Thuuuuuuuuursday

Well it’s Thursday….another week has almost come and gone. Woop Woop! I’m starting to get sooooooo excited about our trip to FL! Granted I’m going to miss the cool weather that we’re having up here….it’s 46 right now with a high of like 69….but I do also miss the nice warm and sunny beaches in FL. I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself for the whole week without my Rupert and Lilly though. Lilly has such separation anxiety that I’m actually worried about her mental stability, LOL. Luckily though Joel’s friend has agreed to house sit for us and that is Lilly’s boyfriend, so maybe she’ll end up enjoying the time with him even more than she does with us! Rupert will be fine; I’m more worried about how much I’ll miss the little pig-man.
We’re starting to plan the trip a little more and get into details. I think on the way down we’re going to meet up with my mom and her hubby and do a late dinner or something. It’s going to be really late, but it’s the only way we’ll get to see them so yeah. We’ll get to Knoxville around 10pm I think and they’ll meet us somewhere in there. Hopefully we can find a restaurant that is still open, LOL.
I’m getting full-blown into my ‘nesting’ mode right now and am oddly looking forward to the weekend so that I can clean. How weird is that? I know I won’t have much time during the next week to do it so I figure I should get it all done this weekend for our houseguest. J Shampoo carpets, wash everything fabric, wash the bedding, organize everything, leave a note for him with all of the details for everything, sweep/mop the kitchen floor, ugh! So much to do!! But I’m excited to do it! (I’m a weirdo)
Poor Joel, he has no idea what he is in for on Friday next week. He needs to sleep for as long as he can since he’ll be the one driving through most of the night. So far I have him taking me to work, loading up the car, changing the oil in the car, talking to Chris about coming over and stuff, he has to go to the store and get his tobacco for the week, getting snacks/groceries, packing his own stuff….the list goes on and on. Hehe…he has no idea yet, LOL.
I really wish that I could take a ½ day on Friday as I had originally planned, but with the windstorm that we had a few weeks ago I took a ½ day because I couldn’t call in to work to see if we were even open, and I had no power anyways. Phooey. I know I could ask for it and probably get it, but then I’d only have 2 days left total for the year, and that just won’t work at all. If it weren’t for having a Dr. appt on Weds. I could probably cut out an hour early, but with the appt I’ll already be having to make up 2 hours and I can’t make up any more than that.
Well hopefully today on my lunch break I can get down to the eyeglass store/place/thingy and get my Rx sunglasses ordered. I have been putting it off forever but I need to get them before the end of the year since I get one pair per year and next year I need to get new regular glasses.
Well….i’ve blabbed on long enough for now I guess. I should probably get back to work or something……see you all soon!!!
