"are you surprised?"

^ from a conversation with myself this morning that went like this:

messyme: oops, i just made a mess.

tidyme: are you surprised?

kid was listening to this small back and forth and asked me how many voices present this morning. punk. (and there were the normal, everyone-has-them two, thank you very much.)

midweek update:

there have been technical issues and physical issues that have made my list not complete. ARE YOU SURPRISED? ahem.

but there have been successes, too. and those are where i'm settling my focus.

i have really been enjoying the weather! fall is amazing in this area and winter can't be THAT bad, right? =D i'm really hoping i feel like getting out for a walk tomorrow morning — i'm trying SO HARD to do what i'm supposed to do for my back, since my stupidity and restraining it when it just barely starts to feel better is making this drag on forEVER. 

mister only has been able to get/unpack two of our units and it feels like we're going to be unpacking forever. kid turns 17 next month (OMFG SHE GREW UP) and i don't want me to be whining about unpacked boxes when she turns 18. 

one more is coming today, so hopefully we can get that unpacked (by we, i mean not me) and get another one for the weekend. if we can do that and get two more next week, the trips to podland will be done. 

of course there are still boxes in the garage that need attention, but just having all our shit in one place will make unpacking so much easier. SO MUCH EASIER.
