Another day, another softball tournament.
Tomorrow is Halloween. One of my favorite holidays. Today, we’re at day 2 of the softball tournament. Honestly, I don’t mind. For starters, as I said yesterday, I love watching my kiddo play. Second, there’s a Michael’s right by the field, and I need some more paint pens. Lastly, I was supposed to go to the Merciful Fate concert tonight with the boyfriend, but I’m concert-ed out. I’ve been to 5 concerts - including one all day festival - in two months. My social tank is on E. So now, the boyfriend is going with his buddy. Silver lining.
I have not showered, no put on make-up all weekend. I was planning on a shower this morning, but when I woke up again at the butt crack of dawn, I decided it wasn’t worth it and just put a hat on.
Tomorrow, I have to be a hippie for work and help out with festivities. Even though it’s my normal hybrid day. It’s fine, I’ll just work from home on Friday. I might need to, because my daughter was asked after the tournament if she could guest next weekend… and this tournament is an almost two hour drive.
When we got home, I was productive. I’ve been selling a bunch of old stuff on eBay, and I was able to get everything ready for shipping tomorrow. I’m really starting to think it’s more trouble than it’s worth. I’m about ready to just pull everything that hasn’t sold and donate it. After getting the house clean, making the boyfriend’s weekly muffins - yes, that’s a real thing I do, because if I don’t he won’t eat - and getting my stuff ready for tomorrow, I had enough time for a simple paint pour.
I think Halloween was on my mind… actually, I know it was. “This is Halloween” from Nightmare Before Christmas has been stuck in my head. When it came time for colors, I went for a Halloween feel. This was quick and basic, but I really love how it turned out.
Now I better get to bed so I can wake up in time to take a shower. I may be dressing as a hippie, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to be a dirty one.
