I've been working on packing up my apartment, which is stirring up a lot of dust, which my lungs do not appreciate. Just did my second nebulizer treatment tonight.

Hi Scrappy!
Feel better, Hil. Packing is no fun even without allergies.
I've been pretty productive but stalled out a couple of hours ago. Still need to hit the pet store and grocery store and cook food for the next few days. And work out. Having a weird kind of panic attack, though - not traceable to any usual triggers (pain, caffeine, nicotine, social anxiety). Grump.
Here's what I've done so far, let's see if a list will give me a little renewed energy: paid all bills due, washed shower curtain liners, scrubbed tub and then rehung clean liners, filed some papers, recycled some others, assembled a rolling stool I bought, found Frankie's rabies vaccination docs so he can get groomed at Petco, put his current tag on his collar (finally), found a clipboard and hung my DBT diary card next to my bed, put away clothes, and found recipes for veggies I need to cook tonight.
Hmm. I think I'll make a cup of tea and listen to some Tara Brach. Or something.

Feel better Hil!
I go back to work tomorrow. Just for 4 hours and I have to make phone calls afterward and do stuff. I'm a little nervous but I know I'll be okay. New structure to my life.
Mom's been here and it's been great, re arranged furniture, got rid of a bunch of stuff. Decided to list some things on Craigslist (but haven't done that yet). Got rid of more clothes becuas they are too big!
Also am feeling strongly about moving to NC in 1-2 years. Hopefully closer to 1 year. I have ideas of how to get that done as well.

Hil, good luck packing.
Askye, good luck going back to work.
We did a lot of clean up today in what wil be ltc's room. Several boxes of books that I'm not willing to part with went into the basement. There's still so much more to do between now and August.

Sounds like good progress, askye. NC, you say? It's a lovely place to live.
Managed to get off my butt and got to Petco 5 min to closing. I was not the last customer out, I was efficient!
Am now cooking and doing laundry. Won't get to bed on time, but I'll have gotten pretty much everything done I needed to.

Yeah smonster - my Mom, brother and nephew are there. It's not as hot as Florida but close enough to get to Florida. It looks a lot like Vermont (which is a plus, I like the mountains).
Not sure where exactly close enough to be a part of everyone's lives but also where a Best Buy will be. The idea being I'll transfer to a store there and then use that as a spring board to find another job. Then I don't have to worry about moving to another state and finding a job.

NC, sounds like a good idea Askye.

Sounds like a very good plan.
Going to bed about an hour late: did everything but work out (oops) and get Frankie's claws trimmed (so overdue and I can't do it alone). Considering I had a migraine yesterday and a panic attack today, I will take it. Good night, all.

One of my cousins commented on one of my facebook posts about my job hunt that I should share a "vision, desire, affirmation" of what I want to happen. I am not responding, because I don't think I can respond without profanity at this point. I think I'm up to 60 applications sent out.

Ah, yes, things won't happen unless you tell the universe you want them, so if they don't happen you obviously didn't ask right.
