The day after hump day...

I wake up to a smiley 2 and a half year old each morning.
I give him our little kitten, Sawyer to play with to keep him entertained till his mommy gets up.
This is probably the greatest way to start each morning, somebody greeting you with a smile and just generally pleased to see you.
And then I realize he's off to his wonderous world of snacks, napping, playing and pudding.
I'm off to a job I have to be at, to pay the bills. Oh how nice it would be to be a carefree kid again.

Today I had:
-A demonic lady screaming at me because SHE lost part of HER jewellery I sold her, I'm sorry... but how is that MY problem?
-A black guy with his pants around his knees and over-sized DG sunglasses on (inside), asking for my number and giving me flack because I wouldn't give it to him. Needless to say his name was Avinish.
-A new friend bring me a great book I'm excited to read.
-Two people dear to me I unexpectadly bumped into, rather, they bumped into me. I've known both since birth, from Powell River. What a small world. Really.

All in all, work wasn't too un-bearable today.

When I got in my car to drive home, I had a urge to just keep driving. Not sure to where, I just wanted to drive. After being cooped up inside all day I just wanted to feel the wind on my face and the sun on my shoulders, man I just miss summer so much. So generally... what did I do then?
Went back into another mall?!
Smart Jenna, smart.
I can't even REMEMBER the last time I bought something for myself, clothing wise and the feeling of summer approaching just made me do exactly that.
Pretty pumped on getting 3 shirts, 1 sweater, and a dress for $39 bucks.
Next up? Bathingsuit shopping... but before that can commence, this diet needs to get kicked into high gear. But yet, I still slip up from time to time and my will-power seems to hold strong at the best of times.

I like my life. Generally. There seem to be more down's than up's at the moment. But... I'm trying to live day by day and take it all in stride. Or look at the bigger picture. It's supposed to go something like that right?

And as the morning started, tonight ended with a kiss on the cheek from a certain two and a half year old, saying "Goodnight Tenna"... It's times like those you see nothing wrong with your life and just hope to be as blissfully happy as a kid again.

That's all.
