I was (am) still feeling down in the dumps about Valentine’s Day, and I had to keep an eye on work all weekend, and overall I really just wasn’t feeling awesome emotionally.
But the challenge of these posts is trying to think of things I did that I’m proud of, even when I’m feeling blue. Particularly when I’m feeling blue.
So, here goes.
I did laundry, including folding all of it and putting it away.
I did all my chores, so I’m starting the work week with a nice and clean home.
I finished the second book in the Crazy Rich Asians trilogy and started the third.
I played with makeup a bit and have a slightly different look for spring that I’m happy with. It’s a little lighter and more natural looking. (Blush underneath foundation, yo. Just try it. Trust me.)
On Friday I got my first paycheck with my new pay amount, after getting the sizable raise I asked for last fall. I put together a new budget this weekend and will be able to put a lot more into savings every month now. My many years of living paycheck-to-paycheck seem to finally be coming to an end.
I also got my taxes done and sent in.
So, there’s a fair bit I accomplished this weekend, I guess. I wish I cared about it more.
I don’t feel a glow of pride. I just feel… poopy.
February sucks.
