I just took a nice long shower and it felt just divine. Would love to just fall asleep, but my hair's still wet and I refuse to use a blow dryer. I've had an extremely busy last two days. First of all, I am completely fine. I've been getting a lot of calls and emails lately from friends and family. I guess people do read this blog after all. Ha. I should have updated this blog on Monday when I got back from LV, but I was just to tired and I had tons of laundry to do. It was difficult to travel, but it would have been so much worse if I had come back on Thursday as originally scheduled. When I think about it, I get the chills. It would have been really painful. All I kept thinking at the airport was that I would have definitely needed a wheelchair, at the very least.
Dr. F checked me out before we left LV and gave me the okay to fly. Ultrasound revealed that everything was great. My pain almost completely subsided by Sunday night and no sight of any bleeding, so I guess I am in the clear. I think it was perfect timing to get a flight on Monday. I was able to carry some of my bags, but AC took care of the more heavy ones. Poor guy was carrying his bags and mine.
When we got back home, Franny was nice enough to cook us all dinner. It was good! Then we watched the 2nd to last episode of BB5 and the Apprentice. I think we got AC hooked on those two shows. Too bad BB5 ended. I can't believe stupid Drew won.
Ever since I got home, I have had this incessant urge to clean the house. I am so sick of all the junk that we don't have ANY use for. The two guest rooms were full of boxes of crap. Most of the time, it's easier to just move things around to make things "look" clean by hiding them in closets or putting them in boxes...but I didn't just want it to look clean, I wanted all those things gone. So, I spent the whole day yesterday going through the boxes and organizing everything into piles of "trash", "recyclable", "st vincent de paul" and "stuff that franny will kill me for throwing out even though I want to put them on fire". The rodeo was totally full of our stuff. It felt so good to get rid of it all. Not to mention it was a cleansing experience for me. Whenever I clean or organize the house, I feel really great inside. In a neat house, I accomplish more things, I think clearer, and I am less stressed. Who wants to live in a dirty house anyways, right?
After dropping off the crap, I went to Frys to get an iron. Ours broke right before LV. I can not live without my iron. Speaking of breaking things, I broke our shredder today while I was shredding bills and paperwork. It kept getting jammed so I got a little frustrated and accidently broke it. Oops. My bad.
So, I guess I'll be going to Target tomorrow to get another one. I found one for 30 bucks that looks decent. I did a lot today, too. I cleaned up the kitchen, vacuumed the upstairs, got some stains out of the living room, and finished up on the cleaning in the two upstairs rooms. It looks so pretty now. I still have to finish up a few more things:
Organizing photos.
Organize Franny's closet.
Organize the garage.
The garage will be a challenge because I can't lift the heavy things in there, so we'll see how that goes. I don't think I will start on that anytime soon though.
I haven't done any web stuff. I told myself that I am taking at least a week off from it. I need to focus on other things, like the house and the AP. A lot of things need to happen and I need to take advantage of the time I have off. However, I did create my business card. Ron is supposed to make it, but I didn't like his initial design. It just wasn't me, so I designed one myself.
Tomorrow, I have an early appointment here in San Lorenzo at 8am, and then another at 10am in SF. Crap! I forgot I have another appointment tomorrow in Fremont. How am I going to work that out? Because I also planned to get fitted for my bridesmaid dress for Jenn's wedding in Daly City. I hope it fits, but all the other girls have said that theirs were to big. It's strapless, so we can't have that thing fall off. LOL. I need to cancel one of these appointments.
Last night, I had dinner with Alvin, Ron, Jimmy, AC, and Franny in SF. We went to Circolo. It's a cuban/asian fusion restaurant. We saw Norman Vale's sister there. The food was good. I had foig gras. Tasty. The company was okay, but why am I always the only girl? Sometimes my mind wanders because I have nothing to say about baseball and I'm so sick of commenting about fine/cute girls. Jenn, why did you have to move to Sac, huh? J/K.
We had dessert at Citizen Cake. They always have the most unique desserts. I wasn't to impressed with mine though.
