Rainy Saturday

I'll take it.  I have house chores to do and a rainy day works.

My mood is no less cranky, sad and horrible ... but I soldier on (*dramatic pause*).

Movie yesterday (The Hustle) was mildly entertaining.  I expected HORRIBLE so it was a pleasant surprise.  My girlfriend enjoys crappy comedies (no offense to her) and I had the bar low.  But, still, let me complain a moment.  We went to a different theater than we usually frequent with the old, regular seats and all the annoyances that comes with it (how I forgot).  Guess I'm super fancy now and want the recliners with SPACE around me.  People passing through the aisle, talking, phone screens ... the usual stuff.  The fancy theater is the same price -- she picked this one because it was closer for me (good friend).  We both decided FANCY for the win FOREVER!!  Also, quick movie but 35 minutes of previews and commercials.  Way, way too much.  I used to love the previews, but now it drags on so long you need a bathroom run 5 minutes into the movie.

We sagged on the neighborhood monthly party (Friday Fun).  My stomach got all messed up in the evening and I needed to be near MY bathroom.  I was bummed about it, but it was necessary.

Hubby did me a solid and funneled 150 lbs of sand into my boxing set-up.  Might need another 50 lbs, but I don't hit hard so I'll try it today.  He's a keeper and a good guy (even though I complain about space -- that's not specific to him, it's ME).

Why is it always such a small fill hole?
Bag height is adjustable.
It's on the highest setting here.

Today's goals, intentions, whatever is to PROBLEM-SOLVE all my mood crap.

One issue contributing is I HURT -- all over.  I mentioned it to hubby and he's having that problem too.  We think it's our sleeping situation.  That's going to get fixed this week.  Pottery Barn or we are headed to a mattress store.  I thought it was all the lifting, etc (which was a big part), but the general soreness in the morning is the bed (or lack of one).

I'm also kicking dairy to the curb.  I know gluten makes me hurt, but dairy is also problematic.  I've been very free with cheese.  Let's see if that helps.

I'm actually toying with a Whole30.  I feel yucky .... physically, mentally.  Maybe a reset is a good idea.  I can't start until Monday because Mother's Day and kids are having us over after brunch for morning drinks (it's sweet of them).  Stay tuned.  The more I think about it, the more I think I need it.

Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day (in case I don't post tomorrow).  It's a day to celebrate being a woman -- because all women mother in some way.  Later gators.
