After a long Wednesday at home, I was ready to hole up in my room and take a break. But, I had already made plans to grab a drink after work with some of the other girls and so I made the preparations to be seen in public. There were just 3 of us and the bar was fairly empty for a change, which was nice. The other girls had had pretty awful days and when I compared them to mine, I felt like I'd won the lottery. Sometimes I need to vent and sometimes I'll have a hard day, but liking the family you live with seems to be a non-negotiable. I can't imagine not getting along with them. Sure, I need a break every once in a while, but I do actually enjoy them. Some of these girls have it rough, and I was reminded of that today.
The 16 year old's birthday was today and we made Mexican food. Obviously by we I mean me. I also decided to try refried beans. We don't have pinto beans, so I made it with red beans and they ended up purple somehow. They turned out quite good and definitely improved the burritos. We finished up with chocolate cupcakes and everyone seemed to enjoy it.
