good god its thursday!
I can't believe how fast this week has gone.
I have had time to work on the sweater(5 rows so far this week), finish my order on my cabinets and pay for them (that was an adventure in itself), see "Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit", and spend some time with my sweetie. The movie was great, partly because it was the first movie I have gone to see since I broke my butt that wasn't agonizingly painful, but also because it was very funny. I hope I never cease to be amazed at some folk's creativity. I used to go to an animation film festival every year when I lived in Boulder and always enjoyed it immensely. Something about the way my mind would boggle at the creative ability to come up with these crazy themes. I am a creative person but of a different sort, I suppose. Such the realist.
Yesterday I went directly from work to the Home Depot to finallize my cabinet order and pay for it so it could be ordered. This is how it came to be. Sept 25 I heard from my designer at Home Depot, she was waiting to hear from the installers regarding some last minute changes that needed to be made due to the way the plumbing is hooked up. She promised to call soon. I hadn't heard from her until Tues, when I got a letter in the mail from her dated 9-30-05. She claimed to be trying to reach me by phone for quite a while. My phone at my Apt having been disconnected, she called my cel phone. Her claim was that the number rang and rang, no-one answered and voice mail never picked up. Hrumph, says I. My phone works just fine. I looked at my call history and found one phone call from her number on 9-30-05. I checked my voice mail and she didn't leave a message. Hrumph again. Oh well, I will come in Wed immediately after work. I get there, we chat, we finish the layout. We go over installation, we finalize the installation plans, we finalize the dollar amount. I say "Okay where do I pay? I want to get this ball rolling." We go to the service desk and wait until the cashier has enough time to tell me that my check is not accepted by their "approval service" I call the service and they tell me that because I have a low check number and it is such a large dollar amt that they didn't approve my check. thphthphthphthphthph!!! I go to the bank, get a cashier's check and go back to pay. Whew! That only took 2.5 hours!
Then I went home to do some de-stress knitting. And I watched Lost.
Today I am just convinced that my boss hates me and wants me to go away. I couldn't do anything right all day long, spinning my wheels so to speak. Very frustrating!
Maybe I need medication. Maybe I just need to keep along the weaning my self off of "white foods". I have had very little sugar this week. I was weak today and had a small cookie, but I didn't enjoy it. No really, I am not kidding, it wasn't very yummy at all. Next is to eliminate all the white flour again. I have been better without the sugar, but not as good as I was when I was totally off all processed food. I will get there again. This time I intend to keep it up. Experiment over with going back and forth. It takes a while to feel the effects once I start eating white flour, but they show up eventually. It took a little over a month before I was undeniably aware that my health had deteriorated again. Well, stop beating yourself up Rita, you are on the upward side of the hill again.
