I have spent the past 6 days trying to clean my house. Of course, rafting, Absolut and a Friday night with my singles group seemed to get in the way. But I am sooooo close. Yesterday I cleaned out my shed and created a hefty pile for the humane society thrift to pick up. Now let's see how long it takes me to actually call and have them pick it up...

I am in the minimalist mode again. Trying to weed out the things I don't use, haven't used in the past year, or are just too damn heavy to move. Note: trying to get the new job and MOVE!

Ryan is on his way to mom's house in Michigan to recoup from surgery. He has to do the IV antibiotics again and is frustrated, but at least in good spirits.

So I went for my annual women's appt. last week. My blood pressure was so damn high she almost made me go to the hospital. Hmmmm, what would be the reason for high blood pressure in the past 4 months???

1. I lost my good friend from breast cancer and miss her tremendously

2. Have to get my own lump checked out and hoping for the best.

3. I have quit and started smoking AGAIN

4. I would rather substitute my friend Absolut for a healthy dinner

5. I have no best friends anymore and am frustrated when my bunny won't answer me when I vent.

6. I absolutely HATE my job, but realize it is the best situation for getting out of debt so I suffer until I get that interview

7. I have gained 10 pounds in the past year from all fault of my own

8. I have been putting off a cold for 2 months and it is ready to hit

9. I don't enjoy having a nurse practitioner that looks like 'Pat' slap on the rubber gloves to check out my privates

10. I need a raunchy sexual encounter that I would be embarrased to tell you about!

Other than that, things are splendid!
