So today was the second wednesday of the month. And what does that have to do with anything you may ask...well, the second wednesday of every month is donation collections with a domestic violence group I volunteer with (Against Abuse, Inc). The problem was that I forgot about it. That means that I stayed up until 4am working on homework and various projects (I'm big on the projects) last night and therefore did not get enough sleep. Now I understand that many people don't get enough sleep, but I NEED MY SLEEP. In the words of my brother-in-law's brother (who is in my ward choir): Jeni gets really cranky when she doesn't get enough sleep. However before I elaborate on today, let me tell you about yesterday. Grandma (who I live with) had a doctor's appointment at 8am. This means we left about 7:40 then came back to the house at 7:50am because she couldn't remember if she had turned off her bedroom space heater. :) So we got to the doctor's office, checked in and then waited. When she finally went in I went to run errands. I am pleased with my list: I got her van tires checked, went to the bank, and returned some DVDs (X-files: I want to believe and Babylon A.D.-good movies). Then picked up grandma and we went to Wal-mart...we both needed socks, very exciting I know but I also go some makeup (I'm wearing it almost every Sunday now) ON SALE for like 70% off. Later that afternoon I drove up to Chandler and volunteered for about 2.5 hrs at the Chandler Public Library (I love the library).
Today I spent all day in a moving van. We picked up a ton of furniture. I'm getting to be a pro mover and packer (that is not an advert for help, though if you really need it...). On the plus side, I got lunch out of it, I also go to take a nap (Christy who I do the pick-ups with and I were exhausted so we decided to "rest"), AND I got a fabulous desk/shelf/cabinet thingy that matches my bedroom furniture-FOR FREE! It needs some fixing up but I'm totally stoked. Which is good considering both Christy and I sacrificed some toes in order to get it into my room. :) Now I just have to clean it up and pack my stuff in it. I am satisfied with the past two days' work. They have been successful.
Now that I've caught up, I'm going away. I've some homework to do and want to take a nap first. Napping makes everything better...even homework.
