ZOOMING around in my head. Sometimes, that's what it feels like when i'm manic. You have a head FULL of racing thoughts, and it's so hard to get ahold of any of them.
Right now, i'm thinking about work, and how bad i miss it sometimes. I'm thinking about trying to expand the business i've already got. I'm getting excited for the classes i'm going to start taking come next month. I'm thinking about all the things i need to get done that i just don't feel like doing. I'm thinking about plans for things in the future, and trips i'd like to take. I have a list of places i want to take the girls, and places i'd like for Ruben and I to be able to go without the girls for our anniversaries.
Today, i have to run over to the store and pick up Ivy's snack for her class tomorrow, Rice cereal for Desiree to put in her milk (that's the only way she doesn't get an upset stomach and a nasty diaper) and maybe pick up a few little things that i think of that we need so we have less to pick up when we go for the actual groceries tomorrow. I've already got most of the groceries we will need for this week. We are just shy a couple dinners and lunch stuff. That's not horrible. So when i get ivy from school, we will run over and take care of that so we don't wait too long.
Then i want to get the house finished. We STARTED it this morning, but never got it finished. I'm not feeling too hot right now, so it's hard to keep the motivation going. I'm taking a break, and hopefully this afternoon i can get it done after we run to the store. There really isn't that much that needs to be done in the main part of the house, so it shoudln't take TOO mcuh longer to get done.
Then tomorrow, if i can convince Ruben to help me, we will get in there and get ALL the laundry sorted and put up where it goes. There's a bit that we've left from the last couple weeks, and it's starting to pile up again, which pisses me off.
Wednesday i go clean out at James' house. I'll leave to do that as soon as i get Ivy to school. And probably drive the city streets to get there. That will use a bit more gas but won't freak me out as bad. And i'm betting it won't take THAT long to do that. It doesn't take too long to get in and out of their house, so that way i can get it clean and get out. Since he's a friend, and it only takes about an hour to clean, i get 10 bucks a week from him. At least, that's what his wife agreed to pay me now. For a while it was 20 bucks a week. She's just pissy that i'm cleaning up after their room mate too, instead of just the two of them. I can understand that, but it's just frustrating for me. That ten is probably all going to go to gas, but whatever. At least i'll get out of the house for a while, and help a friend out, which makes me feel pretty good.
Then Thursday Ruben gets paid, and we have a few bills that come due. But hopefully this will be the last month for a while that we will have to pay parts of the bills late. It's frustrating that we have to be late on anything at all. Especially when - for so long - i was paying the bills two weeks ahead of time at the house. Maybe things will settle down a bit after the first of the year. At least with income tax we can get caught up again, which will be a HUGE relief. And MAYBE, just maybe, by then we will hear something about my car accident settlement. I'm not betting on that, but hey, a girl can dream.
Then Friday, i don't have plans to do ANYTHING that we don't just really really want to do. Depending on the weather, we might go do something outside. Maybe at the park, or the water canal. But chances better that we will just stay aroudn the house, straighten it up a bit, and just relax.
Saturday morning, i'm kinda hopeing that Ruben wakes up super super early again and we can go have a good day walking down around bricktown and downtown. I really enjoy doing things like that, and we always find somethign that we didn't notice before. There are some really beautiful places down there that are so off the beaten path that so few really pay attention to them anymore. And i love to find those places and take photographs of them. Makes me feel good to remember something like that. AND the weather is supposed to be pretty. Maybe rainy, but if it is then we might just go for a drive or something. I just know that i want to get out of the house for a while saturday if possible.
Right now, i'm gonna lay down and relax for just under two hours until it's time to go get Ivy from school, Then we will hopefully get our errands finished quickly and we can get back home and have plenty of time to get thigns done around here before Ruben gets up. Here's hopeing.
