I'm glad that the estate will be settled this Saturday.
I'm glad that the estate will be settled this Saturday. It was so overwhelming for me financially, energy and with time. I think about it and it stresses me out. My friend Carol and I are hooking up to do the transfer of the car and I get payment this Saturday. I will be there when she gets the car insurance as she wants to drive it right away. After that on Monday I will call the bank and pay the balance of the car loan. I can wash my hands of the entire estate. It sucks when the person dies without a will. It makes everything so difficult. It is all the red tape with the legal aspects of it and with the banks. It is sad in a way because that is the last of Smokey's things I have to deal with because I have life interest in the apartment. Seeing the car go will be sad as it was Smokey's baby that is for sure. He took real good car of the car. I think that is why I am sad now. Smokey's baby will be gone soon. For me, it was just a red elephant on my shoulders. The sooner it will be gone the better it will be for me. Now the empty parking space can be used for Dave or my visitors instead of using the visitor's spot, there will always be one available. It is mine. It will the end of an era when the red car goes. Now its a new beginning for me and my life. I hope it will be a good one. Life is never boring. You never know what is around the corner.
I went bra shopping at La Senza today. Dave had given me a La Senza card for Christmas. There was a fitter there that helped me greatly. When you have a bra that fits perfectly, it feels so good. It also makes me feel so fat and out of shape. I am not the girl I used to be that is for sure. Now I have a womanly figure. I did gain weight living with Smokey. He did not like it much. Smokey pointed out to me that I had gained weight. He was so concerned about my weight. It bothered me a lot. I never admitted to him but he was right, I had gained weight. Dave says I could lose ten pounds. I said I like myself the way I am and will not change. He is right though and I could afford to lose between 10-20 pounds. It is not easy losing weight. I do not know how people do it. I have started to do some exercises. I either do my exercises at home or go for a walk. Either way it is a lot healthier than being a couch potato. At least it is a start to being healthy. I try to eat healthy but it does not work all the time.
I am proud of myself. I bought a cheap cork board. I wanted to put it in a picture frame without glass on my desk. I found an old 8 x 11 frame. After fooling around with it for awhile, I got it to fit. Now I have a cork board on my desk. It is just for small notes that I leave myself. I already have a cork board hanging on the wall in the tiny hallway between the living room & kitchen but near the door to go out. It comes in handy. I have a calendar on it and on it I write what I do each day and how many resumes I got out.
I hope all goes well for me this Saturday. Also, Lisa called and I get to babysit Tyson for a few days. I really enjoy babysitting Tyson. It lights up my hold day when I get to spend some time with my grandson. He is the light of my life. He always smiles when he sees me and it warms the cockles of my heart.
I hope everyone is having a good day. Talk to you soon from Diane B.
