Lazy but also, not.

What can I say about this week? If I had to be honest, I’m starting to feel a little guilty about being so lazy and I’m not even really being lazy.  I’m taking care of an endless array of responsibilities at the house and ticking items off of my list every single day but I’m not remodeling the house and that’s kind of nagging at me.  Still, I’m not going to start again until after Presidents Day.  That’s what I said I’d do and I’m sticking to it, not matter how irresponsible I feel about it.

In a way, I think this is good.  It’s making me miss what had definitely become a chore when I was trying to get it done while Rodeo was going on.  I think that when I start again, next week, I will have a new sense of purpose about it and a stronger resolve to get it done.

Of course, I still need to do our taxes and I intend to start on that this weekend.  I’m somewhat worried because so many people are owing this year but Dana said she did a quick down and dirty and it looks like we have a refund.  I’ll take her word for it and try not to lose any sleep.

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day so today at lunch I need to pick up some flowers for the girls.  I’m not getting any big gifts because Dana said that she’s trying to save money and pay down bills.  Her birthday is this weekend and for that, I’m getting her a gift.  Hopefully she will like it.  If she doesn’t I suppose I can send it back.

Tonight I intend to continue to help the kiddo get caught up with school. All of the performances and the auditions pushed her a little behind and she’s struggling.  I’m also struggling to find the time to help her study but hopefully tonight will be clear and we can focus on her work.  I wanted to tackle it last night but they were late getting in due to a physical therapy appointment and the kiddo was hurting from a dentist appointment earlier in the day.  

I’m not really losing any weight but I’m not gaining either which is a good thing.  I put on about a pound after my drastic six pound loss from being sick and that’s it.  This weekend is a three-day weekend so hopefully I’ll be able to keep the weight off even with Dana’s birthday celebration and the down time.  Who knows, maybe I’ll even lose some more.
