hey everyone, just in real quick, got myself in over my head on a project around here. im switching fish tanks all around and now my whole house is practically upsdie down. nothing went right, and im so stiff and sore today from carrying everything up and down these stairs, that i can hardly move. i hurt so bad last night i took a pain pill, which made me really sick, today we went out and bought more fish and stuff. i almost have them both set up, just a few more things on those.
yesterday we all went to the docs, took kaleb, he loved me getting a shot, well actually they took blood to check my cholesterol. dew is gearing up for a major go over soon. told him to get my liscense tests set up so i could take him for his tests etc, and that if he waits till ice and snow are everywhere, we will have to wait till spring.
our truck has been on the road a couple of weeks now, should be home friday. the driver got stuck i think in mo for two days because they had the roads closed down, poor guy had to sleep in the truck cause all the rooms were filled. i guess it was a small town. he should be headed home now coming from alabama. our insurance came due, only 1200 for three months, and dew had to make the first truck payment, so i dont think we will be getting any money from this trip, just hope we get enough so next trip we can pocket some.
they are finally talking about letting me start routing the trips, corey just dont have time and keeps missing loads cause of it. plus we have to pay corey six percent to route the trips for us. i want to route them for us and his other drivers and make the money for it, 🙂
had a cousin die last week in fl, and they are planning a memorial service for this sunday afternoon for up here, so been dealing with getting the word out on that etc. this week i also have to call my sibs etc and try to get money out of them for mom and dads present. its like trying to pull teeth, and im no dentist. and they come up with the most petty stuff. makes me mad just thinking about it, arghhh.
lets see what else. put up our tree, hehe. its about two foot maybe, has fiber optics etc, so we just had to plug it in. we set in on my piano. rae took most of my other decorations, when she took our six ft tree, and i dont think im going to get them back anytime soon, which is fine, cause i really dont feel like decorating, im not enjoying the pre holiday cleaning that i have to start soon either. im going to have to wash walls, curtains, all that good stuff.
iv started trying to play my piano again too. boy its almost like starting all over again, and its going very slow, i can almost pick out what child is this, so im making a little progress. im going through here in a few and practice some more, its hard to get time when i can make noise without offending anyone, 🙂
it got to almost 70 here today, felt like spring, but boy the wind blew my hair everywhere. it was a good day to get out, kaleb thought it was summer again. tomorrow we will be lucky to hit 40, and we wonder why we always feel sick.
well, i guess this is about long enough for now. . tomorrow im hoping to get the house back in order, i had to rearrange the furniture in several rooms to get my aquariums up, and that of course led to me finding more yuck that needs tending too. im going to get dew to lift this batch though, dont think my body will let me. i really overdid yesterday.
used to be i could lift a five gallon bucket chest high without much trouble, now i have to do half a bucket at a time and use both hands, and i thought i was going to die doing that, hehe. good work out though, and one ill have to do now every week.
well off to get some stuff done, got about 200 marbles i have to scrub for kaleb. he is into marbles now, and we want to teach him how to play the game of marbles with them. going to have to find some shooters though. only have two left. it was no easy task, let me tell ya, digging all those marbles out of all my dirty tank gravel. my nails are now destroyed. 🙂
ps, this weekend, is the biggest meteor shower display of the year, if your out and its not cloudy, look to the heavens.
