I'm blogging tonight because I realize that people are still actually coming here and reading this crap blog after all the neglect I've given it lately. I do appreciate that people still visit.
See, I cycle my obsessions. Blogging and reading blogs are on the list, along with many others. Want the list? I'll do my best -- let's see... crocheting, quilting, sewing, PSP7, web design, reading, reading aloud, writing a book, video games (Sims, Harvest Moon, Pharaoh, Stronghold Crusader, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Majesty, Neopets, etc.), cleaning house (this one is rare), remodeling, drawing & painting.... the list goes on and on. Right now my head has been stuck in my monitor on Stronghold Crusader mostly, but I did also finish Jordan's afgan, and I'm sewing some fitted cloth diapers for him as well. I also get stuck on TV in the evenings while doing sewing and crochet -- especially Law & Order marathons or stuff on Court TV. Today I noticed that my obsession with Stronghold Crusader is waning. I've gotten stuck on a crusder mission that I can't win yet.
I was supposed to get "shrink-wrapped" today, but I called and rescheduled my appointment. I was so tired that I didn't think I should drive. I went back to bed and slept in until 11:30. Anyway, I feel like I will be fine until the end of next month -- hopefully. ;)
Oh, and for an Obi update, a couple of people have called this week saying they saw him -- couldn't catch him, though. But we went up to the park yesterday and put up some updated flyers. Both people saw him near the entrance, and he ran up a hill. We hiked up there yesterday -- okay, I only hiked halfway up there. I have the chigger bites to prove it. :P Scott and the boys hiked up to the top of the hill. I'm encouraged though. Surely some resourceful person will get motivated to catch him for the reward money. I'd be up there myself a lot more often if it weren't 25 miles away in the mountains. I just don't have the money to do that very often.
Ian is doing well. Since he got his wires off, he has been getting better at using his jaw. I'm just happy that he isn't in a lot of pain anymore. We took his cast off his arm today. I decided to just let him take it off, and so far so good.
I'm sure I could say a lot more, but it's past my bedtime. I'm going to go read some more of Return of the King. I only get to read at night. I'm too sleepy in the mornings, and the rest of the day the kids need my attention every couple of minutes.

Posted by: rachel at June 8, 2004 09:32 AMI wish the "shrink wrap" worked like that, Rachel. ;) As far as I can tell, going to a shrink only shrinks my depression. Actually, I think what he really shrinks is my guilt of not being perfect in every single way. The weird thing is that he sees both of my parents for depression as well. He knows why I am the way I am. The only thing he ever tells them about me is that he thinks I have wonderful coping skills. ;)
