I have been really sick. Don't know what it is, flu, cold or other, but it has me basically dead to the world. I can't walk too far (2 streets at most) without feeling like I need a nap and a break. So I spend a lot of time at my mother's all day when Nick drops me off in the morning.
Snow fell for the first time two days ago, and most of the leaves are gone, so I completely missed my photo opportunities of fall. However I will probably be doing some High School photos for my brother this week now that he has finally gotten a hair cut. On the subject of family, my grandmother landed herself in the hospital two weeks ago for what was originally diagnosed as a stroke. Thankfully the diagnosis kept changing due to her memory coming back to her, and it was thankfully only a bladder infection. We went to her 50th wedding anniversary party the following weekend and it was like nothing at all had happened. It is official, my mother's family is nuts!
This coming weekend we are going to see Nick's family. I am not too thrilled because it is his family lol. I will be bringing 2 books to read and probably will be shutting myself in seclusion for the weekend. Should be fun getting those read though. I am now on book 4 of a 9 book series, and working my way through them at a stead pace. Going to go to the local library this week though to get some new material though in case 2 books are not enough.
Another reason I do not want to go to Maryland for a weekend is because I have a rather large gash in my finger from some work I was doing around the house, and I am finding it hard to do anything physical without getting hurt by it. My pinky got shut in our screen door and as a reflex I pulled it out and cut it open really wide, cracking the nail in the process, and bleeding all over our kitchen. Now, my pinky is in the way almost all the time, and that sort of makes it really hard for me to do anything. Typing is really hard, so it is taking a lot of time to blog, and there are definitely a lot of other things I can't do as well. Dishes, cooking, showering, and even dressing are all difficult thanks to a gauze covered finger. I am hoping that it will either heal more, or at least be allowable for me not to need it wrapped up all day long. I give it a few hours here and there once in a while, but it gets hurt too easy and the gauze acts as a buffer from danger.
Regardless, things are not going my way by any means. I put my resume out there and it seems as though the job market is at a standstill for me. I am basically begging for anyone to hire me, and getting desperate. Basically I am in a pickle because I can't get a car till I get a job, and the jeep is barely drivable. I also can't get to most jobs without a car, so carpooling with Nick is my only options. I feel like a loser kid whose parents pick her up from the dance because her boyfriend broke up with her. Not sure how it is related to my story, but it's how I feel lol.
How are things with you? Avoiding swine flu? Embracing it? My blog has been so quiet!
