Moan day

I stopped and shopped again on the way home from my Mom’s. Don’t know why, but I have this urge to spend money! Most of the things I bought were small and needed items. But I also bought a new shower curtain. It’s a Joe Boxer one to replace the once beautiful Martha Stewart one that had ties instead of curtain rings. I really liked our old shower curtain but the rusty water did a number on the pale yellow, so it’s not nice looking any more. The new one is dark blue and I’m hoping the water stains won’t show. I also bought a new, matching bath towel. It may seem weird to buy only one, but my old towels still match, so I refrained from going too crazy at buying things. That particular line was 20% off so I did save money. Maybe I should have gotten a rug, some face clothes and more bath towels! No, actually it’s a good thing I didn’t. Payday is still a week away and there are bills to pay coming up this week.

It’s going to be a crazy day at work. One of the registration deadlines is coming up and I had been getting non-stop phone calls and E-mails asking questions last week already. It does make the day go by fast. We also have a staff meeting regarding the upcoming convention. I probably will have to discuss our trip (from hell!) and the meetings with registration and hotel staff. Good thing I got some of the bitterness and anger out last week! The meeting will be an interruption and an inconvenience in a busy day. Plus I will have to take notes and do the minutes afterwards. At least I’m coming off of a super duper great weekend! Hope yours was good, too.
