Quiet Sunday

Today was quiet.  I unloaded the dishwasher and did laundry.  I went through my closet and packed up another bag of clothes that are too big.  I threw them in my car trunk to give to my Mother when next I am over at her place.

I stopped at Academy and got a good deal on ski socks and the wick dry under ski socks.  The hat, that they have that I like, is not on sale.  I don't think it will go on sale so I have given it up.  I went to Walmart and purchased a hat for a 1/4 of the price.  The last article of clothing I wanted was a ski mask, which I ordered online.

It looks like the grand total for my trip will be around $3500.  I'm hoping that the food doesn't cost as much as my totals allow for.  I also finished polishing a schedule.  Sadly, many things are only open from 10 to 4 and many museums are closed on Mondays.  That means I'm not going to get to do everything I wanted to.

I ordered my Capital One card, did some updating for my Citi card, and emailed my phone company to ask about rates when calling Canada.

The rest of the day I simply exercised or read.  I feel like I need some time to unwind before I go back to work, but I don't know exactly what to do to "unwind".  I think it is probably just the stress of the project I am working on.  It is going well, but that doesn't mean I'll breathe a sign of relief until it is done.

You  know, forcing yourself to be positive and NOT stressed, is surprisingly stressful.  It's a lot of effort and energy.
