It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before, but this should be named “things i’m annoyed / confused / want to complain about”, however I couldn’t figure out how to make any of those into a snappy title, so Tuesday Troubles it is. And yes, I do realize that these aren’t true “troubles”. I know these for sure could be defined as first world problems!
~Now that it’s finally getting nice out and B will actually be home for dinner on a nightly basis (well, he will be soon), we are so going to start eating outside on the patio. Except I realized that there is no place for WB to sit. I sold his highchair (I wasn’t a fan of it) and he just uses a booster seat high chair that we attach to our kitchen table chairs inside. This way he’s the exact same height as us and is more a part of the meal than if we used the high chair that we had (it was way too tall). So tell me, what are my options for the patio? Are there outdoor high chairs? Something I can attach to a metal table without ruining it?
~What on earth is up with all the cars parking on the street? In some neighborhoods, like for example, in a BIG CITY, I totally get this. I mean, where else would you park? But our neighborhood has houses with attached garages. And driveways. So let’s say you have a 3 car garage. One spot is probably filled with your crap (tools, lawn mower, etc), so that leaves two spots to park in. And then you’ve got three additional spots in the driveway. So why are we all parking in the street? Am I missing something? Even if your garage is totally 100% full of crap, you still have a driveway no? Why not park there instead of on both sides of the street so that only one car can fit down the middle to drive. Does this annoy anyone else? Because it really gets me. First world problem for sure.
~In cases of new construction, don’t you always wonder what they are building? Why don’t they put up signs? Everyone wants to know don’t they? I LOVE when I pass a construction site and it says “Future Home of CVS” or whatever, so I know what is being built. But then there are those sites you pass every single day and cannot figure out what it’s going to be. A fun new restaurant? A bank? Medical offices? Who knows?
~I wasn’t feeling too hot last week so I did nothing, but I got back to C25K yesterday and what do you know, it was much easier than it has been in the past. I don’t know why, but it was. However, while easier, it was BORING. Oh so boring. What do you do when you run (or walk) on the treadmill to stay entertained? I need to be distracted so I am not thinking about quitting the entire time. What do you recommend? A fun playlist (if so with what)? An audio book? Help me not be bored!
~We have some workmen coming to the house today and it’s always so awkward to have someone in the house. I feel like I am invading on their space by being home. I know, this is very strange because it’s my house and all, but I just think if it were me and I was in someone’s house working, I wouldn’t want them staring at me all day while I was working you know? Does anyone else feel this way? Or am I just weird?
That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?
