Computers ARE a necessity

So we had a few issues with our laptop and it didn't take long at all for me to realize that having a computer is most definitely a necessity in my life. We got it "somewhat" fixed. It is a temporary fix, but it definitely will do for now. I suppose we are now forced to upgrade to a new laptop. This one has been so great to me though......

It's been a while....

So it has been a bit since I have posted, which may or may not matter since I am not sure if anyone even reads this. LOL. I like doing it however, so here we go.
We have moved into our house. I actually need to take pictures of it furnished and decorated, but I am waiting to get curtains. Curtains really change the way a room can look, but I just haven't found any decent ones at a decent price; however, truth be told...I haven't looked much because I have been so crazy busy. I am pretty much back to work full time and we just finished unpacking everything (- a few boxes in the office). I am surely suprised my leg is holding up, but it is! We are having a housewarming party on the 19th, so we have to get the yard ready for that. I am now deciding what kind of food to serve. We have decided on a BBQ, but I am not sure what else. Music is another issue. We don't really have a great stereo, but friends is all that matters!
Well, I think that is all for now. I'll write more soon!

Confidence vs. Meanness

Does confidence come with meanness? Are they essentially one in the same? Why does it seem that people who are self confident are also rude, selfish and for lack of a more sophisticated term - mean? Even my ownself, who is described by others as sweet and too kind find that as I gain confidence at times, I loose my never-ending kindness. So my question is to be confident - does it come with other less negative qualities?

SETTLING IN

Well, we finished moving everything in Sunday night. What a chore! My goodness....if I don't have to move again for 5 years, it will be too soon!!! I love our new place. We are only about 3/4 unpacked and it already feels like home. Brian loves the neighborhood. It is such a tightnit little group. I am so far enjoying it thoroughly.
I need to finish unpacking all of the odds and ends, but I have NO motivation!!! I am so tired. Between moving and work, I just want to lay on the couch and not move! LOL We don't have TV until tomorrow, so of course Brian is occupying himself in the garage. Well, that is all for now, but we are planning to have a housewarming party in April. Details to follow.

No pain no gain is garbage.....

To an extent, I believe the saying no pain means no gain (like with exercising), but when you are talking about an issue like pushing through the pain on my injured foot....I feel the opposite is true. I pushed through what I could of my foot pain today, trying to get stuff packed and moved and now I am in absolutely horrible pain. I really hope with a night's rest I will be ok; otherwise, it is bad news bears tomorrow. We have a full day of moving tomorrow. And I have a full work week ahead of me. It also doesn't help that it has suddenly gotten cold again, which makes my the joint in my ankle feel like it is going to crack. Ok, well, enough of my complaining session.....off to finish dinner.

GETTING A MOVE ON.....

Well, it is Saturday morning. My company has left and we are about 1/3 of the way into moving our stuff over to the new house. We have odds and ends packed and ready to go, but we have a long way to go. It is amazing....no matter how much you try to prepare for moving, you are never ready. We will be moving most of the smaller stuff today. Tomorrow will be all of the furniture and hopefully, we will be spending our first night in the new house tomorrow.

SICKNESS MESSES EVERYTHING UP

I have been getting sick the past two days, which basically means every part of my body hurts and I barely have enough energy to shower. It really sucks because not only do I normal life to live, but I have visitors and I am supposed to be getting ready to move. Grrrrrrr.
