Weekly Check-In

Hello dear readers, all two of you out there! ;)

The past couple of weeks have been rather mundane, for the most part. I finished paper journal #63 and began #64 on Sept. 2, and have already written 135~ pages. It's a journal made by paperchase which I purchased at Borders earlier this year. It has rather wide lines and I write rather big. The book is about 5x7 so it probably won't take too long to fill. I also have new goals in filling it--instead of bookmarking my current place with the attached ribbon, I bookmark the page I want to get to by the end of the week. It helps to maintain a good writing pace.

I have also been reviewing some of my old journals this week, rereading what my feelings were on 9/11. I had forgotten so much about myself from that time. It was heart-wrenching to read some of the entries. I had so much self-hatred, even then. (For some reason, I thought it was a recent phenomenon!)

DH & I went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse last weekend. I had a southwest chicken sandwich and he had ribs and a ribeye combo. It was delicious, as always. DD was spending the night with my parents, so it was nice to have some one-on-one couple time for a change.

This weekend, DD & I are attending a wedding in Evansville, IN. My cousin (the groom) is getting married. We will be riding with my mom and sister, so it should be a fairly relaxing weekend, visiting with relatives. But I'm sure the traveling will wear me out anyway.

The Emotional Express reared its ugly head over the past weekend. I don't know if it was the weather, or hormones, or what, but I woke up feeling very crabby on Monday. Today is a lot better.
