Trips @ MindSay

Now it's a total of 9 lbs since last Monday...gonna be hard to maintain this momentum on our trip..and I am not going to obsess with it, I will just get back into the new meal plan when I return.

 

Leaving Friday morning.. almost here... had chiropractic this morning..got my neck adjusted.. have one more client, then I am having my acupuncture session and tomorrow hopefully getting a massage before the long drive :)

 

Yummy stuff.. lol!

But Im going to take a nap first.

The islands were amazing.

My best friend is amazing.

And my car now has a new radiator.

Intrigued?

I haven't travelled in a long time, but I did go to some neat places.  I will post:
- city (place)
- what I liked
- what I didn't like
- what was neat and unique

When I get the time.

It has been raining and storming these past couple of days. It is a nice change in comparison to any blizzards or snow we usual have.

Thanksgiving went great. Food was good.


I dressed up. :D This is how I looked after I took that video in my previous post. Yes, only a couple hours of sleep lately. Ive been so tired!

Then on Friday Josh drove to Indiana to visit our friend ReadBooks. We needed to return her two kitties that we were helping raise.


Here they are in their cages on the way down.


The drive down was relatively not busy for being a weekend after a holiday. We tried to drive at night if we could.


We didnt get lost except for finding the road where her house was! The next day she had to work so we decided to drive around and explore the area.

We drove to a nearby town after exploring her town. We found a neat area we started walking around. The buildings were very neat. Here are the pictures from the area.







We saw that they had carriage rides. Josh and I have never taken a carriage ride. Lucky for us that day had been in the 70s and the evening was not too chilly. Good thing too... I forgot my jacket. The video above is from our ride.

We arrived home yesterday at 6am and slept in. Im still kinda tired.

I have more pictures for tomorrow.

First verse:
My son tried to call me collect today from jail on my cell, so this recording guided me thru putting 25 bucks on my account to rec've the calls so I am plugging all the info, it tells me to hurry, my caller is waiting on the line, I am doing it as fast as I can.. and plugged in the final confirmation pound sign, and the line went dead. so now I have 25 credit and he prob will never call me again.

I noticed the water jug at my office had a little bit of water, so I made a note to myself to get water refilled before I go. The gal that works for me at the office bundled up all the laundry and left it in the spare room. I left to go have dinner with my husband, had to come back to get the bird.  She had brought all the smelly laundry ( I had to use biofreeze today and some other ointments that smell ) and plopped them in the middle of the reception area AND the water bottle was off of the unit as well.

Grr.. I .. KNOWWWWW what I have to do.. I dont need you to do things like that. Now before you go and tell me she was trying to be helpful. No..she wasnt..she was being manipulative. She 'seems' to have a good heart, but she is uncannily manipulative. Now what if I had another client, I would have had to drag all that stuff to the other room so the office looked presentable again. Just makes double work for me sometimes. I have asked her not to before.

When I get back from the trip, this girl is all out getting organized

How about another list? Sure you say, ok.. lets have at it:

• Organize and tally up all bills paid, health bills paid/unpaid, be ready for taxes
• Make copies to send final paperwork to lawyer for the accident claim
• Organize stuff in storage at my office to have a sale.
• Sell 2 of my 3 Massage tables
• Go thru all my files and pull out clients that havent been in over a year. Email, call or write them, then put in seperate file.
• Upload all of the emails, get list current.
• Clean out the 2 closets in my office.
• Got my Study book and cd for the national test, I need to study for a minimum of 1/2 hour to hour a DAY!

That should be enough to boggle the mind and body for just a bit.. lol.. These are the things I want to do, need to do, I need to make a plan, goals, etc. and DO them!

My landlord at the office called me on Monday and left me a awful message. "Dawn this is XXX, You said when you got your taxes, you would catch up the rent and get all current, and I havent received anything from you and I cant pay the taxes on that building without money coming in, and my calculations show you owe over 3000.00 dollars"

Oh no she didnt!!  I owed one month's rent, that SHE said in writing that I could use the deposit I paid on the office 2 yrs ago. I called, left a message, the weekend came and went, she didnt return my call... called Tuesday.. told her we needed to resolve this matter, did she get my last check or not ( she sometimes gets the check and doesnt cash for weeks! I think from now on, I will just go get a money order, rather than screwing up my account waiting on her AND send certified!, cause she is losing it!)  I got a letter that day from her... Dawn.. sorry.. I called the wrong person, you dont owe that money, etc... " SHE could HAVE called me...cause I was thinking.. good lawd, I wont be able to go to NY next week, all my stuff will be out on the sidewalk.. ( they do that down here in GA..its insane!)
