askye, best of luck with everything.

I believe if ltc could speak, she would tell me I am the worst mother ever. I have to use a nasal spray and one of those bulb shaped nasal aspirators on her, and she hates them both so very much.

Awww, I remember when Baby Lillian would reach across in sympathy and block the nasal aspirator from other babies at the daycare.

That's adorable.

I had a dream last night that I got to visit sj and ltc. It was a very sweet way to wake up.

Awww. Poor ltc.

I dreamed last night that I was hanging out in a garden with my mom. It was remarkably non-acrimonious. Except for the part where there were two-foot long fire ants. We were commenting on whether we should put saddles on them and let my sister's Pomeranian try to ride them. Then we had to stop my cat from attempting to stalk them. It wasn't unpleasant or scary when I was actually in the dream. Just weird. Kinda nice hanging with mom again, though.

My sister is coming to visit me for my birthday. That will be fun. (It also means that I need to clean up my apartment.)

Mom's getting here on the 11th. We'll be leaving for North Carolina on the 13th, I think.

SO MUCH TO DO! I AM FREAKING OUT!! STill need to get Penny to the vet. And pack. And figure out about getting my car to salvage and find a box for my tv and and and. I'll get it all done though.

I did have to get another phone ordered because mine isn't working right -- hardware issues. It's on back order so it will be here in 5-7 days. If it takes more than 15 they'll get me one. I can use mine it just...sounds like the number pad is being touched when it's not. Even when I have the phone on speaker.

figure out about getting my car to salvage

Around here, there are charities you can donate your car to, that will come and take it away. And then you can write it off your taxes if you itemize, which with moving expenses you might.

Well I have the names of 2 salvage yards I just have to call them for information. I don't know what charities take cars.

If I was thining about it I should have kept better records for the medical expenses. I've never itemized. I have a feeling I'm going to make so little it won't matter. I should have been getting reciepts at Goodwill but with this year and how much has gone on I'm just pushing through to get it done. I have more boxes to repack books and pack the last of them. I need to find out about something else that I've now forgotten about. I'll remember tomorrow.

I'm goign to see if Habitat for Humanity will take household stuff as well as the furniture and maybe save some trips to Goodwill.

Then there's the massive collection of diet coke cans I need to redeem but for some reason redeeming them gives me panic attacks. Oh and my gift certificate tot he yarn store I need to go to St Albans and use that. Maybe I'll stuff all the cans in my car, go up to St Albans to the place that doesn't make me anxious to redeem my cans, go to the yarn store and then...um...stuff.

(I feel slightly like Shaun in Shuan of the Dead redoing plans about how they are going to get his mum, kill his step dad, get Liz and go to the pub).

Local public radio stations sometimes take cars.
