Sunny day

Lots of sunshine today and I made sure I got myself out in it. Went to church this morning as an after thought. Normally, I plan to go, I always plan to go, but this morning the alarm went off just as I was relaxing enough to go back to sleep, that I almost didn't go. Then the thought went through my mind about what the service was about and I decided to get up and go. Only had an hour to get myself and the boys ready, but we went. Guess that was God telling me I needed to go this morning.

This weekend I've been so angry most of the time and even I don't' know why I'm feeling that way. Just am. Figured church would make me feel better. Now I'm kind of in the mood where I just want to be left alone to do my own thing. Guess my mood will get better in the days to come. Came home and went outside and worked on planting some of the flower bulbs I have to get in the ground. It's a nice day except at my house it's sssooooo windy. Got quite a bit planted though. Had to stop because my friend came over and then it was time to come inside and get cleaned up so I could get dinner started. We were out in my herb garden and she discovered I have mint coming back. Told her I was glad she saw that because I would have never noticed it and dug it all up. Had the oldest outside working on the garden. My chives are coming back up so I shoveled a spot around them so he wouldn't dig them all up. They belong in the herb garden, but hubby didn't understand, I guess, and planted them in the veggie garden instead.

Tomorrow I have off again because my lady forgot about me and scheduled a doc apt during my time there and I have an eye apt tomorrow afternoon. Usually when she forgets me I reschedule myself for the next day, which I did, but I forgot that I have an apt at the mechanics for the car. I got pulled over the beginning of the week for my muffler being "a little loud." He takes my info and questions me about my address on the info. Still the same. He asks me like 3 times. Then he asks me if my horn works. Huh?? Told him yes and he wanted to hear it. Ok. Then he hands me my info back and tells me to get it fixed and leaves. No ticket, which is great, but why stop me if you aren't' going to check my info? My friend told me she thinks he was harassing me and really didn't have a reason to pull me over because my exhaust probably isn't all that loud. When I went to the mechanics shop and told them, they looked at me like I had ten heads. Said it's rare for that to happen. Well, not this time. The thing that really irritated me was the cop just hung back behind me and the all the other cars for a few miles before he decided to pull me over. So, after telling hubby 2 days later he takes the car to "his" shop and the guy says part of the muffler needs to be replaced and to bring it back the next day after they order the part. We go back the next day and he says it's something different and he didn't order the part because it was to expensive and gave him a number to call for a used one. I call the number for a used one and they guy tells me it's illegal to sell this particular part used. Told him I was sitting in the mechanics parking lot calling him after being told, by the mechanic, to do this. So, down the road to a different mechanic. We'll see what he comes up with.

Finally got our taxes done and filed. There's been a change and hubby was so angry when he saw what we're getting back. Me, I'm just glad we don't' have to pay. He's angry because he told his family he would send them part of the tax money after we file. He can't do that now. He better not do that now. They are already calling and wanting to know when the money's coming. It's not.

Took hubby's cousins wife shopping for curtains yesterday. I couldn't seem to get hubby to understand that the curtains where we went didn't come in the exact size she needed and she had to cut and re hem them. Well, I have to cut and re hem them. She won't hang them, she won't cut them and she won't hem them. My thought was then why do you even want them?? We were out all afternoon and I was exhausted. It was one of those marathon shopping days again. I bought a little bit of food but didn't do my regular food shopping. I'll go maybe tomorrow after my eye doc apt since I'll be in the area and I have to stop in the office and do some paperwork.

Dinners done. I' m so hungry I didn't eat lunch because I was still full from breakfast when I got home. But, when I skip lunch I get so hungry early so early dinner and early night. Maybe even early to bed, since sleep wasn't good last night. Such weird dreams and then to make matters worse I woke up around 2 am and couldn't get back to sleep until 6 am when the alarm went off. Need to catch up on my lost sleep from last night. Maybe that's why I'm in such a "mood."
