What is the best way to eat a chocolate bunny? There always seems to be a debate as to which end to start with ... the ears or the butt/feet (depending on how your bunny is shaped). I've only heard one original answer and I kind of like it. First you eat out his Heart. What you eat after that won't matter a whit to him.
Well, everybody is home now. And apparently, Dona started to complain all the way home as soon as they crossed the border. (Or there abouts. Bluesky at least!) She was complaining about the snow we still have and how much cooler it is here. She woke up this morning and loudly announced how ugly and depressing everything was. This woman is the epitome of negativity. No wonder my Star is tarnishing ...
I woke up this morning, saw the new snow on the ground and what was (still is) falling and yes, I admit to disappointment, but I also admit that I thought everything looked beautiful. It didn't bother me a bit, really, as I found myself with a day off today and tomorrow. I wasn't working in it. I was happy. Meanwhile, Dona spent the whole day moping downstairs. Stupid woman.
Anyway, I went ahead and painted the bathroom. Moon Mist. Very nice colour. I wasn't sure if I should be dismayed or not when my mother announced that she loved the color and claimed to have the same colour at her house. (My mother has questionable taste, in my eyes, when it comes to colours.) But I put that feeling behind me. It was the first time I had painted a room and I was very proud of myself. I can see all the mistakes and errors, but I'm told that everybody who creates their own work like that can see them. The point is that nobody else notices them. Well, nobody did. And I'm not stupid enough to point them out. So there you go.
In addition to painting the hall bathroom, I organised the linen and broom closets, and re-arranged the kitchen cupboards. The flour/sugar jars are back where they belong and the green bottle thingy is strategically placed. Dona didn't like the jar switch. She tried to hide it, but you could hear it in her voice. She didn't like it, but she couldn't do anything about it. It'll stay as it is. All in all it was a very busy, yet satisfying weekend. Despite the lack of proper sleep due to a large bed and a noisy house. ;)
I've finally set up an appointment for Jade to get his massage. A Wiccan massagist ... how cool is that? She's Shorty's mother too, so I've known her for years. The appointment just happens to land on his birthday too ... So it all works out, doesn't it? At least, I hope it will.
Quitting my job is sure going to suck in the payday department. I hope I can find something else soon. It won't be hard to find something if I'm looking for just anything ... there isn't a business around that isn't screaming for help. Still, I'd prefer to work with the horses. We'll see.
Tomorrow should prove to be busy too ... I hope to get a few things accomplished. Like getting my monthly measurements at Curves done, seeing somebody about my new business grant and buying that outfit for my god-brother's wedding before it goes "away". I'll have to run in a payment on my wedding dress this payday too. I have until August, but why wait last minute? Only $600 left to go anyhow. Maybe Lynne will come with me to see it and we'll have lunch. I've been trying to research for a dress that will compliment mine but not make us stand out too much. I have a few ideas, but we'll see.
I keep thinking I'm forgetting to write something, but I can't think of what it is. Feel free to leave a comment if you have any questions ... or maybe even some comments. Comments are nice too.
Sweet Dreams!
