Hmmm

It's so hard to think of something interesting to post about when life is uneventful. Do-de-do...hmmm...Nope I got nothin'. Sigh...

On the other hand, no news is often good news. My car is running, so I don't have that to bitch about anymore...I could bitch about sitting on the phone with Fido for an hour on two separate occasions this month, but I'll spare you all the details on that one...all in all, everything is running smoothly, but the thing is, I'm kind of bored. Not that I want bad things to start happening, but I need to shake things up a bit. The problem is, with the aforementioned car problems we had in the past, we don't have a lot of coin to play with. I'd just go to the casino like my Uncle Curtis does, but I don't have a big ole horse shoe up my bum, so that's not gonna work. I'm running out of colors to dye my hair, so I can't keep changing it just for the sake of changing it. I keep saying I'm going to start working out aside from the two days a week I already play squash, but I'm pretty undisciplined about that kind of thing these days...

Oh well...I guess I'll just go down stairs and finish up the client I'm doing. I'm sure I'll think of something to get out of this funk. Until then, I'll just have to count my blessings, of which I have many.

My beautiful girl



Well, I guess she's not a girl anymore, but a young woman. My girlfriend, Kiki, pointed out that the night she and I had our grad pictures taken, Alicia was there with us. I had just found out I was expecting. In some ways it seems like yesterday, and yet, in other ways it seems like a hundred years ago.
What a beautiful life I brought into the world, and how she has blessed my life, I could never put into words. I sit here welling up with tears while I type this. Sigh...what a sap.

My car has had an engine transplant!!! Ok, so I'm putting my new mechanic's kids through collage, but at least my ride works. LOL. The heat works, the radio works,...Am I dreaming? Kelly's car has also gotten a new engine, but Kelly did that one himself. I was pretty darned impressed that my computer technician hubby actually did an engine swap all by himself.

It's funny how you can be soooo stressed out about some ongoing problem for so long, and then all of a sudden, the problem is resolved, and you have no stress. Besides, of course, the credit card that has been exhausted, and the looming monthly payments on it, at least I have my independence back. That's huge!

Today is my day off, and I'm still sitting here in my pjs drinking tea. I'll do my morning crossword, work on a little craft I've been working on, watch "All my Children," and then later, "Dr. Phil." Then I'll go do some shopping and maybe make a nummy dinner. It's a relaxing day. Kelly and I went to a friend's for cocktails on the weekend, and, I'm just not 20 years old anymore. I need some recovery time now. LOL
