A briefing of a looooooogaleer week...

and then some...

Ok… So now we are getting on a time warp zone or something… Last weekend both Saturday and Sunday were spent moving furniture from a donator’s home to my house. Thanks to that, now I am relatively stress free in terms of not having and empty house and in terms of it being more liveable… with potential for greatness. It will take time to refurbish the antiques and create some pillows and window treatments to match, so the living room, the fireplace room, and the dining room will seem pieces of the same jigsaw and be flawless… The kitchen will be a WiP that I shall address somewhere in 2 to 3 years. Right now… Main concerns are light and cistern… Need light to put the cistern to work. After that, the bathroom upstairs will need a revamp to make it usable. Followed by the one downstairs. Seems that I will get an A/C in place for the one I gave granny, so the main bedroom will enjoy that bliss. Also, got a king bed, a much needed donation. The family room will be no problem at all… gotta get the plastic covers and put everything in place. For now the functional kitchen will be upstairs… Everything getting a rightful place. Wheeeeee, o algo. The Big Orc and the Mage did a splendid job moving heavy stuff around, sweating like manly men…

Wedding stuff… Yesterday was “Getting the paperwork done and legal” day… Getting the papers at the government’s office, getting tested at the lab, finding LadyDoc to sign papers, back to the demographic register to get the License, and now we just need to give the papers to Father Edwin so the task is completed.. Just 8 more days until doomsday… And it all is going fast and certain. We didn’t expect a house that would actually have a place to sleep… or a honeymoon… And somehow, Someone has allowed these blessings to happen. Expect the unexpected… A rule of thumb. It all had to happen with the right match. Flawless magic, flawless deserved victory.

Went to see a nutrition lady on Tuesday. She wants me in a 1,900 calories diet… Just before a honeymoon… Like I will think of carrots and tomatoes when at Monster’s Café… Geesh! The woman is psycho and very military-like… Why I keep meeting these cartoonish characters? Anyway… she expects me to test my blood sugar 6 times a day. No problem if I had strips and lancets for free. Seems doctors don’t really pay attention when you say you cannot afford this stuff… Either that or they assume you will get loads of it because rich mommy or daddy will pay… O algo. Sadly I pay everything myself. No comments… The mage took care of that with the magic of his cards… At least he reinforces that it is a necessary evil…

In the middle of it all, I started having a fever on Wednesday night… and it went through the whole day yesterday. Went to bed at 4:00pm… Night was the same… High fever and coughing and not being able to take anything but acetaminophen and put an ice bag in my forehead. The fever broke this morning at 6something… So I gathered what was left of my strength to come to work. This cold is already taxing me, and feels like the fever will come back anytime soon… If it does, I’m out of here. I need a bed and just to lay on it. Big headache, big body ache, sore throat… Damn the flu season! This is bad timing for getting sick… I still have too much to do… I guess a visit to ER is in schedule, para variar… I just don’t seem to be able to get away from hospitals…

Groundel got out of the hospital on Tuesday’s afternoon (Wheeeeeeeeeee o algo). Seems to be doing better, but that one is another one who is out of needles, strips and lancets. The diabetic curse…

Coriolis has a wedding tomorrow, and will be the Godfather. Up, this is the year of the Godfather for him. LOL Oh well… Hope he can make it over here on Sunday, we need to straighten out the cake stuff once and for all.

Raven been very helpful with everything that has been going on. If it were not for her I would be completely medically impaired. Thanks a lot for everything you do, in and outside office hours. I know you have a busy schedule all the time, and I appreciate everything you do.

Same goes for LadyDoc. She doesn’t have to be so nice, but she is. And both the mage and I appreciate it a bunch.

As for close encounters of the seventh kind… I get reassured of the reasons why I dislike most of my family and why I rather stay away from them all. So I am a big-mouth, foul-mouth, whatever-mouth for them all… What is new? I say the truth to whomever, wherever, and I always have proof to stand by it. So I am fearless. Men can be fearless, but when a woman is fearless she gets banned as an opinionated bitch that curses too much and that has no reason to be so rabid… I have never cared about everyone else, but it bothers that my aunt takes sides with the enemies. Of all the people she should know my reasons to act and behave, and she knows that I do have plenty of etiquette when I want to.

Such a big issue about invitations! Geesh, people, lighten up! The ones that have not been delivered yet I have not been able to deliver because… ding, ding, ding! No time! Being sick and doing everything else is more than a bitch! Especially with my condition! So, please, BEAR WITH ME and stop whining so much!

So… Its Friday. Can’t go to Aguadilla, can’t drive so far today. Gotta run home, and huddle in my nest, and hope that whatever I have goes away so I can actually do what must be done this next weekend…
