Fridays are not that fun anymore...

It is Friday!! I think that now that I am not working I really don’t like Fridays that much. It is ok because my husband is off and we can do stuff together but weekends have no structure and I don’t like that. At least I know what I have to do during the week.
Today was cold in the morning and it rained but I didn’t want to break my list of things to do so I went for a short walk with the dog.
I was going to the library to keep with my job search/soul searching plan but my brother in law suggested to go for lunch and pay a visit to Macy’s. Since I had this gift card since December and wanted to spend some time with him anyway, I gave in and went.
It was ok, I am happy to report that I am proud owner of a new pair of black sandals. They were 50% off so I just paid $20 for them, they were $90 originally. I really didn’t need them but wanted to buy a new pair of shoes for the Spring/Summer. They are not flat so they can be dressy and I liked them so I guess that is what matters.
Didn’t buy anything else, I am happy to report that I haven’t felt the urgency to buy something for the heck of buying that is good progress I think.
Then came home and tried to take a nap but ended up reading my Glamour magazine, it has so many ads now that is hard to find the content, anyway I couldn’t sleep so got up and was checking emails and trying to figure out the job descriptions for this new list of jobs that are supposed to be good for me.
Some of them are out of my reach, didn’t go to school to do that so they demand me to start from 0 and I don’t have that time anymore. So I guess that I need to find something that I can do with my already many degrees and then if I need to go back to school that is fine but not for a whole new career I hope!
Anyway, I guess it wasn’t a very productive day but it was ok, at least I kept the morning going with the walk and the dog is happy with me.
The weekend looks good from here, if the weather improves it should be very good actually.
I am working on acceptance these days. Acceptance and gratitude. Accept the cards that I have to play with and gratitude for everything I have received.

It is hard to write over the weekends so see you next Monday!!
