Miscellaneous Sunday

A picture of my shoes in the closet. This isn't all of them, but 99%. I count 31 boxes/pairs that show.





I'm thinking of Tara and Steve again. I thought about them 7 or 8 times yesterday. It made me smile all day.

I went to my house that I'm trying to sell and cleaned up the back yard yesterday. I was there from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Lots of weeds, trash/leaves/branches to pick up. She had used some slate pieces to make a walkway. They had broken up into pieces. She also had a pool and left the bare soil. My yard slants down so they had leveled the ground and left a drop-off. I love being outside and I do like gardening and physical work but I'm not in shape for this long of a haul. When I got home last night I immediately showered. When I sat down every inch of my body ached - my fingers, especially my thumbs; my forarms; my shoulders; my back etc.; even my toes. I'm living on Aleve today.

I'm in panic mode because I only have two more weekends to do all the stuff I need to do before surgery. The other two will be spent in CO, AZ, NM. That's a good thing but I have way too much to do here. I figure I'll be incapable of anything other than the slightest activity for 4 weeks. The first weeks I will be on some good drugs!

Dateline is doing a segment on Tom Cruise tonight. I can't help but watch. Then I've become hooked on the West Wing because of Jimmy Smits; then Desperate Housewives, then Grey's Anatomy. This is my TV night.

While working in the yard yesterday I remembered a dream that I had about Carey a month ago. I was at my house and my neighbor was outside. This neighbor and I were fairly close for 4 years or more. Then she became quite hostile. That it itself is a long story. Anyway, she had another girl with her. This girl proceded to tell me that she was from SF. After talking for sometime I realized it was CAREY. Well the neighbor didn't like that I knew her (she never handled anyone having a friend other than her). She started yaking to Carey not to talk to me etc. I kept trying to tell Carey that my neighbor is crazy batty. But they had been friends (in my dream) since HS and Carey was like, *shrug* I can't help it right now but we'll talk in the box later. That crazy neighbor. I was pissed.

I'm going to try to work hard this week to make sure everything is ok at work before my vacation. And I need to get my personal stuff caught up and organized. I'll be hit and miss for a couple days.

Oh here comes Tom on TV. Later
