well the best thing I can is that I have slept really well saturday night AFTER taking a 3 hour nap until 9.  I was supposed to go and do something with scott, but I had to diss him because I was so tired.  Then I went to sleep and had a bad dream where we got into a fight because he wouldn’t take me home when my car broke down.  WEIRD.

so anyway this weekend, Rich came up to help me get the house ready.  We painted the bedrooms (looks 2000 times better) and did a bunch of hodge podge things.  It is a really old house and in the ‘country’ so I expect to have some critters.  I may need a cat after all.  I haven’t seen anything inside, but we sprayed while my stuff isn’t in there as a preventative.  Rich said I will prolly have to on a regular basis.   We went all over the property in the daylight to check everything out (and got 2 ticks in the process).  Rich is concerned that I am afraid, and he’s right.  But it’s just a different living situation that I have ever done (living alone on a house on 5 acres).  So far there is a peacock that lives in the yard, deer, ticks, lizards, frogs…  yeah I’m a lil scared.  But I told him it would get better.  Not to mention, while we were there painting, 2 different random people came over and knocked on the door…. yeah that scared the crap out of me. 

But everytime I’m nervous, I just remind myself how close Cook is.

Here Goes.

I had not looked at any paint samples before Rich came up.  I told him we would just go and get some when he got there.  we walked in Home Depot, I picked out the brown I wanted immediately (within 20 seconds) and walked up to the counter.  Rich stared at me.  Paid for the paint, walked out.  He said I’m flabbergasted by you, it took me a month to decide on paint and you walk in, pick, and go?  You always know what you want.

I DO always know what I want.  I may not GET it, but I always KNOW.

I rode Miss yesterday.  She was good.  I’m gonna try and get back on her today.  May walk Cook around.  Depends on how her cut looks.  I don’t want to reopen it.  I may give her another few days off.
