak which would have cost me too much money and time to have it repaired by the tractor company. I called a fellow farmer, he had some parts, we worked together to resolve the oil leak. I love it when issues work out in a positive way.

I really islike give big business my hard earned money.

Dinner and wine for him and his wife in the very near future!

Made a phone call, we'll see what happens

I took the day off. I barely slept cuz of the new dog shenanigans...

And I did some retail therapy at the thrift store...
