Was it a good day, a bad day or indifferent?

I had a pretty good day. I headed down to the treadmill and had about 15 minutes on when I was interrupted when oldest DD called. She had wanted to know if I had spoken to younger DD about the issues at work. I was going to finish up on the treadmill but we started talking and I sort of lost of motivation after that. I did end speaking to younger DD about everything that had happened and she's really shaken up and very sad about the whole thing. She ended up crying and had me on the verge but trying to keep it together so I wouldn't end up upsetting her more. After everything was said and done she got an email from the same person telling her what a valued and hard working employee she is...hello? Anyway, we spoke for quite awhile and I know she's dwelling on this and she wished that she had never tried to change positions since this is what created the whole monster in the first place. We ended up on a cheerier note by talking about the plans they have for the house and where she's going to put furniture, and paint colors and outside things she wants to do so I think I left her in a little bit of a better frame of mind.

I did end up going shopping. I got a great deal on work shoes and a pair of boots. I've been looking forever for a tall pair of boots to go with a pair of gaucho pants I bought a long time ago. The boots are great, however the gaucho pants don't fit quite as well as they used to. I ran to Trader Joes and noticed that Ann Taylor Loft was having a 40% sale on sale items. I picked up a few things but of course after coming home and trying them on again I'm second guessing myself on just about everything. I'm not going to return anything until DD comes by and gives me an opinion. I've come to the conclusion I'm incapable of shopping for myself, by myself.

By the time I got off the phone with DD it was already after 1 and it was a pick up the big chunks kind of cleaning day around here. Otto and I headed out for a late afternoon walk. It was really a nice day here on LI. I got home and made some turkey chili from a WW recipe I found. I was such in the mood for it and I made a Beer-Cheese bread that I found in Cooking Light that was really good.

Organizing menus for next week with some dial flipping on the TV filled up most of the evening and I will soon be heading to bed. Pleasant dreams everyone!
