Re-Designing Me

tired of being tired

Tue, 21 Nov 2006 20:41:21 -0700

biff woke me this morning by sitting on my back and allie and 'zilla were jumping on and off the bed playing with each other... there IS no snooze alarm on a cat that wants breakfast!

been super tired... had my usual morning headache (monster and tylenol took care of that) but could hardly keep my eyes open all day

worked on getting organized for turkey day and wls group xmas party... recipes are evading me... had to search for alternatives, but i think i've found them :)

tomorrow is turkey day

spent the day waiting for my isp to get it's schuff together... something about setting the system to monitor itself 24/7 so the human element doesn't have to be there at all times to make sure everything is working.... seems that all is fine, with the exception of the ppl with dial-up accounts... guess who that is... me!

made my razzelberry pie for tomorrow, made coffee pods for the next 18 days and got my holiday fare cookbook ready for group on the 9th... had a headache off and on all day, so what else is new....

HAPPY TURKEY DAY

7:27 AM Holiday

� whoopie, seems ycsi fixed the dial-up email problem :)
� this year was quite different than last.... last year we spent the day before at edgewood, celebrating thanksgiving with mom and on turkey day we were traveling to utah with angie for thanksgiving dinner.... *sigh*

10:41AM Holiday
� the wind is a'blowin and it's a'snowin!
� my new ds lite decided to bite the dust today... good thing i took advantage of their "no questions asked" warranty...

3:00PM Holiday
� looming, but since i'm such a prefectionist and insist on undoing problem rows to repeat them correctly, i didn't get very far
� stopped snowing a bit ago, got about 4"
� weather watcher issued a sever winter weather warning... we'll see...

9.00PM Holiday
� had turkey dinner, was great and we didn't over prepare this year, but
� still, neither of us could eat very much
� allie now likes to play catch as well as fetch....
� sometimes she even plays volleyball with casey :)

no snow today

spent the day watching a 'without a trace' marathon and making a cat bed... yup, i finally did something and it turned out pretty well, in my not so humble opinion :)

dew point & scattered showers

went to bed an hour earlier last night, slept all night (with the exception of time spent snogging with Allie) and still woke up feeling like i needed a nap...

'zilla has taken on the responsibility upon himself of grooming Allie, whether she likes it or not ;->

made bourbon balls today and worked on finishing up my latest looming project...

when does it get better

Tue, 28 Nov 2006 21:23:15 -0700

was busy this morning taking care of things that i have let slide and doing the bookkeeping.... now i know why i started letting things go, i get confused and frustrated about what i was / am doing and start walking in circles going up the wall, so i started not doing anything and stuff started piling up and driving me nuts... so today i vowed to get something done... stuff got done, but now i'm climbing the walls... time to relax and do some beading :)

finished my latest loom project but need to make a few strips to go with it... might take me a bit longer to finish this whole project than i first anticipated... did 2.5 minutes on the obi today... gotta get in some semblance of shape, will be enough snow to go skiing soon... well, it's tired and i'm late.... think i'll go to bed...

where does the time go

Wed, 29 Nov 2006 21:20:05 -0700

internet has been less than cooperative today... first thing this morning there was too much net congestion and i couldn't go anywhere or get my email... now, i got dissed and can't seem to get logged back on.... guess i'll be doing other things this evening....

end of the second to the last month of the year

a 5# cat jumping off my over-full bladder woke me up around 8am this morning... not sure why i slept in, but feeling like a zombie all day makes me so not want that to happen again... the day has seemed to float by without me... one minute i think about doing something and half hour later it still hasn't been done and i can't remember what it was in the first place... got the grocery list done (hope i didn't forget anything) and worked on my looming a bit, other than that, the day is a blur... and in addition i've been having monthly cycle symptoms... soreness and cramps... i have my theory as to why, lack of vitamin e, so i started taking the gelcaps again and hope that next month this won't happen... if it does happen again next month, i will have to save some $$$ for some dry e and try again for another month....

need to ketchup

had upset tummy most of the morning so i didn't do too much, vegged around as usual... got some bills taken care of and finished the edge beading for my smudge box... only have the top edge beading to do then i can put the whole thing together... noticed a rash on my chest and belly when i went in for my shower this morning, it doesn't hurt or itch but it's bumpy like welts... put some of my steroid cream on this morning and benedryl lotion this evening... casey thinks, and so do i, that it was caused by the new body spray i got when we went shopping on friday... will stop using it tomorrow and see how the rash does....

still need to ketchup

Mon, 04 Dec 2006 21:21:16 -0700

got some odds and ends done today and started working on the new looming pattern for the rest of my project... thought i'd be done with it by now, but i guess all things don't work like we imagine... the rash is a bit worse today, but i refrained from using any body spray...

clever but interesting title goes here

i wonder if anyone is actually following along anymore... i know that no one has been since saturday since the hosting service i use has been down... what a time for the 'hostest' to move and be without internet.... no way can she know that all her 'hostees' are sitting out here in cyber space in the dark... oh well, this too shall pass

took erica the second loaf of whole wheat sunflower bread... hope she likes it )

tomorrow i start making the goodies for group on saturday... i think i shall be a bit busy for the next three days!

but did i say...

Wed, 06 Dec 2006 20:30:01 -0700

busy busy busy... btw, did i say i was busy today ;-> made 3 different kinds of sugar-free goodies... the tea boxes i ordered for bead organization arrived today, wow, color me impressed, they weren't due until next tuesday! schtuff is starting to come together, just wish there wasn't so many things on my 'must do' list so i could find a little time to play!!!
