Monday was… well, just a Monday.
Tuesday – This was the start, followed by a mostly depressing visit to my lawyer. Chapter 7 would mess up my mom’s credit, Chapter 13 isn’t worth filing for me due to having less than $15k credit card debt, so basically selling the house is my only option. On the plus side he did spread the word to his investor friend to pass on about my house. I went to Fry’s afterwards and got a 320GB external hard drive for $134, and a $20 1GB compact flash card. After that I went to BJ’s to treat myself to a brownie sundae, which tasted wonderful. I also checked Fry’s, Best Buy and Target for the headphones I want, but no one seems to carry them. My pirate brought me flowers when I got home which really helped pick me up, and they’re gorgeous too. I stayed up too late though and ended up getting cranky.
Wednesday morning I got in late, and started trying to back up my laptop to the external drive. And instead of waiting till I was done, it decided to die. So Meow is dropping off my laptop for me at the repair place tonight, and I get to pray that they can save my data. At least the repairs should be covered under my Apple Care, so I only have to pay for the data recovery. They’re closed on the weekends though, so I won’t find out till next week. Then toward the end of the day I ended up arguing with the punk ass pirate which made my tummy and head ache in addition to my shoulders aching. Dance class helped some and then I went home to bed. I woke up with foot cramps though and had to take a hot bath and then ended up reading till I fell asleep.
I’ve gotten in to work about 2 hours late Thursday and today. It’s been really hard to focus, but I have been managing to get some work done. Tonight the pirate and I are going back to Santa Rosa, and tomorrow we’re going to hang out with my cousins and then see my mom play her flute in her church talent show.
Sunday is just the Safeway.com delivery and rest and chores. I’d like to finish getting the den unpacked and reorganized now that I have 2 more rolling storage carts. And if I need more I can swing back by ACE for them.
I also want to find a way to hang my Christmas ornaments from the ceiling of the den, they’d make a nice display and it would save a lot of storage space. I was thinking first of frames with fishing lined around them, but now I’m thinking some sort of netting would be easiest and cheapest, along with some screw in ceiling hooks.
Ooh, that’s a good idea! That would be much sturdier and easier to work with than loose netting I think. Thanks!
How about chicken wire spray-painted the same color as your ceiling? Then you can tack it to the ceiling in sheets, and hang the ornaments from it.
