A Little Dinner and Shopping

Michael and I usually go out to eat on Fridays and more often than not it's Mexican. So today what am I craving? You got it, chips and salsa. I don't know if I just really wanted it or my body knew that it was Friday or what, but I decided to go out to eat. Yep, just me. This is something I don't think I've ever done. I geared up with a good book I'm currently reading (Handle with Care) and went to town. It wasn't too bad. I munched away on chips and read my book and except for the lack of conversation, it went okay. While I much prefer to dine with people (and it made me miss Michael because that's where we go/what we do on Fridays), I think this is something I might have to get used to doing this next year, especially when I want certain foods and nothing else will work. So now that the first solo venture out to a restaurant is under my belt, I feel like I can do it again.

Afterwards I decided to walk it off at Target. I wanted to look for some undies for Lucas. Jaime is still working on the potty training with him. I was looking for those underwear that feel like underwear but they're lined with plastic/rubber, or even the little plastic ones that go over the cotton underwear. No luck. Do they even make them anymore? I lingered in the baby aisles for awhile, trying to picture what it was going to be like to have the baby. I shouldn't go in the baby section. It makes me SO anxious for to meet this little baby. I did venture over to the maternity section and picked up a pair of comfy shorts. My goodness maternity clothes are expensive. I am going to go up to the outlet mall and see what they have there too. Although I don't need a whole lot, since I have clothes that were lent to me, but I just want a couple pieces of my own (and one super duper cute outfit for when I go up and see Michael at the end of the month).

It felt nice to get out and do a little. I started my annual training this week and so I'm getting used to waking up early again. I've been pretty tired each evening when I come home and so I take a little nap and don't do much around here. Yesterday I had a bad headache and so I laid down for a couple hours after work and even went to bed early. So today it feels good to feel good.
