I'm in a great mood! Got a lot of energy, got today, tomorrow, and Sunday off! Unfortunately I had to pay rent so I'm broke right now... I got a friend who owes me some money so I was hoping I could get her to pay me at least $40 of it so I can have one night out this week but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. So I'm sitting at home debating what to do with all this free time and energy! It's a little cold out, to bad it's not like it was last weekend when it was in the 70's at the coast! If it were I would totally be at the beach! Oh well...

How am I today? Well, I'm barely hanging on and just hoping to stay in my room with no interruptions (that won’t happen!) and keep any personal or phone contact with anyone to a minimum. I won’t go into details as that would take a LONG time but it started Monday and wasn't going great and as expected it only got worse last night at my therapy session that my therapist invited my parents to, evidently they had 'concerns' and all that came of it was my mom saying I'm constantly lying to her (which I'm not) and everything I do is because I am mad at her (which I'm not) and trying to get revenge on her and hurt her (which isn't true). I've done the complete opposite my entire life but evidently it doesn't matter to her, she has her mind made up. It hit me late last night that you know what, I've spent my entire life trying to not upset my parents and I've done everything they've ever asked me to do and it's never enough and although I have a huge loyalty and love for my family it looks like I just might have to give that all up. I don't want to, but it's at a point where anything positive I say about my parents "I'm lying" and if I have anything negative to say it's because I'm "trying to hurt them". So I'm just over it. I've spent a lot of energy and time on this relationship and it's just not worth it to me anymore. I've tried super hard but it's finally at a point where it's not worth it to me to go through this. Never thought I'd get to this point but here we are...

So today I'm not doing good, but a little better then yesterday. I am just hoping to be left alone by my roommates though but we'll see...

Time to start looking after #1 hamsandwizh since trying so hard to please others is affecting your own happiness...time to do things for yourself that makes you happy

Hey I told you I had the influenza.... I didn't know it was a computer virus though..... Sorry.

I'm actually almost all over my bout of the influenza, spent the day (since the crack of dawn 7:45 am not that early) in and out all day doing my 'rakey'. I live on 2 acres of land divided into 5 'yards' each with nice brick and/or stone paths... plus the driveway, I moved about 20-22 large wheel-barrel full of leaves to the garden.

This is the type of wheel barrel I have:

(mine didn't come with a lady in it ) so this might give you an idea of how many trees I have to clean up after (Life is harsh in the woodlands for us elves).

Its about 1:45 pm, so I have been at it for 6 hours... Lots of leaves, lots of rakey. and the trees are no where done with leaf dropping. By Janurary (when they are done) My garden plot will have between 3 to 4 feet of leaves spread out over it. Its about 20' x 25' or 500 square feet, so we are looking at about 1500 to 2000 cubic feet of leaves.

I still love my trees though:tongue:.
