This is me: take it or leave it

I know me all too well

So, my daily projects aren't going as planned...But I honestly knew that to begin with! I still have half of my two bedrooms in my house set up and a stack of clothes folded and on my living room floor begging to be put in drawer! Or even in a basket. I even still have a load in the dryer. Nothing like walking all the way through the house after a shower to get some underwear. Oh the fun of it!
There is a reason for all of my projects not getting done. For one thing, I worked 12 1/2 hours yesterday on less than 3 hours of interrupted sleep. And it was a CRAZY day! I dealt with my first house fire. Luckily no one was hurt, but I'm not sure how bad the house ended up. I also stayed at my mom's one night. She really doesn't like staying there alone. Elisabeth stayed with her last night, and she tried to convince us to stay again tonight. Even thought I didn't get those projects done, I did find the perfect piece of artwork for my living room wall and some lamps that match my curtains. I'm finally starting to make this place feel more like a home. Decorating kinda sucks though sometimes. I don't always hang things straight the first time. And by the time I get around to punching holes in my walls, it's like midnight and I don't think the neighbors would like that all too much.
I did decide to take some time off work in a couple weeks. I have 5 days off in a row, starting April 14 and going through the 18th. I'm going to a BINGO event on the 16th for Relay for Life. I'm excited. Not that I ever win at BINGO, I just like the thrill of playing. And saying BINGO.....But you kinda have to win to say it or else people get mad. I also decided to take Elisabeth on a mini vacation. So, I booked us a room over night from the 17-18 at Cast Away Bay in Sandusky. It's that hotel with an indoor water park. It's run by Cedar Point, and it has an arcade, the Peanuts characters, and different daily attractions. I think we'll love it. The best part is that they have a child care area that you can put your kid in so you can go enjoy a massage or a facial or something. Yay! I can't wait. We're gonna go out and get Elisabeth a new bathing suit for the trip. She loves the water and it has so many different water areas and slides and stuff. I'm excited. I'll post pics after we get back! If you're interested, check it out at www.castawaybay.com. We're staying in a Dolphin room (the cheapest) and on a weekday, so it wasn't that bad. The hotel price includes entrance to the water park. It'll be nice to get away to someplace for a couple days. And this is perfect since we both love the water so much.
Well, for now that is all. Tomorrow I am giving a movie review. Something I think I'm gonna start doing weekly if possible. I joined Netflix, so I'll be watching a lot of movies that I've wanted to see and never got to see. So, I think I'll start reviewing them for people and hearing other people's thoughts and opinions on them. That'll be fun. Anyways...To bed for me. Talk to you later! Bye and GoodNight!
