Apparently my last post was my 100th... I should have made more of a hoopla about it! I just wasn't paying attention... :)
Anyway, this post is actually about how different this day is now than it was 5 hours ago!
This day started off lazy and slackerish. Because of the snow last night, Rachael and I waited to decide if we would go to church til this morning. I woke up when I would have to if we did, and saw that the roads were clear and that most of the snow had been washed away. I went back to bed. I was really really sleepy. A little later I texted Rachael and asked her if she wanted to go. She didn't particularly feel like it. That was all the encouragement I needed to go back to sleep.
I woke up at 2:30 pm. I was really thirsty, and I had clearly slept too much. I HATE that feeling. I regretted sleeping in immediately. Only three episodes away from finishing my current season of Smallville (a show I was watching a lot last quarter and just started watching again). I got breakfast and laid in bed and finish the season. It was a fun afternoon. It was a comfortable afternoon. It was a lazy afternoon.
As all of you guys have probably noticed, I am not the biggest fan of being lazy, largely because I am too often. At this point it was 5 pm, and I had done nothing. Even though I showered yesterday, I felt gross. I've noticed that this happens when I feel too lazy.
I hopped into the shower. Though I had wanted to go shopping this afternoon, it was starting to get dark. I was excited because I was going to make soup tonight. Though I've started to experiment with some foods, normally I save the time consuming deals for when I am cooking with someone else.
Once I got out of the shower, I was determined. I would change today from a lazy, gross day, into a good, productive day! I went to the store even though it was getting dark, and I bought all the food I needed for the next week a least. I even looked up a recipe online just to make sure there wasn't anything I should add to my soup (I wanted to follow my own recipe and not someone elses!). I got inspiration to add onion, a certain type of canned tomatoes and potatoes.
I got home from the store and started chopping up all my vegetables. I talked on the phone with Laura for over 30 minutes, something I haven't done in the while. Once I got all the veggies on the stove stewing away, I got laundry started. Then, I brought out all the dishes from my room and got the washer started. Just a few minutes ago, the timer said my soup should be ready for consumption. The veggies are a good texture, as are the noodles... I am excited!!!
So I figured I would just come on here and say that today I am giving myself a gold star for turning my day around! I have a LOT of lunches ready (saving money!), good cleaning going, and a delicious dinner made! So now I'm going to go eat, continue my cleaning and watch a movie on netflix.
Seems like a good Sunday to me! :)
(Besides the fact that I still skipped church and wasn't social.... :P)
