Where I randomly complain

Packing is not a fun thing.
I need to get things packed up!
But we are still using our stuff.
If I wait until we are about to move then I'll have too much to do with too little time.
What a conundrum.
_____

I am having a lot of trouble with pain.
joints
muscles
head
It's doing me in.
I had high hopes for a positive Lyme test
(yes, you read that right)
but nope.
Negative.
So why am I in pain?
_____

I still have a kidney stone just waiting to come out and hurt me.
I'm scared of it.
_____

My recently purchased fat jeans don't fit anymore.
What?
You'd think this would be enough to entice me to go to the gym
or stop eating
But, when I wake up in pain, all plans go out the window.

It's a lose/lose situation.
or gain...whatever.
You know what I mean.

I'm starting the whole "posting things to craigslist" thing.

I bought a dryer for my new house and the door opens sideways rather than up and down.
I really like that little table the door forms when it opens down...
easier to load the dryer.
That's what I get for buying online and long distance.
_____

I recently had my memory tested.
The results are:
I have a bad memory!
Wait, I knew that.

Funny story (not really a complaint):

We had the Apple Blossom festival this weekend.  
Carter marched with the band as usual.  
I really wanted to get a picture since it will be his last one before we move so I got there early, camera in hand and was watching carefully.... and never saw him!  
How do I miss my own kid playing the drums?  
So I actually ran ahead and tried to look for him again.  
Nope.  
I went to the end of the parade and as they came around the corner, there he is with his drums.  
I could not figure out how I missed him.
He told me he was watching me run around and look for him and wondering why I was such a goof. 
(I don't think he used the word goof but I can't remember his actual word...
see previous item re: memory)
Then after more questioning he admitted that he switched with someone and was actually walking backwards in front of the drum line when I was looking for him. Not playing a drum! 
Ha! 
I’m not going crazy.  
And it turns out I got a picture of him, accidentally!  
There he is walking backwards. 
(He's the backwards one on the left of the picture) 
You can barely tell its him but I take what I can get.

I am the QUEEN of little notebooks.
As I open drawers and pack random things I am finding little notebooks everywhere.
filled with lists, random thoughts, plans, goals, journal entries, diet logs
you name it, I have written it in a tiny notebook and then promptly put it in a drawer and forgotten about it.

_____

Ok I'm done.
for now

  2. Find a good Doctor of Oriental Medicine, preferably one that's from China. I've had such good luck with a wonderful Chinese doctor here. She's diagnosed and treated me for 5+ years now.

  4. The pain thing is weird! I wonder what it could be? I'm so sorry!

    I wish I had a dryer that opened top to bottom so I could stop dropping clean clothes on my dog hair gross laundry room floor.

    Just pack it all up! If you need it borrow it from a friend.
