I'm 24.... so what now?

So, hmm... what to update...

-birthday: Yeah I had another birthday. It was quiet and simple. Just dinner with my family. Sometimes the no fuss birthdays are best. We grilled out hamburgers. (and when I say we I mean my dad because all I did was chop the tomatoes and onions and tear the lettuce :) ) But it was super yummy. I love the taste of my dad's hamburgers and super-sweet, sweet tea on a warm summer evening. I love the way you can eat a certain thing and be magically taken on a journey down memory lane. I eat those hamburgers and I'm 6 years old when things are simple, the yard is a hunting ground and there are never enough lightening bugs to catch.

-cleaning: I've been cleaning like a wild woman lately. I tend to clean when I am frustrated or stressed. It gives me time to think and I end up physically cleaning my house at the same time that I emotionally clean up. Well, I woke up Saturday morning (EARLY morning - like 1:00am early.) so incredibly frustrated that I started to clean.... I cleaned anything in my house that would sit still long enough to be cleaned and then ran out of things to clean. I then went over to my parent's house and cleaned / organized their junk room and made it a multi-purpose storage/reading/dressing room. I know that sounds like an odd combination. But it seems to work. It is what my mother wanted it to be. Anyway, Even with all that cleaning I'm still frustrated and all I seem to have gotten out of it is a pulled muscle in my back and my laundry finished. I think I need to have a talk with a few people. There are some things I think cleaning may not be big enough for.

music: Everynow and again I find some old music I haven't listened to in a while and remember just how much I loved it. Right now that is happening with all my Melody Gardot and Norah Jones stuff. I forget where I first heard Melody Gardot, she isn't extremely mainstream, but her story is just as amazing as her music. She was hit by a car and actually first started song writing as a therapy. Check out some of her stuff if you can.

Well, I suppose that is all for now. I need to head to the bank, then the store on my way home. (My fan broke and MUST be replaced.)

Oh, pray for a friend of mine if you will. Thanks.

Two weeks till.

Not much to post today.

Went back to the doctor yesterday. Still have an ear infection. I'm tired of feeling dizzy. I wish it would just go away. I also have an eye doctor appointment and a dentist appointment this month... Lots of co-pays :(

I think I need to go away somewhere... Just read, write, sleep, whatever... just so long as I get some true rest. Its been far too long since I've had any. That probably has something to with why I can't shake being sick lately. Oh well, I highly doubt any trip is in my future, but it is nice to dream. :)

I guess that is all for now. Later. :)
