At any rate, I don&#8217;t feel so good this week, things feel more behind than usual because Frank was here for so long without any trips due to his contract being let go suddendly when he didn&#8217;t have any others at the time, and then now he&#8217;s been gone this week since he picked up another one.<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t really have extra money lying around, so it&#8217;s been super tight, missing one paycheck, but OK as long as &#8230; but that&#8217;s not the case now. I don&#8217;t have anything to wear on Saturday. My daughter needs new shoes to wear with her one decent enough dress to wear on Saturday. My 9-year old son needs something, no doubt, just what I&#8217;m not sure. My 2-year old son needs shoes to wear with the linen outfit my 9-year old wore for Easter in 2002, if it fits my 2-year old, which I don&#8217;t know yet, since it was dirty from cats sitting on it &#038; now it&#8217;s wet &#8230; so maybe he does need shoes for it, or not. If not he needs new shoes &#038; a new outfit.<\/p>\n<p>My husband &#038; 13-year old son have things to get by with.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m just frustrated with moving things around here as well, lately, and the mess that uncovers and makes everything else worse. I don&#8217;t have the energy to deal with much of it, and I have to get some other things washed and found earlier too that the baby seems to have gone into the laundry room and stopped the load I had going. That&#8217;s the most frustrating thing about a front loading washer I must say.<\/p>\n<p>I need to color my hair, for the first time in ages and ages. My hair color is difficult to deal with, and gray\/white is coming in more and more here and there, and it&#8217;s not nice on me. So I want to go more ash colored not darker, but a tad lighter. Problem is my reddish hair, a lot isn&#8217;t red, but light brownish, and others are slightly reddish and others are metallic red. I have a color kit to try and I&#8217;ve chickened out every time I&#8217;ve tried to make myself do it. Now it&#8217;s Thursday before the wedding and I have to wash my hair and dry it before I can do the coloring and I have to go to the airport in less than 3 hours and so it won&#8217;t get done today. Oh no! I&#8217;m in trouble.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be seeing at least 2 of my 3 sisters and some Aunt\/Uncle\/Cousins maybe too. It&#8217;s not that I have to travel far, not in trouble for that reason. It&#8217;s only a couple of hours away that we need to go, so we don&#8217;t have to get a hotel or anything and do this all in a strange place. I just like prepreparation way ahead and I am totally behind because of lack of energy and just as much, lack of money these past few weeks. Frustrating to no end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a wedding to go to on Saturday, one of my nephews who I haven&#8217;t seen since he was 2, I think that&#8217;s how long it is, maybe another time, but mostly it&#8217;s just through pictures I know him.
