I've mopped myself into a corner...

I've mopped myself into a corner... so...  Here I am for a few.  😝

I have not been around social media much this week.  I've been really busy around the house.  Like, literally working from the time I get off work until I go to bed, (sometimes until some crazy hour like 4 am.)

I have friends coming in from out of town this week so of course I want the house to be clean.  Generally, my house is not gross... at least I don't think so.  I can't sleep when it's cluttered and nasty so there is just a certain level of neatness that has to be maintained around here.  But of course it can always be better.

Somewhere in the midst of me getting my house "company ready" it just stopped being enough for me.  So... I've been moving things around, organizing closets... hell, I even painted my hall.  I feel very motivated at the moment, and accomplished, and I like the way things are shaping up.  I have had a really keen eye for using the space I have over the last few days.  I might post a photo of my blanket closet.  😁  I completely impressed myself with how much stuff I fit in there.  Neatly, might I add - and I can get to everything in it pretty easily so that's a plus.  😃

I would say that I'm spring cleaning, but we're in the middle of winter, so... I don't really know what it is.  But I'm gonna go with it because I don't feel like this all time and a lot of shit is getting done.  Woohoo!  😃

Now my floor is dry so I'm off to mop the other half.  Catch you later, FB.

And yes.  Yes I will come and do your house.  If you pay me.  😛

I have been really annoyed with the weather...

I have been really annoyed with the weather for the past few weeks because even though it's been pretty chilly it's also been raining a lot - BUT MOSTLY ON THE WEEKENDS. And that has been driving me nuts because I can't ride my bike or do any yard work in the rain. 🙁

While I would have rather been bike riding I am excited that me and Shaun got to work in the yard this weekend. (And yes - he wore some gloves this time!) We FINALLY have most of the limbs burned from when my trees were trimmed LAST FEBRUARY. That was SO SO much wood! We've been working on that off and on all year. My mom, too. It was redonk. 😳

I also started cleaning out the little storage building. My brother might want it and if not I'll probably just disassemble it and scrap the metal. It's in the way so it's gotta go. I am planning to have my yard landscaped in a couple of months to deal with the flooding issues I've been having so I have been REALLY REALLY anxious to get my yard ready for that. I am sure that I have plenty of time but I don't like to put things off. It lingers in the back of my mind and makes me stressy. Better for me if I go ahead and just do it.

So I am pretty happy with the yard right now. You can pretty much walk anywhere without tripping over sticks or falling over logs. The only thing you have to dodge right now is dog crap. I can live with that for now. 😃

I guess it pays to let the cats run low on food.

I guess it pays to let the cats run low on food. When you finally put some out they ALL come. Even Beyonce!

She stood about 4 feet away from me and ate some treats that I tossed to her. She watched me pet the other cats, too. Then when I walked by her she ran out of my way, but not out of sight. She is curious and less frightened. Yay!

Shaun cornered and caught her about a week ago. He thought she just needed to be petted. She bit his knuckle - HARD. I was like, "That's what you get!" 😂 I think we'll do it her way. So very slow. But that's ok.

I have considered sleeping on the couch so that I'm in her space more. So she can smell me and get to know me while I'm sleeping. I just don't really want to. But I might.

Went to Tractor Supply for some cat food...

Went to Tractor Supply for some cat food... and the girl at the register complimented my nails.  I was like "Whattt?"  They are painted a plain nude color.  They literally look like nothing.  NOTHING.

I started doing something last night, but got tired so they are totally unfinished.  Maybe I'll have time to finish them tonight.

So...

Shadow is performing at the Legend's Ball tonight. He said that one of his friends was going to record it. He might let me see it, even. 😊

Holy cow.

We let Emma outside to use the bathroom and she came back in with an icicle in her beard!

I just finished going through my old blogs...

I just finished going through my old blogs (originally posted on MySpace) that I thankfully copied to Blogger a long time ago.  Since MySpace decided that our memories didn't matter and just got rid of everything some of my photos were missing on my Blogger copies because I didn't know better and just linked them from the 'Space.  But now they are updated and I feel, for whatever reason, much relieved.

I am toying with the idea of updating my rescue / rehab blog.  I have about 30 dog stories I could post, not to mention a few rehab stories from the short time that I was permitted.  I think I quit blogging when I stopped going to MySpace and went to Facebook instead.  Back then, you weren't allowed to write this much or Facebook would cut you off.  I HATED THAT with a flaming passion.  I like to write ALL THE WORDS!  LOL
