this morning I went into ashley's room at 1015 and woke her up! she was so cute! so I was like psssssttt a few times trying to be nice about waking her but she tricked me because she was awake so she popped up and roared! I was scared.
we ate breakfast with the kitties and then went to the oceanfront. at first we just wrote down some numbers to call, then we stopped at 2 realtors and got listings for the area. I mean, we did a lot for just a few hours but I can just see all the crap we are going to have to do. it's like everyday my mind sees things as a little more impossible. it's not really like that. I don't know it's just hard to stay optimistic when I don't feel like I have control. It's hard. I can't wait for my mom to come rescue me and help me move all my crap. honestly, I think I'm just going to end up doing all the packing during the 2 weeks she is here. I mean, wtf. I don't know. I am starting to do morning bike rides with jason. just started today. it's going to be fuuunnn and healthy! now I am going to stop thinking about hard things that I have to do and start doing work!
I'm thinking of interviewing Lucero for the next persistence. it's hard to think of questions, though. so if I think of enough questions, I'll do it. but if not, I won't. It's just an idea and I thought it'd be cool to ask all of them who their favorite ninja turtles are. then I was thinking and maybe they grew up before that... they are like 30something... but I have a couple of other questions I've thought of.
Everyday I become more happy about staying here. Yesterday I saw my old neighbor, Mrs. Baggett, who rides her bike everyday and walks everyday with her doggy robin. She's been doing that since I was a youngster and she is really old so it does wonders. She made me smile at that moment and say to myself, maybe I am meant to be here for a while longer. Plus, with the sun coming out more, I have been outside more and I do enjoy the area and the people. I can fog my own thoughts sometimes. a lot of times.
Terry and Hank make me happy to be staying here as well. Terry is just so nice and so is Hank. I think I should be more appreciative of the opportunities I have made for myself and especially opportunities that others have handed to me.
this has become a little more insightful than I had expected. but I have to mention the biggest thing that makes me happy to be here and that's Jason. sometimes it feels too good to be true. well, a lot of times actually.
I am so excited for asheville. I need to get something extra special for my mommy. too bad my pockets are tight lately or I'd buy her something expensive. it's always more fun to be creative, though.
