The Colander

My co-worker and I went to The Colander today for supper.  Result, I have a tummy full of yummy pasta, chicken, and jo-jo’s (fried potatoes).  My tummy is happy so I’m happy.

I’m getting tres excited for Vancouver.  It’s only for the weekend but damned if I ain’t gonna make the most of it.  Peter is having a party and told me to invite some friends so now I’m REALLY looking forward to it.

Tomorrow’s my day off (finally) so I’m looking forward to sleeping in and not doing much.  I’ll have to do some laundry and some truck maintenance but otherwise filling my time is the order of the day.  It’s -7C here and it’s supposed to get colder… frankly I’m scared (.

I’ve been reading a book of my Mother’s this week.  It’s called The New Birth Order Book and it’s actually surprisingly interesting.  For first-born’s, like me, it talks about how we often struggle with perfectionism.  Well being the first born or two intense first-borns with Serious perfectionism issues I am what is classified as a frustrated perfectionist.  Frustrated because I have all these ideas of what I “should be” but am not.  Now I just have to work on realizing that what I “should be” is insane and not realistic.  Be happy with who you are life is so much easier.
