Well I've never!

I've never written in my journal about the kind of day I had.  I suppose I'll try it and see how it goes:

Lately it's been difficult for me to get up in the a.m....  probably because I'm so overwhelmed by how much I still need to do before we move.

I pretty much sat around most of the early day and did things on the computer, made calls, etc.  But at one point I had such bad twitches that I was freaking my lesbian friend Amy out.  The problem was that my stomach  was twitching, so my whole body would move.  It really was like the times that people twich on purpose and they over-do it to make it obvious...  or at least it felt that way!  I'm just glad I didn't drink coffee.

In the afternoon I convinced my hub to go with me to pick up a fridge from someone on Freecycle for our garage and he agreed (amazing!).  He even went without really knowing where it was as I was only going by the memory from my one trip there in the dark of the night. 

It was beautiful just being with him by ourselves, without any appointments, any rushing, any plans...  He even thought I'd lied about the fridge just because I wanted to spend time with him, how cute is that?  Actually, that could be perceived as vain...

Anyway, we drove around forever and then I told him to take a couple of turns and lo and behold we found it.  The fridge is even working just fine!  How cool is that.  I highly recommend everyone to go to www.freecycle.org and sign up in their city.  If they don't have one, then start one for crying out loud!  You will then be able to get rid of those things that you don't want to pay to haul away and receive things that you've always wanted (someone today gave away a HUGE Yucca plant - I missed it by 20 minutes).  So, check it out.

Back to my day.  Took the hub to pick up my Harley (yay!  it's now running!!) and he rode it back home.  The first thing I did at the shop was start it up.  It was sooo cool hearing the rumble again, and feeling the strength of that bike under my butt.  I'd been away from it for so long!  I can't really describe the feeling any more without alienating a few people.  ;-)

I ended my day doing some cleaning, blogging, having dinner and running the dogs back inside before a major storm with the possibility of a tornado.

That's all.
