mesothelioma

There is a funny- and rather stupid- lawyer commercial going on in our area right now. These lawyers are trying to drum up support for lawsuits due to mesothelioma. So their commercial says something like, "the only cause of mesothelioma is exposure to asbestos! even if you have no idea when you were exposed to asbestos, call us and we'll get you money!" Yea right- give me a break!

hunger!

I am hungry! It's not quite dinner time- I am waiting for my mom to call and tell us she is coming home. But it is hard to avoid snacking until then! Too bad they don't make an appetite suppressants that shuts down your appetite between meals! It would be nice if there was something to take away hunger until the right time!

jewelry

I am just not a jewelry person. I haven't worn jewelry with any regularity since high school, when I wore a white gold class ring and a white gold heart ring on my right hand every day. I might return to wearing inexpensive jewelry, but I don't think I would ever be comfortable wearing expensive jewelry like diamond rings. There's just too much risk of losing them, and losing the value that goes with them!

area rugs

My house is carpeted, so I don't really have to worry about filling in area rugs. In fact, I think I prefer carpeting! My old apartment was tiled, and my feet were ALWAYS cold. I must have worn out two or three pairs of slippers just in keeping my feet warm. Plus I just prefer vacuuming to mopping. It's less messy, I guess. Just my thing.

vacations

Lately I have been feeling like I need a vacation. Not just any vacation but a really really relaxing vacation. I need to go to a spa, in a sunny place like Hawaii, or Bermuda, or the Bahamas. Maybe Jamaica or crape myrtle. I don't even need to travel, even... just someplace with a nice spa, where i can sleep a lot, be pampered, get massages, and get free haircuts and manicures and pedicures.

weight loss

The worst part about trying lose weight is discipline! It's so easy to say I'm going to lose weight, but to actually monitor what goes in my mouth is tough! It would be great if there was a good external force to help me lose weight, but the truth is that the best diet pills are all in my head. I'm the only one who can control myself.
