Further Realizations

I never realized I could be this happy. I'm calm, not too stressed out. It's wonderful. Although I did have a small meltdown earlier today. And it reminded me why I hated working in computers. They do things with no meaning sometimes. Do computers have a purpose beyond a useful tool? Why have we become slaves to these things? Because we want to stay connected to the rest of the world and play games. I've noticed that I am spending more time away from my computer. I'm not on it for hours at a time anymore. I have things to do. Things that make me happy and provide for my family and their well-being. Cleaning the house, canning food or making stuff for the house.

I was able to get rid of a large stack of movies today. Took them to a place that buys them. I wanted to get cash for them, as I don't want to buy anything more. They offered me a respectable amount, but they would give me twice as much if I wanted in-store credit. Since I wanted to get rid of them, I agreed. Even though it annoyed me.

Then it was off to get my tire fixed. I love this place. Very nice guys, especially to a pretty woman with a smile, and very reasonable prices. They fixed it for free. Made me feel fantastic. I will definitely go there again.

For the life of me, I can't really remember doing much productive after I got home. I watched a movie, ate some watermelon with my son. Then watched a show with my husband while my son went out with his dad to a concert. It was very nice. But I do feel guilty for not doing all that much this evening. Tomorrow will be productive though. Have to get more green stuff to the landfill and get a truckload of compost to have tilled in for next year's garden. Really looking forward to that. The garden, not the landfill.

Now just waiting for my son to come home so he can go to bed. And so I can go to bed.
