Almost

I think I am almost going crazy. The workers have been here several weeks now. They finally finished the siding on the front of the house. I am going to spray paint the shutters so they can hang them up. Then maybe I can start on the plants in the front. I hate looking out in the front yard and seeing smashed soda cans, cigarette butts and shards of siding and gutters everywhere. I am trying to be patient, but I don't feel like it. I feel like I am stuck in a fishbowl when they are here and I feel awkward about taking the dog out as much as she would like when they are around. I guess I'll have to wait another week or more. They would have been done if they weren't working 5 hour days...must be nice...grrr!

Haha...ok I am really not THAT annoyed, but close to it. Its been a hard week, all 3 days since we got back from the beach. I think that is the way life goes and right now we are just going to have to live through the things have been so difficult and keep looking towards the things to come. Believe me the house is the least of those problems, I guess its the only thing I am willing to share my frustration about.

Next week my friend Christina is coming from California to see me. I am looking forward to seeing her as I have not in over 3 years now. I find it interesting too that we were not very close friends at all until I left California. Its amazing how email connects people more than in person these days. I am grateful for it though. The neighbors invited us for dinner tonight. I am not feeling too well. Its funny, the other neighbors invited us a few weeks ago and I was sick and here we are again, me not feeling well the day of the invite. I think I am going to take a tylenol and get my butt over there. I am tired of things not going my way!
