One short entry written in 2 days
So I started this Monday while I was at work:
God I love being cold! I am sitting here in my little cubicle wrapped up in a sweater and I am happy as a pig in you know what! I guess my love affair with summer is over for another year. Oh wait, not yet, I have this long weekend to get through before I can completely welcome the brisk weather!
So my weekend was pretty good for the most part. I spent most of Friday afternoon waiting for the brakes on my car to be fixed but since it was a few hundred less than we thought we were pretty happy. Friday evening I got possessed and went into our storage room and went through several large totes. I did accomplish making a mess! But I also have several bags for donation, a few bags to go in C�s yard sale and a small rubbish bag. Not bad. Of course I still have a huge tote of papers to go through. Papers are always the worst. I have kept letters, notes, old essays�you name it, I kept it. It�s hard to part with this stuff. I have decided to cover that tote back up and put it away til the next time K is on nights. I have more demanding things right now. We have to get our house clean for company this weekend.
Saturday we went to ribfest with C and her guy. We had arrived around 4 � so it was early enough there was no crowds which meant we finished super early. We made plans to drive back to C�s, ditch our car and drive to the casino. I only planned on spending $20 and I walked out with $11 after an hour of being entertained at the slot machines. C and her guy lost $50 each within 30 minutes of getting there. Keith was up $12 from his $20 but then lost it all. We left, hit a tim�s and headed back to ribfest for dessert. I first had a bloomin� onion which is delicious but oh so greasy and oh so huge. I had to throw half of it away. We left around 9 and headed back to C�s where we went hot tubbin� and then sat outside in the beautiful night air until midnight! That never happens with C.
Sunday I woke up after sleeping poorly all congested. I sneezed at least a billion times and felt terrible. I�m not one for allergies�or at least I never was. Keith gave me a pill he found in our medicine cabinet which eventually cleared my head but then a while later I could barely keep my eyes open and I ended up zonking out for over an hour.
It was 7 by the time I got back up and we had yet to eat dinner. Our house was a disaster and neither of us had the ambition to do anything about it. We�ll be paying for that this week as we have to clean and get it ready by Friday.
-------- So yes I am glad to say cleaning did commence Monday evening! We even made a dent in our cleaning! Go us. I had a pretty good night of sleep and then BAM woke up with the stupid allergies back in full force. I was not impressed. I found another sinus pill - this one slightly less expired! It helped but I felt kind of in a fog all day - claritin clear my ass! Both Keith and I are exhausted tonight - me due to allergies him due to a bad night sleep. I managed to go for a walk last night but I can tell it's not gonna happen today. I kind of made it out for a walk at lunch - I had to go and buy a top which totally sapped my walking time. Why did I have to buy a top you ask? Oh because the one I wore for the first time (brand new) was ripped at the seam on the left side. And this is why I buy second hand! Alright I have to go salvage some of this night while my sugar high is still kickin' in. A little cleaning is better than none!
