Today was a work day, both at my day job and here.  I had a few things that I need to take care before I left this morning and I still have a few things to do tonight after I write this.

I did get a few things done at my day job.  I like it when I do that……finishing a project gives me great satisfaction.  =)  I’m simple girl like that.

When I got home, the rain had cooled it down enough to open the doors and shut off the air.  I love times like that, unfortunately I will be turning it on so we can sleep, we like it chilly for sleeping.  But it was warm and humid enough that we jumped into the pool while dinner was cooking.  It felt good.  That is about the only thing I will miss weather wise from Florida………the pool time.

Other wise I’m just working on some store stuff, since I got all of our stuff done.  I’ve been trying to enter things as they come since I finally got it all caught up and with the move…….it would be a huge nightmare to fall behind.

Better get back to work so I can head to bed.

I got tired of the office…………..been in there all day and I had to just get out of there. I had wanted to work on the patio but all that I wanted to work on was on my external and I’m not dragging that out there. I did get some time in the pool.

Thankfully the only errand I had was to the bank, but I still didn’t want to do that. My next day off is nothing but doctor appointments and that sucks.

I started to work on a bunch of pictures that I haven’t posted for my family. I started to organize it on my laptop. The problem is there are some pictures that I made galleries of and posted the links on my blog, but I never updated on the web pages, so now I need to figure out what I have. I’ve also been neglectful of my external. When I made the galleries, I put them on the server but never actually updated it on my external……doh!

So once Harold is done with his uploading & I’m done making my galleries, I’m just going to totally download everything from the server. Then instead of putting the pictures on my hard drive, I’ll just use my external like I should’ve been. I know it started when Harold and I were sharing an external, because I hated trying to get time to use since he needed to use it all the time. Since I have my own, it really shouldn’t be an issue. But damn it is a mess right now…..

Just a few observations & vents, I know that my grammar and spelling isn’t always correct, but I can make myself be understood pretty well. What I don’t get is people who write on boards in extreme street slang……it isn’t even English. I try to read their posts and my head hurts and I want to just slap them and scream “speak common English you sound like an idiot!” And they are people from the US, not folks who English is a second language to them. Hell, people who are trying and struggling to learn English do a hell lot better job on being understood then the morons with the street slang.

Then there are the morons who do not under the concept of a paragraph….holy cow! My head spins. It is to the point that I skip any of their writings. Who knows, maybe they have something insightful to say but you won’t know it by the way they compose it. It is horrible.

I try to be understanding, that not everyone has been lucky in their education and not be a “snob” about it, but damn this is basic stuff an 8th grader would know. You don’t have to have a college education or even a HS education for those basics. Everytime I see posts that are either nothing but street slang or a long one with no paragraphs, I’m so tempted to post and say “have you ever heard of English or paragraphs, you sound like a moron?!?”

On to other things, it is getting harder and harder to head into work when I only get 2 days off and that I don’t have the responsibilities that I had ownership of.  But that will be changing here in less then 2 weeks.  Hell, I’ll be off for 10days because of my feet……..I’ll probably be going crazy by the time I start back.  But I think I’m moving into “it’s time to move on” stage.  Yet, I still worry about my store.
Lets see if I can get anything else done…….not…time to chill.

Today started with the foot doctor. It is official, I’m getting surgery to help my ligament. We are doing both feet so it is taken care of before we move and under my works insurance. I’m so not looking forward to going through with it, but I’m looking forward to getting this over with. Of course, it is not going to be at the same place as Harold’s. So I need to make sure that it is all in network….and figure out where the hell we are going, since we have lived here for 3 yrs, never had a need for a hospital…..yada, yada…….

I did get my nails and toes done. I wanted to enjoy them while I can. I have my pre-op next Monday and I’ll find out if I can keep my nails for the surgery. I know that I will need to remove my polish from my toes so they keep an eye on my oxygen level. I had them do a blue/purple/white marble thing. Looks really cool.

I got some work done. No where as much as I should. I just couldn’t get my mind on it.

But Harold and I did take some time for ourselves and jumped into the pool. It felt good to be floating around the pool for little while and feel the sun.

Hopefully the only place that I need to go to tomorrow is the bank……..I just want to do my thing and enjoy the fresh air…….maybe a bike ride if we get up early enough……I can still do that without it hurting my feet too much…..we’ll see.

With the hotter temps I’ve been craving a lot of veggies…….especially tomatoes….so I picked me up some cherry ones….mmm…tasty, between those and the pepperonici……
