Finally, Just a Really Good Day

Nothing really special happened, it was just a good, even keeled day. A day when nothing bad happened, the weather was completely perfect and everything was just, well, fine. And, I am learning that fine is ok. Fine is good in fact. Not everything nor every day needs to be tweaked or improved. Some days, nothing much is really a good thing.

I got a lot of running around done today. I joined Costco and saved our family and company some money. All three boys made it to school. Lately, getting Logan to go to school has been a bit of a struggle. It seems that in college, they don't really give a shit if you show up. Just as long as you give them your money and can pass the tests, you're good to go. But I think Logan needs the structure of going every single time class is in session not to mention the social aspect. So, we battle about attendance. However, on this fine day, we did not have to battle what so ever, he just went happily off.

Thanks to my good housekeeping fairy, today my house is clean and all of my laundry is done. And that is always a very fine thing.

And this weekend Larry and I bought bicycles! And not with motors or any bells or whistles, just pain ole bikes. I think I love the exercise that the bike affords a bit more than Larry; he's more of a weight lifting kind of guy but man, the first time I took off down the street, I felt like I was flying. The wicked witch song from The Wizard of Oz DID begin in my head and I think I sang it for a minute (you know the one right?) but then I just rode up and down the street getting used to the feel of my new bike. And I loved it. I also found out that exercise can be fun and a major stress reducer. Since I've been riding it I've noticed that I'm not as anxious as I had been. I also stopped taking my Wellbutrin. Which I think I might have been over medicated with. I feel way better off of it than on. I do have to give it props for helping me quit smoking though.

After dinner, we're off to ride our bikes in our old neighborhood where they actually have streets and lakes and such. It does get a little monotonous just riding up and down our cul de sac.

Next week I'm participating in the Relay for Life with some ladies from Braden's school. This exercise thing? The part where I actually WANT to do it? Is just plain fucking weird for me but actually, it's pretty damn fine too.
