Yesterday was Dad's birthday and I had plans. PLANS. I was gonna go with Mums to her doctor's appointment and then we were gonna hit Kohl's and use her coupon. Maybe stop for lunch somewhere, come home, nap... do something nice for dinner, watch a movie or something.
I.
Did.
Nothing.
To be fair, my feet hurt from work and I fell asleep and so I didn't go to the doctor's. Which is just as well as Mums didn't come back for quite awhile after and I'd have been grumpy as hell. She did bring back lunch (as I told her she could if she wanted to get something) and then she napped and I did dishes that nearly killed me. Then she went out again to get the boy and I napped with the lights on because I figured she'd be home soon. Cut to 10:30PM... My plans, they didn't come to fruition. And because I napped with my glasses/lights on, as well as the weird weather, I now have part of a sinus headache. I mean, the weather's to blame but I'm going to pretend the others played some part in it as well.
Some years his birthday is really hard and this was one of those. I don't know why and I don't really feel like examining the possible reasons. Maybe there aren't any. Maybe some years are just going to hit you right in the feels and the only reason is because someone you love has been gone for a very long time at this point and you miss them.

That was from maybe...3am? I went to sleep and woke up late but I feel a lot better and less weepy, so perhaps I also just needed some sleep. In any case, today's been rainy and dreary but I started if off in a fairly petty way and I feel good about that. :P
( In case you wondered. )
My next mission was to try and work on my room which spiraled into a mess by the end of the year. I'm not really sure how well I did, but I do have a pile of things to recycle, some trash, and I did go through some makeup/samples and get rid of things. Some made me sad as I found a makeup bag I'd lost and it had one of my favorite glosses ever but time had marched on and it died. Woe. But I also found the end of one of my favorite perfumes so that's nice. Gonna make myself a late lunch and then work on collecting most of my nail polishes and seeing if I can sort through and figure out which ones to use in the coming weeks. Also, I really don't need nail polishes hanging out everywhere. :P I do need to repaint my right hand as this particular Essie seems to be sticking around on my left hand and I do like it so we'll reapply.
As for the use it up 2019 philosophy, I used up two of those foil packets of Garnier's Green Apple/Green Tea (I think) shampoo/conditioner that I know I like. Working on a Dove bodywash sample before I figure out which bodywash to work through next. I also finished two books, though I'm not really sure how to rate one. The other I really liked but I suspect that people who are super familiar with the series might feel otherwise. *shrug*
Oh, and after![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
eurohackie's post, I checked LT and found that I also won a book! Everything Grows, so it's even one that not!3am me thinks sounds interesting.
Time to fix some food and then sort some polish. Wish me luck.
