Guess What?  I went shopping and I actually had fun!!!  I found out tonight that the stores are not crowded on Wednesday nights.   Since my daughter is out of town my husband and I went out to eat at a Mexican Restaurant and then we went to Walmart.  We went there to see if we could find a Wii and a Wii fit thing, they did not have either one.  So instead I bought some new clothes. I got a pair of black capris, a cute pair of jeans that turn into capris and two new shirts (one purple and one orange, my favorite colors).  I am excited about the jeans.  They actually fit and are not too long.  The problem I have with jeans is that with my fat rear end, often when I find jeans to fit that, the jeans are way too long.  These fit great.  I also got a new pair of cute black shoes that will go with my capris and my other pants.

Then we went to the grocery store.  I had fun there too.  For years before my depression started, I always did the grocery shopping by myself or with the kids, and they were smaller then.  It was a pain in the butt.  When my depression got bad and I could not leave the house my husband did all the grocery shopping.  Now we try and do it together and I realized tonight that I like it best that way.  We help each other and not one person is left to do all the shopping and has to put the groceries up themselves.  My husband unloads the groceries from the truck and I put them up.

I fully realize it is silly to get excited about shopping.  It has just been so long since I actually enjoyed it, that I am excited about it.  Also, finding a night when it is not crowded at the stores is exciting. Now I know when I want to go shopping Wednesday night is the time to go.

I know I have been in a down stage for the last week or so.  I am happy to be happy about something.

Be Happy, Neighbors!
