What haz been seen cannot be unseen. Heed my warning.
So yeah. I’m all better (have been since 24 hours after I fell ill) and actually feel quite good. Not sure why but I’ll take it. I had an impromptu snow half-day today when my boss let me leave early so as not to kill myself driving over the big bridge while 2″ of snow was falling. I must say that the bridge was the best part of the drive home – at least that was clear. The roads? Not so much.
Our office Christmas party is tonight (Friday) and I’m both looking forward to it and at the same time not because I work with some classy peeps and I feel like poor little dorky girl whenever we socialize. Add to that the fact that I have few fancy clothes that fit my chubs so I’ll feel even more ill-at-ease. Still. The party two years ago lives in infamy – I received the Unsung Hero award (I was gobsmacked!) and had five glasses of wine (I really was gobsmacked!) and got a bit raucous. Duty said “remember that you don’t need five glasses of wine to bring out your effervescent personality”. Yeah. ‘Tis true. But sometimes, being extra bubbly effervescent can be big fun. I shall attempt to keep the bubs on the downlow for the party.
Also too, Italian cookie baking commences on Sunday! Whee! Then work for just two days, off three! woooooo hoooo! (can you tell I’m happy?)

That is all.
Troofs for a Tuesday coming tomorrow. (How’s that for alliteration??)
Thanks to those who jumped into the meme with both feet! I love reading your responses here – YEY for playing along.
Today is an easy one. They get progressively harder. Tomorrow’s gonna be a bitch.
Day 02 → Something you love about yourself.
Hmm, something I love about myself, eh? I love that I find joy in the smallest things. If I see a bluebird fly by, or a baby smiles at me or I have a yummy punpkin spice latte – I can feel the joy all through my body. That’s a neat thing to have. I think that goes with the easily amused part of my personality. It doesn’t take much to make me giggle.
As proof I offer dis:

So, what chu lubs about yourself?

All LOLcats, all the time, right?
Something is awry with my doggie, Max. His tail is tucked way the hell under his butt and periodically he starts shaking for no reason as if he’s scared to death of something. Not sure what the dealio is. He was fine and Duty took him to get his nails trimmed Monday – I noticed the tail-tucking action last night and all day today. He is getting older and is losing his hearing a bit and has a cataract in one eye … just an old, old doggie and I know his health isn’t quite what it used to be. I hope he comes around soon. I haz a big sad about it.
No sads otherwise, though.
* Duty’s health issues are relatively resolved with the placement of stent #2 for his blocked artery. No stories to tell this time, kids. It was easy peasy YEY!
* Appointment with endocrinologist in 2 weeks to see WTF is up with my damn hormones. YEY.
* Trip to Maine coming soon! YEY
* I get to hold my behbeh and be called “Aunt WeeHah” by Luke this weekend. YEY!
What’s the haps out there? I have Google Analytics on this blog and Practically Intuitive and it’s rather disheartening to learn that yes, in fact, I do have but four readers (and I love each and every damn one a’youse!) and lots of spambots and freaks. I don’t publicize this blog much because who else would be remotely interested in my blatherings? My snark isn’t quite what it used to be. Still. Lauren and I always said we’d write no matter who read it (or didn’t, as the case may be) and I shall carry that mission forward. I know she’s reading it on a Kindle in Heaven so I should count her in the total. Officially now FIVE readers!
W00t!

(I love this. Duty says “You love everything.” and he’s right. I do. Everything. Even Dick Cheney. —> okay, not everything.)
Did I tell you that the Angels told me to let Duty pick my manifesting word for this month? Feh. He chose “Follow-through”. (Stabs him) And they also told me to allow him to chose one of the actions to embody that vibration. (Stabs Angels) He chose this: I have a desktop computer that I haven’t touched since 2005. (no lie) It has many, many of Lauren’s emails on it from back before I used Gmail. I really want to keep those but that entails firing it up and doing some serious saving. This is (one of) my task(s) for the month.
My mantra: “I finish what I start.” (note to self: start nothing and you’ll be home free! hah)
(sigh)
So, yeah. Have I started it? Nope. Does he remind me of it often? Yep. (stabs self)
Lots of stabby action going on. What’s that about?
I wish I could slug Duty for passing on his head/chest cold to me but I can’t. It wasn’t his fault. I don’t know what it is but I am !exhausted! from doing nothing. Usually, when doing my day-to-day nothing, I am not like this. I came home, ate dinner and then fell asleep on the couch listening to Andrea Hess’s discussion about Money Mastery. There were kids in the pool outside, dogs barking, Andrea talking and I was sound asleep under a blanket. I feel a bit better now after the rest but plan to go to bed soonish so I can get some good sleeps.
Because I have stuff. to. do!! J4 Throwdown is Sunday and I have cleaning and preparing to do which I hate when I feel well much less when I am all slugged out. Where’s those damn amphetamines when you need them? Feh.
Got some really good and interesting feedback on PI from Kelly and Dave last night. They said I “have a strong blogging voice” and compared and contrasted my voice here with my voice there. Their suggestion? The voice here is my real voice and they said that PI needs a big dose of Snarkypants Lisa there. So, look for me to fully inhabit my wise but irreverent side more over there. Fear not, though. All talk of Hal & Cookie lust, random political blatherings and other crap will still be going strong here. I knew you were worried. I could feel your vibes in the air! heh
Brags: I was happy that these professionals felt that my blog was really good, laid out well and organized well. Plenty of room for improvement, of course. Also, happy to hear they thought my writing was very good. I told them that my goal there was for people to know me and feel comfortable with me because opening up to someone to help you with some pretty intimate issues involved trust. Writing is how I do that so it made me feel good that they thought I came off that way. (GO ME!)
Grats: I am thankful for something fun and cool to learn (marketing) and wrap my brain around. I don’t need to learn the intuitive part – got that down pat. But lots of other stuff to explore and have fun doing. I am, quite simply, blessed beyond measure and don’t think I don’t know that one bit.
Desires: Oh, back to the desire to fit into my clothes again. Did I do anything this week to get me closer to that? Shamefully, no. I know it’s not going to just happen out of thin (ha!) air yet I refuse to make any effort in that direction. Must have chat with self about this.
BTW, Andrea is offering the Money Mastery program for a steal ($97 vs the $297 it is usually) so if you’re interested, holla at me. I have a couple people interested in doing a Skype workshop on it with me so I can step them through how to put it to work. I can do that for you (three) also! Holla!
This is me on most days:

Chello peeps …. another week of not-much-accomplished but that’s okay (more or less). Our pool is finally working so we were able to schedule our J4 (not-really-very-exciting) throwdown for next weekend. That means, of course, that I should start cleaning, umm, now. That means that I will start, umm, next weekend and then spazz about it and go into a small coma. Then, of course, comes the days of complaining how much I hate entertaining. I’m so so predictable.
New post up at PI which took me forever and a small meltdown to write. Jody managed to pull me back from the edge but it was close. I was telling a friend at work about it and dissolved into a puddle of tears over how my writing ability is for shit and I suck and blah blah blah cakes. Jody reminded me of DISSONANCE! and I saw the whole thing for what it was. So, I realized that I had my own voice there (even though it’s a tad more “professional” than here), it’s really still just me in all my dorkyass glory.
Also, too (/palin), the pool temps are low-mid 80s which is really unusual for this time of year so I might (MIGHT!) just get in for a dip. We shall see.
And now, your weekly LOLcat:
