Positive thinking

I have begun to think in the positive realm. I will have a job. I will purchase a new car. I will have an income. I will lose weight. I have to focus on the positive and believe it will and can happen then it will. Don constantly thought about a new truck. The color, style, payments, etc and he was driving home from the doctor the other day and there it was-HIS TRUCK! He looked and brought me later and test drove. It was awesome-everything he wanted. He bought the truck.
SO I am thinking and believing the positive from now on. It will happen!




I hung this flower basket outside the back door. I watered it on my way out one morning. Came home to find the flowers dislodged and dirt on the ground. I of course put the flowers back and fixed the planter.

Later I again saw this disaster. I looked closer and there is a cute little nest. I finally saw the birds. Tiny little brown birds. I took some more picture today, I hope to be able to get pictures of the little birds.




I will post some pictures of the new truck when I post next. I have to remember to bring the camera in and download the pictures.

Rain rain go away

Of course it is a Wednesday, music in the park, and it is raining, hailing and thundering this morning. It is a wait and see. I emailed and called Sue to change our meet up to tomorrow before she goes to the library with the boys. That way we are not playing with weather and kids and dogs. If it clears up or not I figure I will go to the gym and then come home. What else can I do? I could clean the house, empty boxes, sign up for unemployment..ok that is another week to wait due to end of school, but I can bissell the messes that Smokey made yesterday.
Speaking of smokey, she really gave me a scare. She had her hackin cough and each time, brought up actual shit. yup the shit eatter couldn't keep it down. It really stunk-at first we thought harley used the box. that wouldhave been too easy...
I guess I will get the bissell ready and clean up the stains. Then I will move on with my day. Got reading to do for this week and I can even start on the discussions. I hope we keep the power all day. It would be hard to post without power.

June already!

WOW! It is June already. I have been here almost a whole year. And yet, i still am unemployed and we are still living with boxes. It is time to prioritize. I think being here a year, I should already have that under control, but yet I don't.
I know that getting a job is not easy and I accept that. I need to take care of the box dilemma. Hitting one room at a time and get rid of the "crap". To Don it may not be crap, but if we have not seen, used, missed in the full year plus, it is time to get rid of the junk. I was told to put the ventriloquist dummies on line for sale. That will happen this week hopefully. I just have to get pictures and get them uploaded.
We are going to be travelling in less than a month. I have to also get ahead for class, we are traveling the last week. I also need to get the dog food onto the RV, along with clothing and people food. I think I am going to pick something "alabama" for both Linda and Dianna. Linda will be meeting us at Dianna's house. So it would be nice. I think it is going to be something edible for D and something that can fly for Linda.
I don't know how I feel about this whole trip thing. I guess it is my anxiety staying in the back of my brain. that is something I have always had...the unknown. I figure that this is a trip to get the truck and visit. i don't for see spending too much money cause there is none to spend and I don't have any extra-at least until January when the yearly check comes in.
