Has it really been a month?
There’s nothing really new to tell as far as knitting goes because I haven’t done it for a month. Zip, zilch, nada.
Right now, I’m in full gotta find a house NOW dammit mode. Call me spoiled but living in this Crackerbox isn’t cutting it. The dog has to go out on a leash and misses being able to run. We tried going to a dog park but she doesn’t like them. The jackass that drives the apartment’s yard waste truck hit my car, busting out the taillight cover and creating a nice little dent by the license plate. I can’t prove it because I didn’t see him do it but I’ve seen how he tries to maneuver in the parking lot and the damage matches the truck.
I was severely disillusioned by the whole storage thing. If anyone assures you that the belongings of a 4 bedroom house will fit into a 10×15 storage unit, they are lying right out of their ass. We had to upgrade to a 10×20 and we didn’t take any mattresses, boxsprings, couches, loveseats, or recliners. We didn’t even have furniture in 2 of the bedrooms. That unit is packed to the max. I thought since we didn’t take much furniture, I’d be able to move boxes around and find things. Wrong! I’ve had to buy things that I know are in storage. Dog nail clippers and brush, kitchen utensils, spices, etc.
Guess what! Yesterday was my 5 week anniversary. That’s right. I haven’t had a cigarette in 5 weeks. After 20 years of smoking and numerous attempts at quitting, I’ve finally kicked the habit. Yay!

Dude, that RAWKS! Congratulations on 5 weeks! And good luck on the house thing. I’d really hate to have to go back to apt. living again.

Congratulations on 5 weeks! That’s excellent! That’s too bad about your car. Guess you’ll need a nice new one now. Maybe one that matches the pretty color of the yarn of your lace project.

IT’S YOU! Hey!
That is so awesome! Congratulations. You’re going to feel better and better. And to have all this stress and you’ve stayed off the cigs is even way cooler!
