SO. SORE. today.

SO. SORE. today.

It's kind of awesome, though.  🙂

I have some family stuff to do in a bit, then I am coming home to do my nails.  I chipped them all up yesterday.  OF COURSE.

Also, before I started going crazy on my garage me and Shaun went looking for a bike for me.  I am really not into one with gears and handlebar brakes.  I WOULD ride one like that, but I AT LEAST want the handlebars to be pointed toward me (they make hybrid bikes that do that).  I didn't grow up leaning over to ride my bike, and I don't want to start that now.  Maybe later once I'm used to riding again, but it's been ages, for real.

Anyway, we could not find a hybrid in my size.  We did, however, find ONE plain cruiser that fit me.  But it's ugly as shit.  It's so funny.  We've been looking at bikes for over a year and this is the FIRST one that was at least comfy to ride.  So, I might end up with an ugly as shit bike.  But that's ok.  It makes me laugh.  OF COURSE the one that fits me looks like the 80's called and barfed up a rainbow.  😛

I think it's been problematic because I'm like, not grown-up sized, but I am too big for a kid's bike.  I am having #ShortGirlProblems.  😛

Holy cow, Internet, I just need to STFD for a moment.

Holy cow, Internet, I just need to STFD for a moment.  I am SO TIRED.  I had no concrete plans today, but the weather was too nice to just sit inside so I thought I'd do some yard work.  Somehow, I got derailed and ended up cleaning out my garage - which was a HUGE undertaking.  It desperately needed to be done, though.

It floods in there so it gets musty and there are spiders and roaches (hey, better in the garage than in the house).  Apparently, I've had a squirrel or some other nut-eater sneaking in (there is a big gap under the door) and eating pecans all over the place.  I thought my trees didn't drop many this year, but maybe they were all just eaten before I noticed them.  LOL  Also, a bunch of big-ish poops were in there.  I have no idea who all has been hanging out in there.  LOL  But you know about me.  Any kind of creature needs a shelter from the elements, I don't mind helping them out.  That's ok.

Anyway, there was a lot of leaves and a lot of dirt that washed in.  Gross.  Stuff piled everywhere.  Not even sorted, just thrown in out of sheer frustration.

But now... now it's all organized and neat and it's probably cleaner than it's ever been.  😃  Also, I hit the fucking jackpot.  I found a box of animal stuff... it was all clean and ready to use.  😳  Now I also have a box of dirty animal stuff that needs washing before it can be used... but at least I know where to find things now.  It was all scattered about the garage before.  I'd gotten into the habit of just tossing things in without worrying about where it ended up.  Bad bad bad.

One other major thing I'm thrilled about:  I got smart and used the extra bricks and blocks that were in there to put things on so now nothing I care about will be ruined WHEN, not IF, it floods again.  GO ME!

It's a huge relief to have that done.  I'd wanted to clean it out forever, but just didn't have the time or energy.  Now I can work on moving what I want out of my little building into the garage and get rid of it so I'll have more space in my back yard.  Woohoo for progress!  😃

This was my brother's shirt, handed down to Shadow.

This was my brother's shirt, handed down to Shadow.  The kid has FINALLY outgrown it.  Now it's MINE!  Bwahahaha!

And yes, that is some hair touching my shoulders.  It's just all over my head.  *huff*

The last two times I've seen Beyonce...

The last two times I've seen Beyonce she walks away quickly, not runs.

Improvement?  I think so.  🙂

I just walked out of my bedroom and...

I just walked out of my bedroom and saw Beyonce heading towards the hall.  I must have startled her because she turned around and ran so fast to get behind the couch that she was sliding everywhere - she couldn't get any traction with that speed.  It was pretty hilarious.  😃

Glad to see her out and about, though.  ❤

I do NOT like these.

I do NOT like these.

But, I felt that they needed to be done. So there ya go. LOL

Anyone else feel chilly today?

Anyone else feel chilly today?  I had to bust out with the snow pants.  I get cold easy.  LOL

Also, today was the first time I've skipped cleaning the litter boxes since I started using that new litter.  I have literally scooped them every single day.  I wanted to clean them when I got up, but I was not feeling well, then my friend showed up to get the babies and I completely forgot since it's just part of my morning routine.  I usually do it first thing and then don't think about it again until the next day.  I kind of want to do it right now... but then it might not be as much fun in the morning.  Or will it?  If I do it now, before midnight, then I guess I haven't skipped a day and my litter scooping record is intact.  😳

Decisions, decisions...

What the hell.  I'm gonna do it.  😃
