We adulted so hard yesterday. Finally throwing off the last of my past life in some ways. It was a big move on my part even if B didn't realize how much of a change this was for me. What the heck am I talking about? Flatware. Yes, that kind of flatware. Forks, spoons, knives, etc. I have had this set of pineapple silverware forever. I bought it at the Hawaiian store in town when X2 and I moved down to the beach. I clung to that set for way too long. I knew I wanted it gone internally because I would keep bringing in other pieces from hotels and restaurants. Subconsciously I knew it had to go but couldn't quite pull the trigger. Until yesterday. We have a complete brand new set of WMF Nordic flatware. WMF is a great german brand that has been around for about 160 years. If I was going to do this, I wasn't going to replace it with some cheap ass Target set. I wanted the real deal. Open our drawer now and it looks good. It looks clean.

Besides the silverware we also replaced the lamp in the front room, a light fixture in the office, and rearranged the front room to make it look more put together. The light fixture in the office is incredible. See, this place had this stupid single spotlight fixture which was useless. I was running a cord from IKEA with a cheesy shade and was tired of looking at this cable dangling down the wall and not being able to use the switch. I got a five bulb ceiling fixture that is throwing off massive light. So happy. Yeah, it's dumb, but it also helped release some of my anxiety. Moving things and updating things always gives me the feeling of order and control which helped.

That filled the majority of our day. Around 4:30 B was craving a soft taco from Taco Bell. I went out to get her one and when I got back she had fallen asleep. I ended up eating the taco I got for myself and playing some video games. When she got up she had hers. We then decided we needed out of the house and went and grabbed some dessert from the store. When we got back we settled in to watch a movie. I picked HP and the Prisoner of Azkabhan. It's what I was in the mood for, deal with it. Of course I ended up falling asleep on the couch around 10:30. I am bad at movies at home.

Other thing that happened yesterday was while we were putting up the light fixture I had to switch off the electricity. When I turned it back on, it reset the fire alarms. Boy that was fun. The cats were so freaked out. Stupid hardwired fire alarms. I finally figured out to reset it with a little help from someone from the office.

We also heard our bitch ass neighbor talking about us to the person who lives behind her. If you're going to talk about someone, try not to do it under their open window dumbass.

Pretty good day overall. Mental state is at about a 7.  Feeling very put together, feeling pretty good about life in general. Our friend arrives tomorrow so today is a house cleaning kind of day. Not that things are messy, but we want it to look good for our guest. Other than that, I need to do my timesheet and laundry. Maybe we will go to the movies today and see Deadpool again.
