Drowning in Mess....

....and today is cleaning day! I'm hoping that having a clean house will help me feel more motivated to do....anything! It's weird, but lately I've just been in a fog of blah. I know yesterday it may have been because I didn't brew any coffee and I started my frikkin' period. (Sorry if that's TMI.) Anyhow, this is a special day! Alex and Maggie are at my parents' house and as soon as Rick gets back from killing a spider at his sister's place, we're going to CLEAN!!

I forgot to mention this yesterday, but September 19 is the day I quit smoking last year! Happy Non-Smoking Anniversary to me!! And tomorrow is my 31st birthday, but when I got a package from Rachel in the mail today, I just couldn't wait to open it......
I mean, WOW!!! Talk about an instant mood brightener! She is the bestest friend I have EVER had.....not just because she sends me lots of fabulous stuff, but because she knows JUST WHAT to send, know what I mean? She KNOWS me, she "gets" me, she knows my dirty secrets and loves me anyway. Actually, the vintage coffee pot in the middle that she decorated with shells and seaweed from her beach is filled with reasons she loves me....and I'm fighting not to bawl my eyes out right now! *deep breath*

Okay, now I must clean. But first I have to call our cable company and cancel our service since thier channel locks don't work and Jack keeps ordering porn. Oh, happy day!

Don't forget to leave me a pirate comment on the post below to be entered for a special prize! I promise you'll love it....just drop me a "Shiver me timbers, matey!" or a "Yo ho ho and a bottle o'rum!" since pirate talk makes me smile, and I'll do the drawing on my birthday! :)

So glad you are having an anniversary of that sort. I quit quite a few years ago, at first I couldn't even paint. But then a big commission came and I had to re-learn how to do everything without a cig. somewhere. Hurray for you. I love the freedom.
Got your beautiful card today and the sunny ATC along with your order. Your not too late. I've got everything sent but yours will go Mon.
Hugs,
Pam
p.s. cool stuff from Rach.
