I have figured out that I like looking at my recent journal entries because I like looking at that picture of Bette. She's really quite attractive you know.
I'm taking a break from cleaning for a bit, but I'm back to it shortly. I have to hang some clothes on the line, make food, clean the bathroom and vacuum. Then most of it is done, I will have another break then. I must remember the wipe down the chairs and tables on the verandah before bed though, otherwise the owner's will be clued in to the presence of cats by the little footprints all over the place. We have an inspection tomorrow. I hate them so much! But Scott has been brilliant. He's tidied the laundry SO well and helped me do the yard after I'd made the mega stick pile. Those poincianas drop so many branches! Bloody Joe had better get his arse into gear though.. so far he's swept the verandah and that's it. I must say, I'm starting to get sick of how he doesn't do anything around the house and just kinda sponges off other people.
I miss Kariiiiiiiiiiiii....
Less than two months til I'm in the USA now, yay! I am so sick of factory work but when I'm on the assembly line I just chant my little 'going away on December the 8th' mantra and that gets me through. I can't wait to get over there. I know Bay City is as boring as all hell, but Kari is there and so I will enjoy it tremendously. And I get to meet Josh, the cats, Ed the dog, and Kari's odd (slightly redneck) 'friends'. They'd better not start anything cos I won't put up with it! lol We're going to Connecticut to visit her family for two weeks too, over Christmas. Slightly nervous about that. I think her mother is a bit against me because she's scared Kari will want to move to Australia, which is even further away than they live now. I guess, considering she's her baby daughter, and they lived together for years and Josh lived there too for the first eight years of his life... she might have a point. But as a mum, doesn't she want her daughter to be happy? I mean, as opposed to making HER happy? But maybe she thinks that it's too big a risk and the potential to get hurt could be worse for Kari than the potential to be happy... Ah well. She hasn't met me yet. Maybe she'll be ok when she finds out I'm just a normal person, not some dingo-owning white kangaroo slave chicky.
Ok. I think I'm going to go clean now. Ugh!
