Hot water...

It's amazing how you take things like hot water for granted... till you are slightly rushed, trying to jump into the shower cause you have to get yourself to class and there isn't any! I truly don't like hot water heaters.... grumble...

Well Cindy got out of the house a little today which is good. She can't stay cooped up in the house sitting on the couch. She's gotta move around some and get her legs stronger again. So my mother dropped her off at a place to get her nails done and also a pedicure. I believe one of her closest friends was meeting her there and will be taking her home again. Unfortunately my mother is home calling the hot water heater guys to come and find the problem so when I return later I can take a nice hot shower. I'll probably run to the gym first since I already feel "icky".

For the first time in weeks my mother had nothing really to do and I thought it was a good thing. I told her to take a load off, go watch some tv, relax, maybe do a little reading but she looked so anxious and I doubt she'll sit still for long. I hope she does though. I'm worried about her. I feel that she has way too much going on, she's been on overload for too long and needs to unwind a whole bunch. I gave her the name and number of my therapist and I hope she calls him. I know she was sort of hinting towards it, so I made sure to grab one of his business cards and hand it over to her. She hid it away rather quick, like to keep it a secret that she's even getting it. There's no shame in seeing a therapist if you need one or feel like you need one, and theres absolutely NO shame in taking medications to calm you down if its necessary. I found that the two meds that I'm now on give me focus. I am doing better with reading, I retain what I read and I find that I'm not going into a test petrified to all hell. I hope my mother calls....

Well the basement is just about dried out. The washer and dryer are "A-okay" and so is the freezer down there. The water heater needed some repair and looks like we're not done with that struggle and I dont think the furniture is going to survive this disaster. It still smells down there too. It'll be a long time before my parents have their little sanctuary back. I know how much they love to go down there, unwind, doze off and relax to the tv. Ah... the tv is ok too. Thankfully.

Well its 2:46pm right now, I best get ready for my test in three minutes!!
