Guess who's coming to dinner?

1. For the past two nights Connor has come with me to the garden and thrown all the snails over the fence. Snails are super gross. 
2. We had a "guess who's coming to dinner" activity with our ward, one couple hosted, one couple brought a main dish, one couple brought a side and one couple brought dessert. It worked out so well and we had a blast talking with everyone. We're definitely still adjusting to our ward, but the people are marvelous! 
3. I got to pick up Maia from the airport! Her short hair is so cute and she brought us back English chocolate!! (Totally worth the stomach ache)

Errands and Ally loving

1. We totally tackled our to do list today and came out victorious. Not totally completed, but made excellent progress and our house looks a little more put together now. 
2. I got lots of free work shirts from my sister, yay! 
3. I got to sleep in again today. That's a good thing for me right now. I don't always feel good about it, but these last two Saturday's it's been immensely helpful.

Cars man, cars.

1. Car shopping is the absolute worst and I have no idea how people do it and still afford to eat. On the good note, we started looking up outrageously expensive cars for fun when we kinda gave up for the day 
2. We saw Wonder Woman tonight and LOVED it! 
3. We ran into one of my retired coworkers after the movie and had a nice time catching up. I work with excellent people

Better ish

1. I went to the therapist today and it was GREAT! 
2. I went to a relief society activity even though I didn't want to and it turned out to be my favorite thing of the day 
3. I called Andrea to ask a simple question and ended up chatting for almost 50 minutes.

Bro

I don't really have three good things today. The anxiety and stress was a little too much to handle. 
Three okay things
1. Even though our car is messed up beyond reasonable repair, I still drove it home and it's resting in the driveway 
2. I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow 
3. I went to a store opening and it was fun to be around all that energy.

Anxiety

I am in the state of "I just can't." today. I got the call that our car is going to be upwards of $3000 to fix. So we're not going to do that, we're just going to buy a new one. What a mess. Right after work we're going over to help Ally move all of the things from the apartment that Scott has been living in since they're not together anymore and she needs it taken care of so she can move on. What a mess. I'm majorly behind at work on things that I don't know how to resolve. So instead I focus on things I know how to do and I just keep getting more and more behind on those. All the while every time I tell my boss I am overwhelmed she says it's understandable. Which is great that she's so on my side, but I need help or more hours in the week. 40 is so not enough for all the things on my plate. What a mess. I would like to go home and lie down for about 4 months. But then I'd probably get a pulmonary embolism and die.. so that would be bad. What a mess.
