Finally, the sun shines.

The sun is shining in my front door this morning. It's not warm yet, but the wind isn't blowing.

I'm working from home this week. I'm too much of a distraction at the office. I have room to spread out, listen to music and dance around the table while I work on these blueprints. I get more done this way, and the coffeepot is just steps away. Still, I'm bored out of my gourd. I can't wait for one of my projects to kick off.

I know. I should be content to have a job, and I should be grateful for the slow period so I can slow down. But I live for the excitement, I feel stir-crazy just sitting. Patience... It will happen soon enough.

I've bought back my power washer. I had to sell it to a friend last January when I came up a little short on money. I just bought it back. That's a relief. I didn't want to lose it.

I packed up the boyfriend and sent him down the road a couple weeks ago. He was costing me too much, and inconveniencing my little world. He was a good guy and he tried real hard, but I'm just too set in my ways to have a lot of patience with someone who doesn't share my values.

I switched banks, which I'm sure I told you. Best decision I've ever made. I'm totally smitten with my new account manager: even if she is a GIRL!

I've been taking vitamin B12 and Vitamin C supplements, and I went to my Dr. and asked to be put back on Cymbalta. I'm eating Activia yogurt once a day. I'm only 10 pounds over my perfect weight of 137. Made an appointment for next week for my well-woman exam. I've just about kicked the blues that have been weighing me down for three months now.

I've visited all my girls over the past couple of weeks. Made some one-on-one time for them and had some good conversations. Went and visited with Rob and we had a nice time with our usual banter. He's part of the reason I asked to be put back on Cymbalta - he feels pretty strongly about it. Besides what I already feel about myself, I trust that he knows me as well as anyone.

So, I've taken control over my house, finances, health (mental and physical), and the sun is shining today.

Have a great day.
