So, I was still seething over the Death Stare, which is pretty stupid in and of itself. And, it is totally out of whack with my 2009 Zen Goddess persona that I am attempting to attain, so I am "letting go" of the anger, and moving on....Bye Bye McSnorker.
I was, and this will sound mean and selfish but it's true, so glad to head off to the library/Barnes and Noble today after an extemely boring day at work and have ZERO interference. No little gal (she is with Daddy), no BF (he is at pool league) and no cell (left it in vehicle). Awesome. This little adventure took my stress level down about 33 degrees (haven't exactly developed a degree SCALE per se, but I assure you that 33 is a bunch) and frankly, there is nothing better than getting what you need from the library and rewarding yourself with some retail therapy. I highly recommend a quiet trip to the local bookseller for a stress buster now and again. I can't do this too often, as I am likely to buy too many fashion mags, books I intend to give as gifts then keep, and self help publications that don't really help. One can go broke doing this, so I try to keep it to a minimum. Broke is not part of my 2009 Zen Plan either, you feel me?
My tip of the day is obviously the trip to the bookstore, but I also think that as much as I LOVE LOVE LOVE retail, wherever it might be, sometimes it's just the quiet we all need as mommies. That amazing silence that makes you miss the noise but feel grateful for the lack of it at the same time, you know? Ick, this is starting to sound very "end of Jerry Springer Show" So be nice to you neighbors and all that.......
