Day 2: Ramen Noodles for the Soul

Tuesday, January 2nd

I had band practice that evening.  But my husband had the day off, the second to last of his days off of his interrupted vacation.  We had done nothing fun although that was the point as he wanted to advance on construction, during his vacation and he got called back into work a couple times in between.  I am beginning to feel like he is being taken advantage of.  He did at least get to work on his two story structure he built on the property so there was use to his vacation time.

When I realized I wouldn't be able to wind down with him in the evening I suggested going out to lunch, my treat, because one of the things that came up was he feels taken advantage of, as though I just want him for money... I have a rant about that one but not yet...  So I took him to Ramen Girl, a new spot in Rancho San Diego.  We very much enjoyed it.



I went driving after taking him back home and in the evening met up with the band for rehearsal. We have a show coming up February and are preparing for it.  I was able to vent a little to my band mates at the risk of bringing everyone down but of course I tend to make jokes.  I have leaned on a few friends for support during this time.  My husband doesn't lean on anyone but I operate differently than him.

But I must say, I really find my time in music very healing and the guys at Finding THETIS are great!



The band went to the bar next door to have a band meeting.  It's difficult to have 5 people trying to decide on one thing, but ultimately we did make progress, or so I feel.  I had joined this bad to help, and here I am a part of it now. I do find joy in that.

I got home Tuesday night not knowing it was the last night I would get to snuggle my husband this year.  I didn't know that was the last time I would get to share our bed.  And the next morning was the last time I would wake up to him as he got up to go to work.

BFC Ink Doll Collection Complete!!

Well, if it isn't obvious, I got into doll collection, but I suppose I always was a doll collector, just not really by choice as my mom would buy me a porcelain doll every year for my birthday until I moved away for college, but even then I still got porcelain dolls as gifts from her and other members of my family. Over the years of course I have collected dolls from the 80's like the Kimberly doll by Tommy, and of course Barbie...  then I got into repainting Bratz dolls the past couple of years and added Monster High to the list of dolls to look for at flea markets etc... But one day, by chance I came across the now out of production MGA Entertainment 18" BFC Ink (Best Friends Club Ink) dolls.  These dolls are way cuter, in my opinion, than American Girl Dolls (which I really do not like at all actually) or Journey Girls etc...  They have a hard body all the way and were made in two types.  The first productions were just all vinyl bodies, much like the Wellie W...

Day 18: Gotta get ready for the February Show with Finding THETIS

I have been getting up late.  This is getting out of hand... and I really need to go back to the Kaiser clinic to get my blood-work done.  I've lost the morning, but I can at least go out and earn money.  I get dressed, my butterfly print top, and khaki pants... I opt to wear my slipper boots... who do I have to impress?  This is not my best outfit.  I don't care. I get to work but it is already 1:30.  After a couple of rides I remember it is Thursday.  Wasn't I going to carpool with Bryce from Finding THETIS?  I send a text message. "We carpooling?" "I was just thinking about you" he replies.  We joke about food before hand and decide to grab pizza on the way to practice, thus we should meet up at 4.  Itis now about 2:30 and I become self aware to what I am wearing... yeah, no one cares, but suddenly I don't want to be this frumpy around my band.  I stop by Ross and buy some dressy pants, a dressier blue shirt, and some shoes, I ...
