Daily Post 0091: Challenge Accepted – Grocery Shopping

Standard

I didn’t write last night, though I suppose I could have. I  wasn’t all that tired. But scarlet was next to me, and the bed was warm, and it seemed like an awful lot of energy to get out of bed just to  get back in it…

I woke up a little after Jeremy. I heard him moving around in the house, which in a way was comforting. It reminded me of when I lived at home with my mom and brothers. They would always be up before me, trying to be quiet in the kitchen, but I’m normally a super light sleeper, so it didn’t really matter how quiet they were. If they were up I would be shortly, too.

I stayed in bed for a while, petting Scarlet and assessing my energy levels. I was  still super tired. I figured that was from aikido and packing up my car the night before. I didn’t have creamer for coffee, so I knew that was going to be a bust, but I could still have breakfast.

So eventually I got up and went to the kitchen. Jeremy had put some of my stuff away, so I had a hard time finding things, but he showed me where everything was. I even have a shelf in the kitchen now, so I feel a little more at home. Not fully since I still don’t have a spot for my pots and skillets, but closer.

I cooked breakfast and ate. Jeremy and I were supposed to go to  Goodwill to drop stuff off, but neither of us really felt the motivation to do that yesterday, so we agreed to try on a different day. Most likely during the weekend since I work evenings this month.  Basically I’ll be leaving when he is getting home.

Ashely is taking online classes this month so I guess she’s always at the house, but that’s fine.

Lets see… After breakfast and rearranging plans I unpacked my car before I lost all motivation to do it. Seriously I’m surprised I didn’t sleep the whole day with how tired I was. I got everything inside the house, got the computer into the room though not set up and then just sat for a while, regrouping.

Those totes full of books sucked… They’re the heaviest boxes out of all of my stuff.

Eventually I got up and brought one box of books into the room and unpacked it, then got the second one. So my bookshelves are completely back to normal. Even my sketch books are on the shelves. My room, at least, feels like home now.

I took a nap after that. I think it was only for a few hours. It was much needed, though. After I woke up I went about setting up my computer. So currently I’m writing this entry on my desktop. I think it’s the first post  I’ll be making from here. I wonder if it should feel more significant than it does.

I still am not 100% set up. I still need to hang my posters and corkboard. I need to get a little shelf for my keys and wallet, maybe even one for near my desk so I can have a place for my jar of pens and such without losing desk space…

I wouldn’t get those until next payday though. So for now I’m just going to focus on  getting comfy and settled.

I got CrapDonalds for dinner last night since I never made it out to grocery shop. That’s actually what I’m getting ready to do. Writing a blog entry is totally not a way to procrastinate, I promise…

I started a load of laundry last night, so that’s in the dryer right now. It should be done by the time I get back with coffee creamer. I haven’t figured out what I want to cook yet. So I suppose that would be the first, first step. Figuring out what I want so I know what to buy…

This would be so much easier with caffeine. ;-;

Not much else is going on.  I have work at 1pm. Getitng to the gym before that would be nice.

I got in touch with Ray, or rather he emailed Tre and I asking if Tina had paid us yet. I told him about how Tina hasn’t been  responding to either Tre or I and how we were both getting concerned. Ray actually apologized for getting us involved with Tina. I guess she’s turning out to be a real piece of work.

Tre and I are supposed to be sending our invoices to Ray directly. He said he would get it straightened out and wouldn’t do any animation until both Tre and I were paid. Yay for having awesome freelance people.

Ray actually has a another project, with different people, that he offered to Tre and I. I think we’re both going to jump on it. We don’t have any issues with Ray. In fact, he’s pretty awesome and I think is a great contact to have. I’m going to be emailing him at some point today, most likely when I get back from the store to procrastinate on cooking…

Speaking of… I should go take care of that so I have food to eat today. Not having meals made sucks, as last night proved.

Off and away I go, back to normal life.
