     So apparently someone thinks there needs to be a sickness in the house over the holidays…
Abby was very ill and in the hospital over Christmas last year. And this year over Thanksgiving, I have a very bad sinus infection/cough/cold whatever. Its just a tich irritating!! I am feeling better and pretty productive for the most part.
My laundry room looks like a tornado went through it, but in the last few days I’ve slowly washed almost everything that was invading the space. The folding and putting away part are the things I don’t much enjoy. Slowly anyway…

    I had Thanksgiving day off, but have to work the 4 days following… so I am on day number 2 today. I don’t mind being there over the weekend, its usually pretty quiet and relaxed. We enjoy snuggling with our residents.

    I had a good talk with my brother and his wife about buying a house, which they are in the process of doing. They are looking for something that speaks to them. So they are taking their time. But I told them what I was paying for rent + utilities to live here and they ensured me that I am NUTS! And that I could have a house payment thats less than that. It sounds great and I’d love a house payment instead of throwing my money away every month, but there are so many other factors to consider. I am not sure where I want to live. And I am hoping to finish nursing school in the next year and a half… and then hopefully move closer to the Twin Cities where there are more jobs. Also, I want Abby to be in a good school system… not just a number in a HUGE school. So maybe I’ll have to commute… who knows what the future will bring. Spending less money every month sounds great, but I think you need soo many more decisions made before that can be something your going to do. So on the back burner it goes…

    Its my 27th birthday next friday and I’m hoping to do something fun… we shall see. Some girls from work want me to go to a local bar and hang out with them and other friends want me to head toward St. Cloud. Not sure either will happen anyway… time will tell. I’m not excited to be another year older and not have any of my life goals met. Its a bit frustrating.

    Another thing that weighs on my mind is… my weight. Ahh yes. Weight Watchers was soo good to me and I lost so much weight… but I’ve gained about half of it back… and we all let our daily lives take over and lose sight of our motivation. It frustrates me beyond belief. I wish I could just stick to it. I wish I had Bob or Jillian living in my brain. And told me "ARE YOU REALLY going to eat that??" Maybe thats why I can’t get a boyfriend… I’m soo undesirable…
Here’s me bitching again.
Have a good weekend everyone… I’ve gotta finish laundry, make some lunch and go to work…
And somewhere in there doctor myself to feeling better…
