Maybe Going Home

Written on Sunday, September 21st, 2008 @ 5:57pm

After waiting patiently for a month now, I finally got a letter in the mail from the Plastic Surgery Center…

Dear Cristina, We have received an approval for your surgery with Dr. Hackert. Please call me to look at scheduling options available. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Wooo! I’m calling tomorrow to figure things out. I want this surgery done as soon as possible. One thing’s for sure it will definitely catch the eye of whoever weighs me at the next Weight Watchers meeting after the surgery!

I don’t think I’ve mentioned this here yet, but we have a situation that might be causing us (Joshua and myself) to pack our bags and move back home. We already decided awhile ago that we would eventually move back (after Joshua had all of his debts from school paid off), but the opportunity might be coming up within the year. The dealership that Joshua works for is in the process of being sold, and the new owners will have to bring the dealership up to date cosmetically; therefore Joshua and a good chunk of the staff could possibly be laid off for construction. Nothing is for sure and no one is allowed to talk about it, so until something happens we just have to keep things normal.

I told my grandparents about this on Thursday, and my grandma flipped out. She does not want us to move back because for one thing she can’t understand how anyone would want to live anywhere else other than Marin County. She thinks because we have free rent it means life is great. Too bad everything ELSE is beyond expensive. Plus, I’m convinced Joshua, my grandparents, and myself are the only Republicans in this county.

I really want to move back. It would be a little bothersome having to move and whatnot, but I really miss home.

Home is Where My Shops Are

I don’t know if it’s because I decided to wear heels for the first time in months or what, but I got a nasty corn on my right index toe. Hurt’s like a bee-yatch. At first I thought it was just dry skin being a pain (haha no pun intended), but after filing and putting some pain reliever on it I realized what it truly was. Luckily I had some Dr. Scholl’s For Her Corn Remover pads (I’ve had this problem before if I slack in using foot scrub and lotion on my feet) so now my toe is all bandaged up. Luckily it’s pretty much the end of flip-flop season. Hello boots!

Today I am off to my hometown where I’m staying till Saturday. I go for round two of Gardasil tomorrow which is the reason I am going up. Plus I need someone to take me there because I felt two of the side-effects last time so I don’t want to be fainting behind the wheel.

Other goals of my trip include getting some well-needed beauty products at Ulta, another pair of jeans and a belt from Mervyn’s since my current pair keep falling off (don’t get too excited I’ve only lost 2.6 lbs), groceries, and household items from either Wal-Mart, Target, or K-Mart since I have all three close by. Yeah, I miss home.

Anyway, I need to get some laundry done before I leave. Tootles!
