Apartment Hunting

 

This is exactly how I have felt over the past 2 weeks searching for a decent apartment.

The papers are being drafted and I am trying to get out of this place before I lose my ever-loving mind.

I am sorry about my temporary absence in posting but this week has consisted of fighting, searching and headaches. I am over it.

Rain, relaxation and a little paranoia on the side.

I didn't even realize that I missed a day of blogging! For today I have some pictures of my eventful day spent relaxing with the dogs...

Poor missy has yet to nap because of the lightning and thunder we are having. As for me I am mesmerized by the baby tree frogs that are climbing the side of the building. How can something so creepy be so adorable? 

--update 7:54pm I am getting paranoid. After counting over 300 frogs I am starting to think they are plotting against us. 

The little things...

No matter how stressful the day or how hard it rains...

 Starbucks makes everything ok!

Rain, rain go away...

Well it is officially hurricane season!!! Tropical storm Andrea is making her way up our coast and making life a pain for me, literally. For those of you who don't know, I have rheumatoid arthritis. I can verify that weather affects the body!!! It hurts to move my hands and arms and my whole body is pulsing with pain. I will be dosing with some Advil and taking a long nap with the pups. I just wish I had a warming blanket to wrap myself in!!! 

Waking up and Working out

I have decided that my new "habit in training" is going to be getting up at a set time every single day (including the weekend!) and taking a therapeutic walk for about an hour. I am not going to start off with it being about losing weight. I need a time where I can get out of my own head and clarify. I don't seem to have the ability to do that while home because too many things are going on in my life. So maybe the pavement will be my salvation. 

As for things going on....

I have a meeting tomorrow morning to discuss my future options. I am excited. So prayers and crossed fingers that I get the news I need to hear. 

There is a tropical depression about to rain on my parade for the next few days. So it will trap me in the house long enough to get some more boxes and clothes packed. I need to get this place ready to travel. 

O-H-I-O

Today I am missing my home state.

I miss the weather, the landscaping, the smell of an Ohio summer and most of all 

I miss my family. 

98% of my family still lives in Ohio and I haven't seen many of them in almost 3 years. 

I am seriously considering Ohio to be a part of my plan.
