Progress Made

1st draft... before changes
made...more to come
with final plans!
Got to finally meet with the architect on Friday and got some things cleared off the table.  Fun to sit in a coffee shop and sip on coffee while looking at some amazing drawings of what could be my future.  I have a better idea of my plans now, even with him adding things I will have to take off... I am sure.  I flip flopped his drawing to make more sense for me and I will get to met with the builder tomorrow.  All and all its moving ahead with some steam... although not fast enough for me really.  We have 15% down, if they keep in my budget... the architect is getting "excited" with his creativity lol, and I might have to hit him on the head.  Hoping to have final floor plans tomorrow and some idea of the cost.  I am sure I will have to make some adjustments so I can afford it, but still ready for some end results.

No Tolerance for Stupidity

People need to learn to love...
not tolerate,
not negotiate...
but love one another.  You can not have a christian heart and not love.
If you judge, ridicule or in anyway discriminate against someone because they do no believe in what you do...
then you are a sad...
hypercritical..
pathetic
excuse for a human being. 
Just saying!

Strange Thing This Grief

I lost my father in November.  Strange thing, this grief... Where did it come from?  Where does it go?  It shows up out of the blue and then lays doormet for weeks.  I don't doubt my love for him or how much he meant to me... or even the fact that I miss him all the time.  But I do feel weird that I am not struck by constant numbing grief that binds me to the point of incapacity.  I feel guilty for not feeling that way, yet I feel sane for it.  I knew what type of man he was and how he would want us to behave.  Maybe that is what I move to.  Maybe knowing that he would want us to all continue to live successful lives and enjoy our time with our family and friends is what has me motivated to move forward every day.  Maybe the thought of staying still scares me more.  Strang thing this this grief.

So today was a total waste of makeup!

I got up earlier than I wanted too... hitting that good ole snooze button 4 times and then extending my wake up to 30 minutes later by resetting my alarm.  Finally I get up and I get ready to go to my appointment.  Face washed, make up on... hair done, and looking good I might add.  Clothes on... WITH jewelry and off I go.  I get to the light where I turn to reach my destination and that is when I receive a text that says..."I need to reschedule."  Not a phone call but a text!   WHO DOES THAT!?!?  I mean if you know you are not prepared, call the day before, don't wait and do it 20 minutes before the appointment.  Now, I have a wasted day ahead of me, and I could have stayed out of town longer!  Rescheduling needs to be done and the rest of the week I will have company! So pissed.

Too Much to know what to do with myself

UGH!  I lost my password to my blog account and then they changed everything thing and it is complicated!  I thought about changing my blog to a different place, but "ain't nobody got time for bronchitis"!  Sorry couldn't resist!

So much as happened and all if it note worthy, but I have no idea where to begin!  The thunder game?  My mother being sick?  Getting a new storm cellar?  Moving my daughter, trying to figure out both my boys!.... Oh well I can write about all of that in due time... but for now, I will be toying with the new settings of this blog and see if I get a handle for it.  If not, I might switch... who knows!

Also, I have decided to say the word that pops into my mind even if it is wrong!  I wonder how many people will look at me wierd.  (Like you are now)...

As for now, I have to hit the hay!  Tomorrow is a big day for me...  I am going to see if the plans for my daycare look anything like what I would like to have.  I am sure it won't, since in reality, I have no idea what I really want it to look like from the outside.  So until I can sit down with a complaint or a story... adios!
