Pre-Spring Headache

Two days until the science fair project needs to be set up in the school gymnasium.  I have 17 print files that are "stuck" in wireless land.  I went to my one-to-one iMAC class today, and tomorrow I'll try to get at the print files.  The primary clue/key is to plug the printer to the computer so that the computer recognizes the physical printer before going with the wireless setup.  (This is not written down in iMAC materials or in printer setup information.)  I first heard it at the beauty shop, and it was restated today by my consultant.

"Joy" is a phone conversation with grandchildren and their parents.  I'm going away this weekend, but I haven't decided "where".  Then, I'll be gone in mid-March.  I did look at little houses (new construction) today, but they were in the wrong town.  I saw that I could live in something other than a ranch--a little two-story or whatever.

My current house needs to be put in order--equipped with things that I admire in the new construction I saw.  Do I have a problem with having a big house that looks exactly the way I want it to look versus a little house that costs as much as the improved big house--and in a less favorable location?  Suze Orman says spend like there is a depression.  Save enough cash so that you can carry on IF there is an interruption in monthly, expected income.  Loss of income could result in creditors reducing or eliminating credit lines.

I have a headache, but I talked with several people today who also had headaches.  Does it make me feel better to know that others have headaches too?  I don't think so.  I picked up Judith Sill's new book tonight.  I don't have the energy to start reading beyond the book blurbs.  I do have someone in mind that I want to share the book with IF I find it acceptable reading material.  I'm really pre-reading the book for this other person.

I need to paint.  I need to create.  I need to get beyond getting my basic house in order so that I can begin to do what I want.  I am eager to travel, and that is nothing new for later February.  I fondly recall the "getting out of town" for Pulaski weekend when our son was growing up.  Winter, no matter what the conditions, takes a toll on me.  I want to be in warm sunshine come this time of year.  I want to walk around without a coat.  I want to experience a different place.  I have to go...baffled!
