I always look forward to my day off. I always dream about being able to sleep in and just lounge around the house. Then when the blessed day comes... I find myself to be really bored. I didn't get to sleep in this morning due to a Dr Appointment. Now the appointment is over, Mike has left for work... and I am alone. I use to go spend my days off with Linda... but now she is back at work. It was fun being able to get out and go to lunch with her. Alas I have no one to go to lunch with today.
I am sitting here trying to figure out what I want to do with myself. I could work on a puzzle... watch a movie... or even read my book. For some reason, none of those things sound really fun. I guess I am in more of a socializing mood today. I want to get out and have fun. The fact that I got paid today doesn't help much. Plus I can't go anywhere even If I wanted to because my car is broken. Maybe that is why I am going nuts with boredom, is because I know I can't go anywhere due to my car.
This weekend Mike plans on changing the head gaskets so hopefully that will fix it. We have been having issues with it overheating and have tried all the minor fixes but it doesn't stay fixed for long. We finally gave in and had to face the fact that my head gaskets are blown. So the next question... do we spend the time and money to have that fixed, or do I just get a new car? Or do we buy an engine out of a wrecked car and just put a new engine in it. I don't want to get a new car because I don't want the car payment that comes along with it. I was looking on KSL at cars but nothing is looking that good. My car is in really decent shape. The interior is in great condition and the exterior is not too bad considering the car is 14 yrs old. So we decided to just fix the head gaskets. It is not worth it to me to get a new car.
Anyways... I am going to go call my mom. Just to chat for a little while. I feel like I need to talk to someone today... so why not my mom? Maybe she can help cure the boredom.

I totally understand. While I'm at work I can't wait for a day off. But then the day off is usually boring so I am ready to go back to work. It's funny how that works.
Moms to the rescue, I don't know what I would do w\out mine. The same thing happens to me sometimes, but I would rather be bored at home than bored at work, lol.
