This has been a whole week of expecting the worse and... not getting it.

Who is peachizcreme? I forgot. Sorry!

Made it through another Craptastic Wednesday™. Feeling much better today as I have only two cleans, and therefore got to sleep in this morning. It's amazing how much clearer my head is, and I was able to deal with a few small tasks that involved utter asshats. (No, none of you.) Yesterday, I had no cope at all.

AND IT'S NOT RAINING. At the moment.

Things that could be better: payment from my bank missed a deposit by one day, Yellowbook apparently thinks I owe them money. Grrr, aargh.

Things that are good: my car looks like nothing happened (they got everything), Chase gave me back my APR, a new client who wanted to skip cleans read my email and is fine with biweekly cleaning now (and is very happy with me), I am doing my mom's move in clean on Friday and will make extra money (possibly Tues too), I sold some PartyLite gift certificates on eBay, and what else... Oh yeah, had nice dreams and my kitty was in them! We were making friends with a squirrel and a black cat, and she was being good. Of course, I still have to get through Crappy Wednesday and will need a Xanax that I just realized I don't have on me. Sheesh. Okay bye for now.

I am auctioning off a $100 PartyLite Gift Certificate. Starting bid is $51.04. Ends Friday evening!

Okay, so I am not getting any new calls for cleaning right now. This does not surprise me because people are vacationing like crazy and kids are home from school. In a way I am relieved because I am so exhausted I am not actually DOING 11 houses a week. I don't even know how many I'm actually cleaning. I am so bad right now I am wondering how I am going to make myself mow my lawn, and it needs it.

Anyway, so I rearranged my schedule to look more like two houses a day, and if I make sure to actually CLEAN two houses a day, it looks like my budget might be okay, at least for awhile. I still am not paying any estimated taxes, which ought to be interesting. Every Friday I make myself swear I am going to call an accountant on Monday, and by Monday I lose steam.

So, I rearranged my schedule, updated my budget, moved all optional stuff out of the way til July (including food!), which means I have no way of starting my guaifenesin protocol this week. It also means I will be $300 in the hole by Tuesday. And this time I cannot scrape it out of somewhere, like usual. I am racking my brains. I have some PartyLite gift certificates (like $400 worth) but it is always hard to get people to buy stuff, and it usual takes a week or two to get any money.

Anyway, I will keep chewing on it til I get an idea. I get pretty creative when it's like this.

So, anyway, oh, and my head hurts again and my right ear is bothering me again.

And ALYSSA, the cancer ridden kitty, has more energy than I do. It's pretty bad that I outsleep her. (She lifted her head up and looked at me right as I started typing about her. Creepy.)

Anyway.

Wawa's peppered turkey & bacon wrap (with Wisconsin cheddar & mayo) is worth every penny. Tastes like a real deli sandwich, & it's premaid.

Things that sound dirty but aren't: "I'm going to heat up my wood."

What the hell is going on with me? Did I crawl under a rock and die?

It sure feels like it.

I don't have any a lot of energy lately. I am no longer having good days. My FMS is at it's absolute worst so it has once again moved to the forefront of everything I do or write about. How boring. I still want to update my LJ, for me and you and the two family members who actually read it. So how about some bullet points!

* Item the First: There is a large tumor the size of my head in my brain causing a string of giant headaches that are making me the bitchiest person you know right now. Not even your sister-in-law is bitchier than me. Not your boss, not your teenager, not your neighbor across the street. No amount of Advil, Tylenol, or alcohol will put it to rest. So WATCH OUT.

* Number B: Leaving a new client's house in the absolute shittiest part of Allentown, we're talking the skin tag in the armpit of Allentown, I was parked in, as is the tradition of narrow one-lane, two-way, streets in this area. As in, a car was doubled parked in front of me, with NO DRIVER, and a car pulled up behind me, with the driver GETTING OUT. The dozen or so porch dwellers nearby were completely ignoring me. Attempting to reverse my way out of this mess through an even narrower side street, I backed into a fence and destroyed the left rear side of my car. It was fun. Might do it again soon. As soon as I'm done selling my body for paying the $500 deductible on this one. I count myself lucky that it was still daylight, and that I managed to get the hell out of there shortly thereafter.

* Part 3: While my dream of doing Something Bigger™ has not disappeared, it has been sadly put on the backburner while I deal with my incredibly frustrating energy problems. I am currently reading up on FMS and forming a game plan on how to best tackle it and feel better. I could bore you to tears with all the great stuff I am learning, and I probably will. Just warning you now. The Great Dream™ will happen once I have my old energy back, or as near to it as I can get. I am sad about it, though. :(

* Miscellany:
- Alyssa is potting training magnificently. she is on week 3 without a single accident. The toilet is her friend.
- I planted a Bloodgood Japanese Maple in front of my house. It is about 6 feet tall right now, and I am absolutely in love with it. I named it Anthony after my beloved sweetheart kitty who died suddenly at age 5.
- I am going camping at the shore (Wildwood, NJ) this weekend, and it will be my first Real Vacation™ of the year. I cannot wait!


That is more than enough all.

I'm planning on planting a Bloodgood Japanese Maple in my front yard next Monday. It is my first time planting a tree, and I am extremely excited. There is something very permanent about a tree. Even if I'm not here forever, the tree, hopefully, will be!

I still have one Dreamwidth invite code. Who wants it? If you already have an account there, please add me!

I have two Dreamwidth invite codes. Who wants one?

Happy birthday to me! As a gift to myself, I made a quiz for my friends. Good luck!

A sneaky snapshot of me with a friend, taken over the weekend. I'm on the left.

Back hurts, knees hurt, neck hurts, head hurts, legs hurt, hair hurts!!! I QUIT.

This may help explain what happens. I've crossed out the symptoms that I don't have.

Checking out the crossposting feature.

You will not find me at Dreamwidth under my LJ name. I grabbed karona instead, without the zero. Yay! Please add me there if you want. xoxo

Can someone send me a Dreamwidth invite code? I do not want to use kar0na. Thanks!
