I realized that was a weird word to describe the need for something: fix.
The word fix usually defines a solution to a problem.
I am fully aware of the slang terminoligy involving drugs, but it's not like I'm addicted. I think.
I just needed a moment to enjoy something completely adult that was not considered healthy, child-friendly, or any character from Yo Gabba Gabba. Since the television was now under his command for the day, I naturally sought refuge in the refrigerator, and fixed my mini Mommy meltdown of sorts.
So I've now decided it can mean two things, remembering that just yesterday I had been so stressed out that The Hubs sent my looking for some anti-stress ointment if it existed, which I did actually find, wouldn't you believe, in the form of a pedicure. It was glorious, and now so are my toes. I feel so "non-mommy" with a little white flower painted on my big toe. It's just one of those little things that reminds me that I'm still a "ME", even though sometimes the pieces of my world get tossed to the bottom of my purse and crushed by Gerber Arrowroot cookies, light up Toy Story shoes, and the knowledge that even though nobody else can see them, I have three Hot Wheels, a pacifier, and fruit snacks where my lip gloss used to be.
Hence today's word: FIX.
