bad days, good friends

Once again, I did not get back into the swing of things when it came to blogging on a regular basis since my last post.
I've had a lot going on, nothing good and haven't really felt like sitting down and blogging about the bummers in my life.
I've had some issues at my house-flooding, sewer back up, plumbers being to the house twice in the past week for hours upon hours into the night and day and now I have been with out power/heat since Tuesday evening with power lines down in my yard and on my roof and probably won't get it back until Saturday or Sunday.
Luckily, I have nice neighbors who ran an extension cord from their garage so I could use a space heater until I couldn't take it any longer and went to Ravi and Stephanie's for the night. Ravi is always saying we should have a sleep over so what better time to have one than when you've been alone for a couple days and in desperate need of friends!! They made me hot, yummy food and coffee and gave a warm bed to sleep in.
On top of their kindness, my cousin was nice enough to pick up Monty on his way up north and drop him off at my parents house so he wouldn't destroy Ravi and Stephanie's house after being cooped up with me for two days!

This morning I went to the gym to work off some of my pent up energy/frustration only to find after taking my shower that their hair dryers were broken...boo!! I had to just hang out in the locker room until my hair was dry enough that my flat iron would finish the drying process. It is just not my week!!
Besides the bad weather and house issues, my Grammy passed away a few weeks ago and while we all knew it was coming and that she was miserable and was ready, it was still shocking when it did happen and I haven't really dealt with it yet.
Not to mention I had to spend time with family who are not my biggest fans. At a time when we should all be there for eachother, I just got mean looks, ignored, talked about and just made to feel like crap.

Other than all that I've just been working and working out like usual. I have big plans of starting my spring/summer workout routines and can't wait to get more into them, I always feel better when I feel like I've kicked my ass at the gym.

I applied for a job that I think I would really enjoy over the weekend, but haven't heard anything. I'm hoping the interview process has just been delayed because of the horrible ice storm we had the last couple days and that I hear from them soon.

I've also got a bit more done at the house as far as decorating goes. It feels like it is taking me forever and I just want it done but I don't have everything I need yet since it takes money and I'm a little low on it.
I am happy with how everything is coming together though and I hope I can find the last little things I need in the near future so that I can have a belated house warming party!!

Its almost time for me to leave work and I'm hoping that when I stop back by my house that the power is on, but I'm not getting my hopes up since I think it is just me in my neighborhood without and they're focusing on large outages first and individuals last...sucks for me.

I hope anyone else who has had to deal with this storm is safe and warm!!
