Happenings

The sun is shining today, despite the cold weather out there, and it's put me in a much better mood than I was in yesterday. I was really exhausted, and I spent most of the day lounging or napping. I asked my neighbor if she wanted to upgrade our Dish package to 200 channels, because it wouldn't be that much more money between the two of us, and after she found out we'd have Animal Planet, she was thrilled!! So I spent the afternoon overwhelmed with how many channels we now had, and couldn't find just one thing to watch! lol That was my excitement yesterday. I went to bed around 1:30am because I wanted to finish watch Gremlins!!

Today I've cleaned the bathroom, and scrubbed the shower out. I haven't done that in forever, because it just exhausts me. I did get tired, but not as much as I usually would. I put together the envelope for the PH Pals winner, wrote a check out, shredded some paper, and scooped the litter box. Yeah I know, soooooo exciting! However, what IS exciting is that I bought the table set I had wanted from Walmart.com!! A couple weeks ago, I was waiting to buy it because I had filled out an application for a Walmart credit card. While waiting, I'd keep going back to the link just to look at the table, and one night, it said it was sold out. I was so bummed!!! But every day I would go back, and this morning when I did, it was back in stock!! I never really did hear about the credit card, and then I realized....Walmart.com lets you pay with Paypal. I didn't even NEED a credit card. DUH!!! Well let me tell you, I put that table in my cart and continued to buy it quicker than you can blink!! LOL! The shipping date to the store (it would cost $107 in shipping if I had it sent here!! No thanks!!) is estimated to be around March 11-17th, so I have time to put beads in the spare room and put the former kitchen table in there, too.

I'M SO EXCITED!!!! AND I CAN'T HIDE IT!! I'M ABOUT TO LOSE CONTROL AND I THINK I LIKE IT!! (POINTER SISTERS) HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Ok, yes, I know I'm nuts! I'm also a wee bit tired, and I think it's time to go lay down! Unfortunately with earphones on. The dog is barking. *sigh*

John ordered some DVD's from Walmart website and it said it would be 2 weeks or so before they came in. BUT they have been coming in like 3-4 days. So do not be surprised if you get an email saying your table came in early! LOL!! The site to store is really pretty cool!! Of course his not heavy since they were DVD's. Hope you get someone to help you get it in your house! LOL!

Love,

Health Changes

 I finally thought I was making progress with my anxiety that had ramped up again back in November of last year. It's been a very long road of not feeling good, trying to increase the Remeron, trying to learn once again that my life is worth a whole lot of SOMETHING. The tremendous loss of my mom, my grandma, a couple of dear phriends, and the nursing home volunteering put a huge pressure of my value of what my life is supposed to be like. However, I had finally started to turn that around. In June, I was robbed (another story for another time, maybe), and on that day I figured that out, I realized I wasn't anxious at all. I was pumped with adrenaline that whole day since I was so angry, so I thought for sure the anxiety would be back again, but it wasn't. And for at least a month and a half, it's been pretty decent. I've been so thankful for that.  But in the last several weeks, I don't know what has happened to my body, especially my abdominal area, but I have

My Most Inspiring Possession

Image
A dear friend named Judi, whose journal I've been reading for years, has brought back her ARTSY ESSAY CONTEST ! I'm very excited about this, and hope that others will read the wonderful essays already posted in Judi's blog! Here is the topic for this month's new installment: What is your favorite and most inspiring possession? Tell us about it, and if you want an extra creative challenge... tell us about it without naming it until the very last sentence of your essay:):):) I own alot of possessions. When I first moved out of my parents' house, almost 9 years ago, I took this possession with me. It was mine, I had bought it, but I did allow the other members of my family to use it from time to time while I was at home. This possession has been a tremendous outlet for me to do a wide variety of things. I was able to record the barking of our first family dog, something that was cherished when she sadly died way too early for her doggy lifespan. I also was able to save

The Ideal Day

Once again, it's that time of month for dear Judi's Artsy Essay Contest! Please see the rules and regulations for this month here . I entered a couple month's ago when Judi decided to revive this wonderful contest, and decided I'd like to give it a shot this month! Here goes! My Ideal Day My ideal day would start out at 7am to get ready for work, instead of getting up to take a pill. My ideal day would be going to work as a teacher, instead of wondering if I'd feel well enough to do anything for that day. My ideal day would be working out at a gym, instead of hoping to have enough energy to just walk for 6 minutes on the treadmill at home. My ideal day would be to freely walk about around my home and in public, instead of being tethered to a plastic tube going into my nose, providing oxygen to keep me going. My ideal day would be remembering meeting times with friends or family, instead of keeping track of the 8 different times I need to take a pill or vitamin in
