Serenity Now!

Two super restful empty days turned into bingey-pants party time.  Saturday there was a quiet breakfast in bed followed by a string of family visits capped with a Dexter marathon that gave me nightmares.  Today I had another uneventful day that started with coffee and muffins in bed, followed by a class, a hospital visit, a birthday dinner and an episode of Downtown Abbey that was so upsetting that I had to have some ice cream even though I had already eaten two pieces of birthday cake.  I am planning another quiet day tomorrow, so I'll probably do seven things and take up jello shots and mud wrestling.

Note to self.
If you want to be frugal and thoughtful about what you eat, stay away from Dave and Buster's, Dexter, and Downtown Abbey.  All seem to lead to consumption of fried food and ice cream.

In the Saturday food list, you will notice that I ate lunch at least twice, and for some reason, insisted on the purchase of high quality peppermint bon-bon ice cream for a milkshake.

I am noticing a trend toward spending more, which is disturbing.  More parties and going out.  Yow, it sure costs more to go out that to stay home.  We were invited to Psycho Suzi's tonight, but declined.  Those sweet kids can party just fine without us.  It would have been more relaxing than tonight's episode of Downton Abbey though.  Holy cow.  My heart's still beating fast.
