My Day Book #19

Today is...
July 28th, 2010

Outside My Window...
Sunny and 85 Degrees. It's supposed to hit 90 today. But then, just in time for when I am supposed to spend the day swimming with Young Miss Caitlyn, it's only going to be in the mid 70's.

I am Thinking...
about the house. As Usual. Now, it's because Walt was talking about handing us the keys August 1st and we still have little to nothing done. I came home, cooked dinner, ate, and then hit the dinning room of doom last night. I will say, I gave it two good hours until, out of nowhere, a migraine struck, knocking me out of commission for the night. I was bummed. It was only 9pm. However, in that 2 hours, I CLEANED the dinning room of doom, AND got it 3/4 of the way packed. However, the only thing TO pack in there is the Hutch with the dishes and whatnot in it. Some of which are being stacked up in a corner for the Ex's parents to take. Forgive me, but I don't really feel like cooking a nice Thanksgiving dinner and serving it on HER wedding china and eat it with HER good silver. No thanks. I'll get my own, thank you.

I am thankful for...
This brownie I am eating and cup of delicious coffee I am drinking. Still have the slightest throb from my migraine. Not enough to do something about, but still there enough to be a slight annoyance.


What I have learned this week...
Bee is as stresses about this moving and packing thing as me. However, we handle it differently. I stress, stress, stress. Make a plan. Stress. Then, I execute said plan and when I can see progress, I feel better. Bee gets so overwhelmed, he doesn't know where to start, so he ignores it hoping it will take care of itself. With me around, it will, and I need to learn to either let things lie until he is forced to take care of it, or stay on him until he deals with it. Neither sound appealing to me. In fact, both sound down right irritating, but unless I want to spend my life doing everything hard or unpleasant on my own.....I gotta nip this in the bud.

I am wearing...
Jeans, Black flowy top, black sweater and sandals.

I am creating...
an organized mess from packing....

I am going...
to be spending a lot of time putting things in boxes over the next week or so.

I am reading...
July issue of Cosmo.

I am hoping...
To get some serious ambition and kick our butts into gear on packing. I am so sick of taking about it. Stressing about it, and doing it. I can't wait until it's done.

I am hearing...
my space heater running under my desk. I'm not normal.

Around the House...
I am looking at everything and stressing out. There is so.much.crap. in that house. Then, I think about my apartment. It's only 585 SQ FT....so not too much is there...but still. It's at least another evening devoted to just my place. Then, last night I went out into Bee's garage to put something out there and almost fainted. I forgot all the shit, and I do mean shit, that is in that garage. It wouldn't be so bad if it was all stuff to be pitched, but there's stuff we want to keep intermingled....ugh...oy-vey. And, I told "C" to clean her room Monday during the day when she was home all day. I get home Monday night, kiddos are at Bee's in-laws for a week or two to go camping and her room is an absolute mess. Still. Sometimes I want to just throw my hands up and cry.

One of my Favorite things this week...
Cedar Point. By far. I forgot how much I love that place. I want to go back for their Halloweekends celebration. However, maybe without the kiddos. Not that I don't want them there with us, but we can ride all the rides we want without worrying about what to do with them.

A Picture Thought...
Saturday night, after the Game. It's me (please forgive my appearance. It was hot and I was outside in the humidity most of the day), BESTFRIEND, and Young Miss Caitlyn. BESTFRIEND got his name because one day at practice I offered him a brownie and he told me he loved me. It was his second practice with the team ever. Haha! He is really a sweet guy and one of my favorite on the team. His real name is Alan Cephus, but we just call him "Cephus". He is a one the the "play makers" on the team. This guy could have done some great things in College Football, if not the Pros. Hopefully, he'll make it back!

Because, I've talked about you in, like 17 other entries...it would be like repeating myself, and while I do that enough on my own, I didn't feel it was nessicary. However, if I had to rate my love for both of you on a scale, you'd be higher, which means I love you more! Hey, I made you cake! :D
