30 Day Challenge: Day 1- My Relationship Status

This card explains my life pretty well.  I'm not saying that all my past relationship were awful.  Only one was seriously dangerous. The rest just didn't work out. It takes two to tango, right?  I have nothing to tell about my current relationship status. I  don't have a significant other, but I do not consider myself available at this time.  Does that make sense?   I will say, it is great that I am not allowed to have pets in my apartment complex, or I would already have started my crazy cat lady collection.  I do care for a cute stray cat when he comes around.  Samantha named him DJ Meow-Mix (if you didn't know that). 

This will be me someday, maybe

Saturday evening I went out for drinks and the UFC fight.  We had a great time.  I ran into an old bar buddy Patrick from 10 years ago.  It was great to catch up and meet his lady.  I saw my friend Eddie Estrada and spoke to him for a few minutes.  I danced my ass off, and loved it.  It's been a long time since I danced. I love dancing like fool, ha ha.  Well, we were a bit too drunk to drive to Oakley (our original destination), so we planned on taking a taxi or walking to my place.  We decided to walk, which is no big deal for me, I've done it lots of times.  Of course I am the one who steps onto uneven pavement and hurt my right ankle.  Luckily I was wearing some cute cowboy boots and not heels. If I was wearing heels I would have seriously fractured my ankle.



Sunday morning I woke up in pain with some swelling.  By Sunday night it was really swollen and I could not walk.  I was getting pretty worried.  I told myself I would rest and wait it out till Tuesday morning.  If it was still very swollen and painful I would go to the doctor.

  

Sunday morning, R ankle a little swollen

Sunday Afternoon, R ankle getting bigger

Oh I also walked (hobbled) to the store and back.  I was so excited to move around.  I was going crazy laying in bed, not allowed to move. I am very active and can't sit still.  All I can think about is hiking, walking places, and dancing.  Please ankle hurry up and heal. I want to move around.

Monday evening my friend JW came by with a brace and a wrap.  He helped my wrap my ankle up and I left it on for a while.  I took it off to sleep and I rewrapped my ankle Tuesday morning.  My ankle was looking better and a little bruised.  I kept it wrapped most of the day.  When I decided to go downstairs instead of lounging in my bed.  I removed the wrap and used the brace instead.

Tuesday morning, looking better

The kitty decided I needed to share my pillow

This morning when I woke up, my foot and ankle looked so much better.  I'm wearing the brace today and may wrap my foot tonight before bed. I did notice I have a hard time staying comfortable while sleeping. I kept shifting my legs and making my ankle tilt, causing pain.  Maybe wrapping it will stop me from hurting myself.

Wednesday

Did I learn my lesson? Yep, I'll be more careful next time walking home drunk.  Yes we could have took a taxi, but what fun is that?  I love a good adventure, drunk or sober.  I gotta have something to laugh about later.

Dear French Bread

Dear French Bread,
     Why do you tempt me so?
You are my favorite bread.
I can't help but to love you.
You're so delicious with my soup or pasta
But you're the best on you're own.
As i sit here on the bus, i cant stop eating you.
By the time we get home, you will be gone.
And i will be fat.

Haha ... i knew i should have just passed the bread by, but noooo. Now im gonna be a fatass.

FML, but not really.

This photo to the right explains how my week has been going perfectly. To say I have had a rough week would be pretty accurate.

I got hurt snowboarding last weekend. It was my first time, but some jerkface knocked me down, and then I got hit by another person. I didn't think I was hurt that bad and was able to go dancing the same night. As the days went by the pain got worse and I started getting dizzy and nauseous. So I went to the ER just to be safe. After being in the ER for 2 1/2 hours i was told I had a pinched nerve and some bruising but I would be fine after a few days. AWESOME! Well maybe not, a classmate asked if I had been sick this winter yet. Uhm winter just started, and I was a little sick in September, so I think I'm good. Wrong! I woke up Friday with a fever and body aches. Good job classmate, you jinxed me. So here I am sick in bed. I've been studying and trying to think of things to blog about.

.........

Wait, back up. Did I tell you I started school? Maybe in a recent post? Well I started taking classes at a local Adult Education school. I entered into their Medical Secretary program. It's 40 weeks and classes are 5 weeks long. I like the fact the classes are short because they will keep my interest and I learn better in fast paced courses. I started 11.19.2012 YAY! I have already finished one course. Yes I finished one in less than 2 weeks, it was easy computer basic skills. The computer classes are self paced and once you are done with one you move on to the next one. Perfect! It will give me plenty of time in the end to work on things I suck at like ten key (200 strokes per minute) and typing (50 wpm). Now I can type pretty well and do ten key as well. But this program makes you do it the way you should, not like I do, almost never using my pinkies... oopsy. So anywho, the Instructors are great. I have met some nice ladies in my classes and in the "Student Lounge".  The school was once an elementary school. I believe it was the first in town. It's pretty neat how the now City has turned it into an Adult Ed and high school on one campus. The high school is more of a continuation school, but I dont think we use that term anymore. So far I am really enjoying the classes and I'm excited to participate. Unfortunately I have already missed two days because of being ill and hurting my back. I don't want to miss anymore days. So I better get well by tomorrow night darn it.

So the week was good but at the same time LIFE tried to f**k it up. Try a little harder next time LIFE.

P.S. I need to post the few pictures I took last weekend so maybe i'll do that in a few.

Lent Days 22-24

I took some time off from over stimulation. I did get online to check emails, and read news. Some how yesterday I got stuck watching literal music videos after reading a music news blog about them. I think I watched all of them. There was some that were super awful, but it didn't really matter I still laughed. Here is a link to a literal Total Eclipse of the Heart.

Lent is going pretty well. After my psychotic masturbation frenzy I was fine. So it seems I can only go a couple of weeks before I need to release the sexual pressure. I wonder if guys go through that? I have been drinking a lot of tea and i think I need to switch to decaf because I am having a serious time getting to sleep. My time and days are way off.  I think this weekend I will only drink water and hot green tea. I need to give my body a break. I started the Body Rock exercises and have been doing a walk/jog intervals for 30 minutes everyday. That Body rock program is no joke. i was hurting after four minutes and then after that Samantha wanted me to workout with her using my Kathy Smith DVD. I bought it at Big Lots for $2.00, but Walmart is selling it for around $6.00. I cannot keep up with Kathy Smiths 80's workout. Samantha loves it and can keep up. I can get about half way through one of her workouts then I have to take a break. I remember when I could do 2 or more of the Richard Simmons Sweatin' to the Oldies. Oh, now I want that, can you still buy the set? Kathy Smith's video is pretty good. It has 3 different workouts on one DVD. It was worth the $2.00.

Okay well I'm off to bed. Good Night!

Lent: Day 14 what I did today.

Only day number 14? I have a long way to go.

Today went something like this...
1. made a new cleaning list
2. made a new chore calendar for the kids.
3. bought some more water and crackers.
4. sat in silence, listening to the world around me :)
5. fed the birdies again and one was peeking into the house.
6. chatted with Ryan & Henry
7. played Farmville & Cafe World
8. Googled images for : broken hearts, O face, scary food, and lolcats.
9. looked at the mess in my room and thought ' Damn it, my room never stays clean'.
10. wrote a list of what I want to blog about. {Working on them now}

Did some cleaning and trying to figure out what to do with everything that keeps ending up in my room. It's like my room is the junk yard of the house. I'll figure something out. I had a headache most of the day, but it wasn't too bad. I was still able to function. I was in a weird mood today, a sad, lonely, I hate the world day. Which is why I googled weird stuff. I was looking for a pick me up. It didn't work. It's just one of those sad little days. Thank goodness it's almost over.

Fixing a Broken heart.

WTH? So not eating that.

poor kitteh

I should be cleaning, but....

oohh scary

I have too much on my mind today. I have been cleaning, I swear. If you saw my room right now you would scream in terror. The dust bunnies may attack, I'm not sure if they will, but you never know.  I started my Spring Cleaning today in my room. I am about half way done since I didn't start until 2:00pm. All this week is conference week at Turner and I am watching my neighbors kids after school for about an hour. So I decide to wait until after the kids left to start cleaning. I already went through my clothes in my room the other day. I still have to get the ones I packed away and sort through them. I even cleaned my computer inside and out; transfered files to the external, cleaned the tower, keyboard, and dusted the desk. It must have been a while because it took me 2 hours to do that. Yikes!
  Though I am cleaning and all, I feel out of place. I keep trying to focus on the cleaning as what it is. For some reason I feel like I am purging my life with this cleaning and letting go of a part of me. It's weird to explain the feelings I have as I remove some things from my home and my life. All I am doing is cleaning, nothing different than before, I just feel different this time around. It's as if I am turning the page to a new chapter in my life. I did throw away things I have held on to for so long. I really didn't need them, but I couldn't let them go. I don't feel a sense of loss, those item did bring back memories that were lost and maybe thats where the feelings are coming from. The music may not be helping either. I love Colbie Caillat. She has a fabulous voice and great music. Her music usually sooths my mood. Today I think she may be making me feel sentimental. I don't like it.
  As I sit at my desk typing these words I am laughing at myself and my feelings.Thinking: Ryan would say I'm thinking too much, and yes I am, aren't I?... I just realized I am showing the world how mentally unstable I can be; haha thats okay I don't mind. I'm crazy, but not THAT crazy, yet.

So I am done with my break. I needed one after removing the mattresses from my bed and vacuuming the floor, bed frame, and mattresses. Those things are heavy! Plus it was that time of year to flip the mattress. Now onto reorganizing the rest of the furniture and dust. I also need to organize Ryans DVDs and and games.

Oh by the way....

THATS ONE BIG DUST BUNNY
