A brief timeline...

About two weeks ago, I began to catch a cold.

Last Wednesday, with the cold getting worse, I saw the ad for the horse farm job.

I went over there that day

Went back again the next day, Thursday, and they told me I was hired and to come back at 7am.

Later that night, it snowed 8".

Next day, I went to work at the horse farm for the first time.

The next day (Saturday), my little once-a-month terrorist/visitor showed up. (One interesting sidenote: Due to being broke as hell (so far), I was kinda worried about this month's go-round with that. I didn't have the money to buy "cotton corks", as it were, so I hunted around and found 10. It ended with two left to go. *whew- wiping forehead* Thank you, Lord.... both for finding enough and not needing all of them.)

The next day, Sunday, while battling the worsening cold which had parked a tractor-trailer on my chest AND my little terrorist buddy, my left shoulder decided to take a powder on me and I couldn't turn my head to the left a damned bit. Hell, moving my shoulders or arms at ALL hurt like hell.

Monday I took a handful of Ibuprofen and my shoulder backed off some.
Tuesday my little terrorist buddy fucked off... be nice if it was "for good".
Wednesday the tractor-trailer has been traded in for a Volkswagon and I once again have use of my neck/shoulder/arms.

NOW, I'm cleaning the house, doing dishes, about to do a load of laundry, mop the kitchen floor and crap like that.

Ain't been doin' much of that shit since last week.
All I did was cook, mostly.

Oh, and I got my sleep schedule totally fubar-ed, of course, but... that's nuttin' new, is it?

See, what I've been doing every day is this: Go to the horse farm at 7am. Clean about a dozen stalls. (Oh, and anybody who has anything to do with horses that DOESN'T have something to do with horseshit is NOT a real horseman. Most likely what they are is a yuppie-shitheel who only wants enough to do with horses to ride and use them, not take care of them... the kind of people who go to "horse facilities", not barns... know what I mean? Horses and shit... can't have one without the other, if you're FOR REAL about it...)
Anyway... I do my shit at that farm.
Then, I go to the farm my horses live on and clean more stalls. At least two, maybe as many as five, depending on what Larry's wife has gotten done. If hers need doing when I do mine, I do hers, too.
What the hell, ya know?
I am a "professional", after all... *sardonic grin*

Then, I come home, putz around at re-arranging shit (as opposed to actually cleaning), then go to sleep for a few hours, get up, cook, fuck around, sleep some more on the livingroom floor, usually, then get up, clean a little something or other and go to the horse farm and start all over again.

Between the cold from hell, the terrorist visitor, worrying about money (among other "green" things) and the desire, if not the strength of will, to get the houseshit done, it's no wonder I got all fricked up with sleep. I'm a night person to the nth degree to begin with. Always have been.

Aaanyway... I'm gettin' it done now.
I just went to get a cuppa coffee a minute ago and, while I was there, I went ahead and mopped the kitchen floor, so that's done. As are the dishes.

Laundry's next.
After I start my "Daria" tape.

Then, vacuuming.

Then, I'll probably lay down for a few and go to the farm and....
you know.

Or maybe I'll bake a cake.
Carrot with vanilla icing.
This would be easier to do, of course, if my retarded cats hadn'ta broken my last Corelleware bowl.
It was my big one.
It was tan, with a white wheat design around the outside. I got it from Dad years ago. It's survived all this time with me, moves out the ass, and now it's gone.
Detonated on the floor like a big, tan bomb.
Stupid fur-bearing boneheads.

Okay.
Just started Daria, so now I'm off.
Start a load of wash.
Vacuum.
Maybe bake a cake.

We shall see.

Meantime, I need a BOWL. (For those who're wondering, I mean BOTH... *grin*)

Peace, y'all....
