Procrastinating

I've been having one of those past couple of days. Just been putting everything off until I absolutely have to do it. The kitchen has been completely neglected, and even though I thought it was disgusting, I couldn't manage to get myself off my ass to actually clean it, until this morning. I have a huge pile of clean clothes that I haven't folded since I washed them.... I can't even remember how long ago. Let's just say it includes some of Hubby's clothes, and he's been deployed since last month.

Same thing with the grocery situation. I ran out of whole milk for Lewis last night, so this morning and afternoon, he got 2%. Bad, I know, but I just can't muster the energy to head down the street to the store. And I have one full day left of baby food, so we need that, too. It wouldn't be so bad- I could pick up some salami and potato chips for the salami & potato chip sandwich I'd been craving... with a side of potato salad (NOT the potato-macaroni crap hawaiians seem to love... way too much mayo).

But I do need to conserve my energy for the week. I'm getting our taxes done Monday, dentist Tuesday, Mom's bday Wednesday, Dive Tower Social Thursday (I might skip that one), webcam with Diane Friday, and Boyz II Men concert Saturday. Whew.

Maybe I'll just take a quick drive to the Safeway. More expensive than the commissary, but less headache and less crowds. Plus, I have a feeling their potato salad might be a little better.

I feel like a bad mom & wife. I mean, who lets their house go for so long? And who runs out of milk for their kid? It reminds me of a trailer for a new tv show I saw, where the mom says she ran out of diapers two days ago and has been using paper towels and tape. Yeesh. I guess there's my motivation to get to the store.
