breather

Sittin' on the couch. Drinking some wine. 

Took a break from reading a book that made me have dreams that I murdered a friend last night. Very disturbing. The book isn't that graphic, but damn my subconscious grabbed ahold and ran with it.

We picked up sushi at the grocery store for a very low-maintenance dinner. I forget how surprisingly good it is. Managed to spend almost $300 on groceries and we are leaving for vacation in 4 days. Mom had a dream that said to stock up on food, so now we have lots of beans. Plus meat was on sale so we bought extra, and we bought the biggest damn package of paper towels. Our grocery bill has been ridiculous. Things add up quickly.

This week is mellow. I made a bunch of appointments (tb test, dermatologist, car window tint, dog grooming) and plan to cross a bunch of things (like get my crappy car washed) off my to-do list.

Been paying attention to what I'm eating and recording it in an app. Turns out, I don't get nearly enough protein, potassium, calcium, or iron. Kind of important things. Going to try and get a better balance.

Also we're going to get a gym membership. Bit of a story behind that, but the bottom line is I want to get stronger and FG wants to get fitter and if we're shelling out money, we might actually be motivated to do it. My history with gym memberships is inconsistent at best, so I'm not super optimistic, but I -am- feeling slightly more motivated than I have in a long time.

Overall, life is chill right now. Kind of settled into a groove and it hasn't gotten mundane yet. I'm appreciating the breather because you know how things go.
