I do hereby declare that I am participating in therealljidol. Spur of the moment decision after a nudge from both my buddy shadowwolf13.

Today I decided to dig in and get done what I could. The housework had horribly backslid last week. So, I got up and after a cup of coffee I got on my hands and knees to start cleaning clutter from the floor up ( Read more... )

Yesterday I had an adventurous day. It was the kind of day that affirms how far I've come. It was a day where it started with few things going according to plan, and I laughed through it anyway and adapted to the situation ( Read more... )

I was sitting at my computer at 8:20 AM, just about to go through email, when a power outage announced itself with a trailer shaking bang of a transformer blowing. Tried to focus and do some stuff around the house, but my routine was totally corrupted by that point. I called the power company back and instead of dealing with the automated system, I ( Read more... )
