Interrupted
My Life Thus Far
Ready To Run
Sorry I didn't write the past couple of nights. Our
internet connection is cable and our modem hasn't wanted
to remain online. So, it drops whenever it wants to. This
is both irritating and convenient, because I needed an
excuse to explain to Snookie why I won't be answering his
e-mails next week. A downed internet connection is
perfect! Wave came by today and looked at the line. When
the building was built (in the 70's) it was fitted with
antenna line, but cable wasn't around yet. So, it was
retrofitted later and the old line is having a hard time
supporting the new technology. I absolutely refuse to pay
for a new line to run through this place. I don't own it
and I can't take the line with me, therefore, I won't do
it. Whatever they did to fix it today, they'll just have
to keep doing until I move out.
I'm procrastinating. I'm really looking forward to this
trip, but I have no interest in doing the things I need to
so I can go on the trip. I don't want to wash clothes,
pack bags, clean up the house. Nothing. I just want to get
in the car and go. If I didn't have two little children, I
could do that. Make my was as I go, fly by the seat of my
pants! But, children don't work that way and I'll need a
little more preparation than "get up and go". I figure if
I get all the laundry done today, pack tonight and clean
tomorrow, I'll be both fully occupied the entire weekend
and well rested because I didn't cram all the work into
one day. Probably Sunday if I hadn't been able to get
myself out of bed this morning.
I went to Wal-mart this morning to get some provisions.
Drinks and snacks for the girls, water for me and
sunblock. Lots of sunblock. I also got Kiki a baby raft,
since I'm sure she doesn't remember swimming in utero. I'm
so ready to run! Ciao.
