Death

Even though I work in a funeral home, death still affects me.
A classmate of mine died yesterday.
We weren't especially close but she was going to be working at one of the other funeral homes I work for.
We'd had classes together in the fall but not this semester.
I just saw her two weeks ago and now she's dead.
I am sad but I'm not too sad because I know she's in a better place now.
This helps me to remember what other people are going through and feel like when they come to the funeral home.

Spring Break Resolutions

With my spring break starting Thursday at 11 AM I have decided to make a few new resolutions.
(They say that making them in January is not helpful and I have found this to be true because I can't even remember the ones I made then.)
Ahem.
I am planning to: exercise more, eat more healthy and less junk, cook more, study more, procrastinate (no, better not put that one), pack my apartment up well before time to move and in the process clean out my closets and throw some junk away!
Wonder if I can keep up with such a stout list?
How many of these were on the Jan 1 list?

So Sleepy.......

I'm exhausted.
This whole "spring-ahead" business is over-rated in the sleep department.
Why can't they cut out an hour during the day?
Lots of people work on Saturdays and Sundays and would be glad to lose an hour......
Or at least I would.
I hate being sleep-deprived.
Why in the heck do I need 8 hours (sometimes more) to feel like I am at my very best and other people are so lucky as to bounce around all over the place everyday, running on four?
The world ain't fair I tell you.
Sigh............

The Shortest Birthday in the History of Time!!!!!!

Yesterday was my mom's 40th birthday.
"I'm getting old," she says.
Uh-huh.
So I (and my sisters) threw her a surprise birthday party.
I spent SEVEN hours of preparation (buying things, decorating, cleaning, and lots of waiting) for a TEN MINUTE surprise birthday party!
(The reason it was so short is because my littlest sister had to make it to softball practice and Mama got home late.)
I'm not happy.
But I tried.
Maybe the 50th will be better.
One can only hope.

Now it's just Me

Elvis has passed.

I'm kind of upset but then again not.

I knew this day would come.
I'm burying him tonight in Taylor's backyard.

Right now he's in my freezer in a shoe box.
I don't think I'll get anymore pets for a while.

They all die.

I've still got Luna though.

Snow

It really snowed.
Usually when they threaten snow it never really happens and life just carries on as normal.
But I woke up this morning and my car was covered in two inches and it was still coming down!
I am not a fan of cold weather.
Everyone knows I would rather sweat than freeze.
I can't wait for summer.
