Today it sprinkled. I took the day off in order to go and get blood-work done. That is, I had my blood taken. My doctor thinks there's something going on with my thyroid. So I guess we will find out now if there is. I've been putting it off for 3 months now, because I hate being poked in my veins. Now I have a huge black and blue spot on the inside of my left arm. Gross!

After my appointment I came home and made something to eat. I made some hash browns and baked my cherry turnovers and made coffee. Then I did some shopping. I went to Wal-Mart for food. And then to TJ Maxx. I found the cutest long, cotton summer dresses for like $15. So I could not pass them up. I used to work there are TJ Maxx. And they don't have layaway any more. So I had to buy them today. I let it go. Because I have money in savings. And I wanted to get something cute, and new. Instead of always going to Goodwill.

I've been so busy that I just do not want to write or even blog. I work and work. I get to work at like 7 a.m. and lately work on Saturdays. But I've gotten really overwhelmed and exhausted doing this. I think from now on I won't work Saturdays. A lot of the other employees don't. So I'm going to give myself the weekends off again. Yesterday I was sick, with a headache and dizziness. My brother and mother both think it's from working too much. I tend to ignore physical symptoms like that. There have been times when I've been sick with sore throat and totally feeling bad, and still do not realize that I am sick. I have no idea why I do that.

After I got everything done I called Larry. He's the meanie up north who drove me away from the beautiful forest home where I'd been hoping to live and work. I don't know how or why I did that. I just did it. I was really pissed off for a long time. The bunnies are all okay. And that was a good thing to hear. He said that they're running loose in the back. And there are wild bunnies out there too.
We got to talking and he told me he'd been in trouble for vandalizing. I asked him what. He said some guy threw a bar stool into the fireplace at the lodge bar and grill and so he went and found the guy's truck and slashed his tires. But it was recorded on a camera. He said he has a felony and has to still go to court on it. He also told me his business "took a shit this year". I thought it weird, I told him. Since The Kirkwood Inn was going strong. He tried telling me there was no snow. And I know that isn't true either. Since my next-door-neighbors have told me that the snow level was up past the second floor. It sounds bad for him, I'm not surprised either. I actually told him something like "you need to get your anger under control". Or maybe it was "your okay when your drunk, it's when you aren't drinking that your mean", Either one of those statements is true. I may have said both of them.
The good part is that he's over it all, between us. And he has all my stuff all wrapped up in the basement. And still said he'd bring it down. He's coming here in June, but flying. I gave him my numbers for when I does make it here. He mentioned that it was weird how I ended up back in the city where I am now living. It's home I told him.

I've been keeping in touch with Wade and Amy. They were my friends who lived next door to me. I think Amy will be taking a vacation once the snow melts and the season is over. I offered to have her here with me, for a visit.

I guess I still feel a loss for having to leave the rural country life. I will go back one day.
