Standing Still

I figured it was time to catch up on some of the real things going on in my life. I am now officially ready to start looking for that part time job. I am nowhere near close to being finished with my bedroom cleaning however, I haven't even touched it in the past few days. The paperwork for my medical aid/application for that 3 day hospital stay is in (let's hope I get approved.)

I tried to BBQ tonight but didn't really have enough charcoal soo... I only did two ears of corn on the cob & two potatoes. I cooked the marinated chicken wings inside, but I didn't realize the wing tips should have been removed until after I marinated them. We ordered bread, soda and jalapeno poppers from my favorite pizza place "What-a-Pizza!" to go with the chicken wings (with wing tips) potatoes, corn and salad. My daughter told me tonight however, she is now as I was at her age anti-meat-on-the-bone.

I finally caught up with a former co-worker/friend, I don't really think I am going to hear from anyone I used to be friends/co-workers with anymore. That's OK, there comes a time when people need a break. This break has felt really good to me, I've been focusing on finding my center again - I lose it from time to time. I'm still having my fun though, catching up with other friends, going out for lunch and getting in some evening television.

The girl and I have been hanging out together, watching shows together (like Beauty & The Geek) and spending much needed mom/daughter time with each other. The apartment is clean, the bills are being caught up on, meals are actually being prepared/cooked inside the home and it's warm & quiet.
