I have four days off starting tomorrow. I'm moving to a better place. It's my b-day this weekend. And last weekend I went to the coast and hubby left the weekend to all my choices... my b-day present.
Also am grateful that we have a car and independance enough to move on our own. It sucks begging for help always for everything. So good to be able to do our own chores!
hehe. going to a better place. no, i'm not dying, not yet. though the new place doesn't have a/c so i might! it sure has been hot for oregon, huh? i'm staying in eugene, moving to a different neighborhood is all. I wish i was leaving eugene, but hubby loves it here so... what can i do? *L*
Thanks for the birthday wishes. 25 seems kinda depressing, but then i think about my hubby hitting 30 next February and I cheer back up. Does that make me evil???
And just to make sure we arent related somehow - does the last name of Downey mean anything to you?
I ask because I have an aunt and uncle in Eugene that have grandkids your age that I have never met. This would be weird. But would not be the first time.
PM me if you don't want to discuss your lineage in open forum.
hehe. doesn't ring a bell. the big family name that relates me to everyone in oregon is raisor. scary scary.
c.g. is so scary that i went to a family function for MY family, and met one of my husbands distant relatives (married into the family thank you very much, my husband and i are not related!!). It was a little scary though.
There's something to be happy and grateful for - I'm not my husbands cousin LMAO
Ferret: I'll keep my fingers crossed on the interview.
I am grateful to have an understanding son (age 12). He knew that my weight was causing other health problems, and he was a real trooper (scared trooper) when I had the gastric bypass surgery.
I'm grateful that I get to see my vocational rehab counselor today about college....so HOPEFULLY...my tuition will go through this evening before the deadline tomorrow. Meaning I'll be back to school in a few weeks! And I'm really, really gratful that the yucky fever blister I got on Thursday is going away! I know thats a gross thing to mention but there is nothing like getting one of those to make me feel ugly & embarrassed to go out in public. I had a whole houseful of friends here this weekend & felt like a bit of a leper.
I'm thankful that the move is over. old house is clean as it's gonna get, and i'd better get my deposit! new place is coming together, only have a little bit left of the bedroom and the office and livingroom to get organized. Not too bad for 3 1/2 solid days of work. And I'm also grateful that even with short bouts of shouting and crankiness, no major fights ensued. I'm so proud of us!
Yay he got the job! and all my family is around right now so i'm feelin pretty ecstatic...not to mention andy talked about setting a wedding date the other night
Happy Birthday!
If I might ask? Staying in Oregon, Staying in Eugene? Moving to a better place sounds like you are dying - you're not, right?
