19 Weeks til 30: Friday

It's sunny and it's Friday, what more could a girl ask for?

Well, for starters, not to have a giant painful back spasm that's lasted since Monday morning.  Yup, I've been struggling through the week with the left side of my back knotted up and painful.  Ibuprofen isn't helping, my old T3's aren't dulling it, and ice/heat don't seem to help past the initial numbing or soothing.  Ah well, I get to see my chiropractor on Monday, I'm sure he'll fix me up!

Secondly:  I discovered that my lovely, fuzzy, cantankerous kitty miss S made a bit of a mess in the laundry room.  Granted, I should have noticed it at the time (2 or 3 nights ago), but it was dark, bedtime, and I had a book/bed to get to.  She knocked the liquid laundry detergent bottle off the shelf over the washer.  Any of you ever had to clean up something like that?  I recently left the lid of one of my face washes partially unscrewed, and it got tipped over on the counter.  The mess it leaves behind is just ghastly.  Despite being cleaning products, these items are almost impossible to clean up properly.  So my Friday night, along with back pain, will consist of moving the washing machine and wicker hamper to clean up the spilled soap.  At least the floor will be nice and clean?  Ah well, who could be mad at this face??

However, there's a sale on at Fabricana today only.  I'm so excited.  I haven't decided if I'm going right after work or if I'll wait and go with my mother, but either way, a fabric sale is something to look forward to! ;)  This is important because of the effort I'm making to attempt to be more feminine (along with the fitness goals, etcetera).  The goal is to wear skirts at least 3 days a week, so I need a few new skirts to add to the spring/summer rotation.  I'm hoping to find some bargains on nicer material so I don't have to spend a ton, and I already have 2 patterns picked out of my collection at home.  It's going to be so much fun, I love seeing how new garments turn out!

Over the weekend I'll be organizing and cleaning the house, and perhaps even tackling the ceiling issue again - we'll see.  I think I'll try to get a hike in as well if I have the energy/time/my back heals a bit more.

Fingers crossed that the weather stays nice and I get everything done!
