8:55pm

after 6 hours of hardcore cleaning, i had to melt into my bed and vedge out to american idol.
ate some soup (thanks howie :)
now i am going to crawl into bed again and , hopefully, fall asleep to frontline.
it feels good to have my house cleaner.
there is nothing worse than being doggone sick and having your house be a pit on top of it.

tomorrow i am hoping to get to the bank.
then i can have some $ to send some packages to people.
i still have my cough but it's not as bad, just annoying.

what is a "jib"?


2:37pm


i made myself get up at 9:30am, drank 2 red bulls and cleaned my house for 5 straight hours.
i am wiped out.
and my house is still only mildly presentable.
i didn't do a 100% good job, i did a 90% good job.
just too sick to get into every nook and cranny and really get everything spotless. but 90% is better than 1% good.
washed and cleaned kitchen and bathroom counters.
cleaned the stove, the microwave, did 2 loads of laundry, kind of washed the kitchen floor, put clean sheets on the bed,
threw out that black polyester comforter i had because i never could wash it because it's too big for my washer and it's just gross polyester...and it makes static cling and just yuck.
i have learned my lesson to never buy cheap bed supplies.
no more polyester anything.
scrubbed the tub, dusted the bedroom, took out more trash.
did more dishes.

i'm sore all over.
i still have to pick up the thing room, fold clothes and put away,
go through piles of paper, and endless other tasks.
but at least my kitchen and bathroom are a lot cleaner than they were and my bed is cleaner. my bedroom is slightly tidier.
i wish i had the enrgy to just keep going and get it all done but i just don't.

so far no inpectors have come over but they still have until 4pm that they could show up.

i am going to try with my last ounce of energy to get more dog hair off my carpet with the lint brush so that i can vacuum.
if i just vacuum without doing the lint brush 1st i have to keep cleaning the vacuum. i wish there was some sort of vacuum that was just only for getting fur off carpets.

god, i love my dogs, but they shed their weight in fur daily.
it is a never ending thing.

tomorrow i must get to the bank.

Horoscope for Aries (March 21 2006)

With the sun now out of Pisces and firmly in your sign you should feel a new burst of confidence, but thanks to the influence of Venus and Neptune your tendency to be irritable should be tempered nicely today. Doing a good deed will make you feel surprisingly good today!

and

Getting across *
Today you are likely to have many more conversations with people. Certainly this is an opportunity to get your point of view across to others, and you may be more inclined to talk than to listen. The nature of this influence makes you most concerned with matters that apply directly to yourself or that speak to you through your personal experience. You are more involved in examining yourself, stating your position with respect to others and announcing your intentions than in examining the world. You initiate communication, you talk to others and you express your point of view. Nevertheless, it is important to have a thorough understanding of the people and conditions you live with. Being excessively involved in yourself and your own ideas will weaken the effectiveness of what you do today.

and

Although you might be dreaming about a great escape, it's not as easy to let others know how you are feeling. As long as you keep things out of the emotional realms today, you'll be great. This isn't an excuse to go into denial about difficult issues; it's simply an acknowledgment of appropriate timing. Do whatever you must without talking about your desires just yet.

and

An astrologically upbeat day is indicated by the Sun, Moon and Saturn all in fire signs. As the Sun moves toward a harmonious trine with rock-solid Saturn over the next few days, we'll feel a growing stability behind the current anticipation of unfolding events. But the adventurous Sagittarius Moon also activates quick-tempered Mars, making us almost too eager to cross verbal swords with anyone who disagrees with us. Having patience with others will help keep things on a positive note.

Tuesday
Moon in Sagittarius
We still have Mercury retrograde until the end of the week ?Sat 25th- so using this last week of the retrograde cycle to tighten up projects and look over anything that you want to implement on the new moon is perfect. With the moon in Sagittarius you may feel resistance to the desire to move forward. It's the stars giving you the sometimes not so gentle advice you may not have thought of everything. The Sag energy is a desire to expand and learn but sometimes a little one pointed, on the flip side it is a vision to the direction your being wants to head. Don't let the internal critic meet each wild idea with limitations, rather make a list or a map that will give you a realistic idea of what it will take to pull that off.

Journeys of body, mind or heart are always of blend of all three. If you think of a trip the heart wants to take realize that a vibrant body and clear mind is inherent in accomplishing that. When the body wants to travel a sorted mind and settled heart will make it easier and with less pitfalls. For absorbing and evolving the mind we must address the heart and keep the body healthy to realize these goals on the mental plane.
