I need new clothes. My wardrobe has shrunk so much in the past few months, and it's not very diverse. I have like 2 skirts I can wear to church and maybe 3 tops, and then those ALSO serve as part of my regular tops for the every-day wardrobe...and I have like 3 other tops aside from that. Good thing I stay in my PJs all day sometimes. It's a wardrobe-saver.

I was all excited about this gift card because I can get new clothes now.

I don't have any pants that fit me that aren't PJs or sweatpants, so that would be a great place to start.

But, no, not enough time, nothing that fit....

Yaaay.... And I didn't hold it against her personally, but I am feeling more than a bit envious of Cat, because she had a BLAST tonight. She got a TON of new clothes, and they're all really cute, and she's super-excited.

And she didn't pay for ANY of it.

All I did was spend $20 I didn't have on 3 books and a pair of cheap gloves that I'm not going to read/use for a long time anyway. And I ONLY went so I could get clothes.

We went to Wendy's after we left Kohl's a little after 10, so Mom got me a Caramel Apple Parfait and a Wildberry Lemonade, as well as a drink for her and Cat, too. The parfait was the redeeming part of the night, I think.

But I'm still really crushed about tonight. I didn't really have fun at all. It was just a big load of anxiety and depression and frustration.

I think I'm gonna read some more Baby Blues to cheer me up before bed.

Which reminded me that that dumb dog we're sitting peed in my room not too long ago.

Ugh.

And that during winter my hips always ache at night. Well, "ache" isn't a strong enough word. They HURT. REALLY bad. Like, I wake up and whimper because they hurt so much. They, like...cramp, or something. I dunno. But they ache all day afterward. Last night was the first time it got bad; once or twice earlier this month I had a little pain, but I didn't really notice it. Last night, I had to spend a few minutes adjusting my back and stretching my hips and rearranging myself so I could fall back asleep.

And my right hip hasn't stopped hurting all day.... Yay, winter.

I've been thinking maybe it's the cold, but even when I'm SUPER-bundled up, and I feel toasty warm...the hips.

So I dunno.
