Hiding Away
I am hiding out in my office today. We have been remodeling & now they are shifting us around so they can paint. I even had to pack all of my stuff yesterday. That is no fun. I can't complain too much, because eventually (after a week & a half) I'll be making my home in a bigger office with a beautiful view of a lake. I guess I can handle temporary suffering for the greater good. :) - See what a selfless person??
So far this year, I have been focusing on my main list of New Year's Resolutions, which are:
1 - Go Jogging at least 4 mornings a week
2 - Cut out refined sugar & white flour from my diet (mostly)
3 - Get a pedicure once a month (we wear a lot of sandals in Florida)
4 - Scan all of our photos
5 - Create photo albums similar to scrapbooks, but using graphic software
By the way, number three is harder than it sounds. Besides finding the time, I hate calling salons to make appointments because they never speak English. I also have to work at getting my hair trimmed more often (same problem). Who wants to get their haircut by someone that has no idea what you are asking??? My worst experience was three years ago when I went in for a little trim & walked out with a short bob. Most of my mono-lingual English speaking friends experience the same thing here. Ok - enough of this tangent. I just need to work on my Spanish. That should be resolution #6. Good thing Steve bought me one of those Learn Spanish CD sets.
I guess I should cut this off. They are eyeballing my furniture. Soon, we'll all be crammed into a few rooms for a week. We'll see if anyone ends up dead. Good thing I grew up in a large family & can ignore lots of noise.

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
