Taking Charge

Falling Into Place

tyralyn — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 05:55:37 +0000

Things are starting to fall into place for the 11th. I can’t wait. I wish I could talk more about it, but I can’t yet. I just am super happy that things are falling into the right spaces.

At least I don’t need a Jones Act lawyer to make things fall into place. I’m so excited and so happy.

Next week is going to be insane. If Rob happens to be off Monday, I’ve got plans. I want to go grocery shopping and go to the Old Home Days in Nichols by 3pm. I want to see Bucky Moon perform.

I think i’ll take my boring life to bed.

Take A Chance

I paid off my living room television a few weeks ago. I’m glad of that. It’s a nice Sony Vaio. I never read the tv reviews before I purchased it though. I probably should have, but the world isn’t going to end because I bought a tv blind. I’m looking at an lcd tv to use as a monitor. I learned how I trashed my other one, so I should be able to keep one for more than a few months this time.

My life is boring, can you tell?

NFL Favor

Must be nearly football season again. I’ve been seeing a litany of new nfl t shirts all over the web when I go looking for clothing. I’m not a big NFL fan, but I do love the Buffalo Bills. A new shirt might be in order, if they can manage to pull themselves out of the gutter this year and play like a team.

What’s your favorite team?

Exhausted

I’m exhausted beyond belief.I have nothing worthwhile to write about but I have the urge to write something. Sadly, I currently have the lyrics to T-Pain’s Low stuck in my head. This is the complete dichotomy of the music I got to enjoy tonight. The guy who co-wrote Jordin Sparks’ first single after Idol, This is my now, performed tonight in a free concert.

He was not what I expected. Older than I thought, but really talented. He’s mostly a songwriter, so I didn’t expect him to be as good of a singer as he was.

I can’t wait to sleep in tomorrow Until then, lyrics.

Shortie had them apple bottom jeans (jeans)
Boots with the fur (with the fur)
The whole club was lookin at her

Ponderances

I went to the doctor today. We talked a lot about things. He is ordering tests I should have had long ago. I went to a different doctor. I finally have insurance so it makes things better. I want a better insurance, so I was looking at different things and came across short term health insurance NC but it’s not what I need. I need health insurance in NY. I want one that will cover WLS. I want one that I can improve my life.

Want

Want vs Need. People tell me that they need certain things. For instance, someone can say “I need a new backpack.” They may think that they do, but the reality is, they want it and there is nothing wrong with the one they have. I saw these really cool custom tote bags and said “I want one of those.” while my friend said “I need one of those” and it made me think. Why do you need it? Does it serve a purpose that you aren’t having served currently?

I want a new hoodie. I want one that has my alma mater on it. I do not need it, need implies that I don’t have a hoodie already. While the family who lived across the way need a home built. Do they have somewhere to live now? Yes, but they need to be able to get into a permanent residence that suits all of their lifestyles, rather than something they took to get by.

What do you want? What do you need?

On another note

I was watching as they worked on tearing the house down the other day. They were taking their time, pulling out metal, which is understandable. The funniest part, they were treating it like it was precious Ferrari parts or something. It’s interesting to watch people.

They’re digging out the basement this weekend. I’m excited, that means they’re closer to moving back to the hill. It’s been too quiet without them, but this week has been anything but quiet. Starting around 6 am and sometimes going until 11pm. I can’t wait until the construction is done. I’d rather there be noise of kids, rather than noise of hammers and equipment.

Crafting

I have always been a crafter. Plastic Canvas and Crochet are my standard mediums, neither of which are overly popular these days. I’d been thinking about an etsy shop selling crafts, but what would I do? I could invest in Beading Tools and start making beaded jewelry, but everyone else does that too.

I’d love to figure out something crafty to do to make money. Perhaps I should start crocheting hats. Those seem to be pretty popular. It’s definitely a thought, and I could do it easily enough. But is the risk worth the reward?

Randomly Thoughtful

tyralyn — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 22:56:37 +0000

I’ve been watching the demolition of the house across the road today and it’s made me stop and think about life. How much has changed this year, some of it for the better, some not. I was thinking about how close I came to losing Mom.

I was cleaning off my desk and found the carinsurancelist that I had made with the different quotes I’d received for the car we were buying. It’s on Mom’s insurance now, but when we were doing the purchase, we weren’t sure she was going to survive, frankly.

So much has changed, yet so much has stayed the same. For that, I am happy.

August

It’s hard to believe that it’s half way through August already. That means it’ll be winter soon and I’ll have to invest in humidifier filters so I can breath this winter. I probably should buy a new humidifier in general. One that I can sit on my desk, but I worry about it being so close to my monitor.

At least I have a couple months before I have to really worry about it. Thankfully.
