Weekend Is Over
Boo! I don't want the weekend to be over. I didn't get to relax. Isn't that what the weekend is for? Well, shucks.
Today I went to the Bridal Show with Tina, then came home to help Adam clean is apartment for the out-clearance. Now I'm pooped! And lounging watching the awards.
LOL - Jennifer Aniston was presenting with Jack Black a little while ago, and she was all teared up, and having an obviously hard time holding herself together. Me and my little mind (which is far too interested and gullible with the paparazzi reports) wonders if it has anything to do with Brangelina?
OMG! As I was just writing that last paragraph, it showed a shot of her & John Mayer, and she still looks like she's torn apart! I hope everything is okay with her and John! That woman deserves to be happy! I'm so bad, I know.
Wow - Slum Dog Millionaire is really cleaning house tonight. It's nice to see.
Happy 6th Adam. I love you partner!
Anyway.... bedtime!
XOXO

Moving Day Is O-V-E-R
Hello all!
Today is the day that Adam and I had friends and family help us move everything from our two separate apartments into our apartment. It went very quickly, and very well. (Thank you thank you thank you everyone!) Then we sat down to enjoy some great homemade whole wheat pizza.
We've got our spare room done, and part of the living room so far. We'll sleep in the spare room for a night or two while our bed finishes drying (Adam stained it last night, it looks beautiful 0 way to go Hunny!)
My parents hung around to help us out, which was great, and then Adam's mom and her husband stopped over and our two families got to meet for the first time. They seem to get on just fine, which was nice.
Adam and I are intending on sitting down and relaxing for the rest of the night. Tomorrow I'll be heading to the bridal show (yipee!) which I am looking forward to, and I hope I can stay awake and alert enough to enjoy it. Boy am I wiped out!
Once again, thank you everyone, for all your help today. It was very much appreciated.
Maren, I'll be calling you soon. Love you!
Adam, I am so in love with you and so very happy that you and I are living together. You make my world a very wonderful place to be. I adore you. I cherish you. I love you. I am in love with you.
XOXO

Thank goodness!
Today we are finishing up our big move! Thank goodness! Once the rest of the furniture is here, we can finally put things where they belong! I will feel so much better once things get put away!
First I have to start the pizza dough.... lol
Oh, I forgot to mention that I am now done my ulcer medication. Yay! Now just waiting for the face to be better.... silly face !
Thanks to everyone for helping today!

PS - Maren, I'll call you later this afternoon to find out if you're still pregnant. lol - Love you!

Alright!
I just went for a walk on the treadmill downstairs, and feel great! Went for one last night too. Could it be? Am I possibly ACTUALLY on the road to recovery? Finally? I hope so!
Friday!
It's Friday today! And Adam and took the day off - so it's even better! And look - it's sunny outside! max is thoroughly enjoying basking in the warm sun.
I slept in, I'm having a leisurely wake-up. and I'm kicking back relaxing. Ahhhh. How nice!
We are heading to my place later on to pack my kitchen and finish the spare room & storage closet. Then I'll be done tomorrow! yay!
Tomorrow is our big moving day (when I say big, I mean big furniture). Then we'll be able to start arranging things properly. I'm very much looking forward to it. I unpacked and organized the bathroom yesterday, and it makes quite the difference already.
Now if only we could get the kitchen organized. We have too much kitchen stuff! Way too much! Nearly two of everything. lol
Hey - here's a thought. Maybe I'll be able to try my raclette table now that I have someone else to share with. Only thing we don't have between us? A fondue set. But that's okay. We don't really need one.
Oh, Maren - I called you, call me back when you get a minute! (I got a kick out of the new "answering service" by the way!)

Needing Sleep.....
Hey all!
So I've been doing very well lately. Feeling decent (yahoo!) and managing to be productive. Although tonight is a rough night, I'm having some sever head pain and ickyness. Bleh!
LOL - I had a 5 hour nap earlier..... that's way I'm awake at 1 am. hehe
I dropped Jen off to the airport today. She was so excited! Too cute!
And Max is wondering around stoned and overly cuddly from the catnip. hehe
Tomorrow is Thursday, which is my Friday, which is nice. And it's back to the doc I go (hi ho hi ho, it's off to the doc I go).
And I love my Adam. Which you may have guessed by now, but I don't care. He rocks, and I love him.
Going now... rambling....

Been so long...
So I know it's been awhile, but Adam and I have been so very busy. We're moving in together (that's in case you've been living in a cave and didn't know)!!!!
My place is nearly empty (yea!) and Adam's is getting there. The bathroom and kitchen are done (pictures coming soon) and slowly but surely the place is coming together. And let me just say: I love it.
I'm also starting to feel a bit better. The docs finally got my pain under control, although I still haven't got a diagnosis. But having a lack of pain makes all the difference. I can do things now!
I'm also very much looking forward to getting back to physical movement. I'll give myself another couple weeks, then I'll start walking. But I'm already starting to be way more careful about what I'm eating (not including any PMSing days - those are freebies). But I believe I am on the road to recovery - from whatever it may be. And that is awesome. Now I just have to work into fitting into the same clothes I was wearing before I became a mandatory medical coach potato. I'm looking forward to that for sure. :)
Now I must run.... and go sleep. Ahhh... sleepy.....
Nite world!

Another step!
So all my clothes are now in Halifax! Yippee! It's really really really happening! No more sleeping in Dartmouth, no more nothing! Sooooo happy!
Bad point? Now I have to put clothes away. And you can ask my mother - I detest putting clothes away. Ick.
But YAY!!!
Sleepy.....
I don't know why it is I can't get enough sleep. Okay, well I know why, but it's irritating. I slept just over 8.5 hours, and I'm still beat.
And stressed. I hate drama.
On a more pleasant note, last night was my last night sleeping in my Dartmouth apartment. From now on, I sleep in Halifax, which makes me a very happy woman.
I saw my Adam at lunch. My goodness that man makes me happy. He's coming up after work, and we'll pack some things in the car and head back to the new place.
So Douglas, since you know I have this, I want more frequent baby bump pics!!
hehe

*gush*
Adam just called.
I love him. I mean, I really really love him. He makes me so happy, it's unreal! Just the sound of his voice is enough to dazzle me.
*sigh*
I am the luckiest woman in the world.
Totally wiped out....
After yesterday I am wiped out. ka-pooped.
Aliant came and the installation went great. We now have phone internet and cable at our new home. While waiting yesterday I managed to get some things downstairs. I had to go slow and take my time, but I made some progress. But I am absolutely wiped out today.
The girls who bought my TV are coming to pick it up around 3, and there is an apartment showing here at 630. So there's no real time to laze and sleep, although I think I"m going to try as soon as the TV is gone.
It's likely this will be one of my last 2 nights in my apartment. We are hoping to be sleeping in ours starting this weekend.
I've been some thinking, and I think once we are settled in the new place, I'm going to take some time to relax and forget about the world for awhile. Someone else I know did this recently, and it sounds great to me. Perhaps I'll finally be able to put things in perspective, without feeling guilty. Who knows? I have a tendency to feel guilty about way too much stuff.
Oh I'm just rambling now. Think I'll go chill and get my TV ready for pickup!

People are just plain...... dumb.
Well my weekend didn't go quite the way it was supposed to. (Does anything ever?)
Saturday:
Adam and I went down to the rental office to get the keys for the new apartment. We got there and were told "The carpet people didn't come on Thursday, so the place isn't ready for you."
Uh.....huh? Adam was told on Wednesday that the painting and carpet were done.
And you didn't call us to tell us.....why?
So they say they aren't sure what happened. One of the workers pipe and say this happened to her when her moving truck was here, and she had to wait 8 hours.
Right, okay - so this happens often? Well, okay..... we went by what you told us, and Aliant is coming on Monday to hooks stuff up. Should we cancel?
No. no. Don't cancel. I'll call you by the end of the day. I promise, I promise.
Okay.
They didn't call. Shocked! *gasp!*
So Adam and I went about our day. We had a lavish breakfast at home, and picked up the paint/supplies for the kitchen and bathroom, a new litter box for Max (which I think rocks!), and tried to get some stuff done. We even took a chance to go out with Jen U and grab a bite. Somehow, we managed to salvage our moods for the day.
So Sunday we went to my place to pack - I admit I haven't really packed anything. Got some good progress on the spare bedroom (wahoo!) and then had Kory, Kim, Dana and Taylor come for supper. It was nice to visit with them. They are like their own little family - it's funny t see Kory like that. But it was nice at the same time. Those girls adore him. And Taylor clings to him. Dana is so cute - I told them they'll have to come visit the pool at our new place and the girls got so excited!!! (which reminds me, I'll have to get those pics up of them).
So today I am waiting for Aliant. They oh-so-happy people in the office are having me doing my in-inspection at 9:30. Then Aliant will be by this afternoon. I may even take a few things from one place to the other today (little things - nothing too heavy of course). Then back to my place tonight for more packing.
I'm feeling alright these days. The doc doubled my meds last week, and seems to be working. I discovered that being in warm/hot water make the pain worse, so no baths or hot tubs for me for awhile. But otherwise, I've been feeling decent, which is nice. Very very nice.
Anyway... enough rambling.

A gift from Adam
This is the picture Adam got for us, for the new apartment! Isn't it wonderful?!?!?
I fell in love with it when I saw it months ago.
He's the best!

Another day......
Hello all!
So Adam and I are going to get ready to paint this weekend. And as it turns out, I get a kick ass military discount (40%) on ICI brand paints. May need to color alter one more time....
Adam's going to ring my neck for evening suggesting that.
I am so very very tired today. I promised the clients at the Rehab Center that I would stop in for a visit tonight. They miss me and are concerned. I"m taking Adam along with me, though, so everyone can meet him.
But wow am I tired. I really really want sleep. Early night tonight!
The last couple of days have been pretty good, health wise. They doubled my medication earlier this week, and I think it had a good impact. Let's hope it stays that way.
But wow am I pooped!
I know I keep saying that, but my eyes are so heavy. Argh.
Adam and I watched the first few episodes of Chuck last night. Holy Crap! What an awesome show! I highly recommend. (Tina, you'd love it! So funny). I might have to snuggle into the arms of my man and watch another tonight, before we doze off.
TGIF.
Oh, I got the official "we aren't extending your contract" talk yesterday. Feels good, but it feels icky too. I'm so happy to be out from under the policy-breaking-child-endangering-cadet world, but at the same time, a steady paycheck is a wonderful thing. I'll have to be super-frugal for the next couple of months, at least until the EI starts coming in and Kia is paid off (she'll be all mine in April!!!)
Ok - going now.
maren - love you!
alice - yay job!
tina - thanks for the ear today
adam - I Love you. So much.
XOXO

Update!! :)
Adam and I get the keys to the apartment on Saturday! Woowoo!
That means taping and painting and.... oh yeah - new apartment! Yay!
"Do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight - woo!
get down tonight!"
(this is me doing a dorky happy dance!)

Oops....
Okay okay, so my last post was full of self-pity. Sorry about that. I just had a very bad day yesterday, and a partially bad day today. I am doing better now though, and loving every minute I get to spend with Adam.
The walk today, no matter how short, felt very nice. The fresh air wasn't too cold, and just what I needed. And now a night of relaxation....ahhhhh.
Oh - I want to thank everyone for their help on Friday. I could not have done it without everyone's help. Next move in a couple of weeks. I'll let you know when!
So what's next on the list? We should be getting the keys this coming weekend, and then painting this weekend as well (we hope!). Then Adam will move some of his things, and then me mine. Yipee!
I paid my rent for the last time at my new place today. No more rent in Dartmouth for me! Woohoo! I can't wait to be in coupledom.
XOXO

Losing My Mind
I feel like I am losing my mind.Oh wait, I think I might be.
I hate pain. It sucks. It take all the energy out of life.
Breakdown is pending.
Although, I made it outside for a short walk today. It felt nice to have the fresh air. Really nice. But the pain afterwards sucked.
SIGH. Losing my mind. But maintaining control. I think.
Arg!
