June 7 Jeff and I moved more than 50 boxes to April’s new home. It was such hard work! Right now she lives in an upstairs apartment. Jeff had a good idea to build a ramp which we did but still, it was a lot of lifting and driving. I felt sore the next day. I am going back on Monday till Tuesday. Then Jeff and I will go again on the 21st of June to move the rest. I hope that is it. It’s hard to do.

I have to give it to Jeff. He has those days off and he spent them helping April. He doesn’t complain. He’s such a good guy.

What really sucks that it was so hot out! The humidity was 100%. It was a sweaty mess. Ugh! I know the whole time I help her move but really it’s me moving her. It will be this way. One way to look at it. Gaining some muscle. =)

I have been thinking that maybe others think of me as icy. I don’t know why I have been thinking about it, lately. I guess that isn’t true. A couple of weeks ago I had a conversation with my neighbor. She was telling me she accidentally ran into a tree. You know clumsy but like on her way to her mailbox. Not in a vehicle or anything. Anyways she knocked down some eggs from the tree. An egg fell out of the nest means certain death for those baby birds. She said she felt horrible. Which just a week before I saw some eggs that have fallen out of the tree near where I was mowing. I didn’t mow them over by the way. I am not cruel but I felt bad for the little birdies. I told her that it’s sad that happens but you can’t put the eggs back in the nest. They still will be rejected by the mom. I said it so matter of factly too. She just gave me like yeah in response. Made me think of maybe I should have more sympathy.

In July we are going to one of Jeff’s co-worker friend’s cabin. I was thinking about the social thing I am going to. I am not in any way social at all. As you know I like to put up my walls and stay safely in my castle. I think that people think I am cold or maybe really shy. I also have gotten really, really good at my poker face when it comes to certain topics of conversations. Even though in my mind I have many opinions about whatever people are talking to me about. Years of practicing the poker face have gotten me to this point.

I also think should I care if people think of me as icy? The right answer is no but I am only human and do think about this from time to time. I would like to think that people see that I am a warm person and not a cold person.

I lost track of time! Again. Lol! Humans, right?! Anyways it was so hard last week to pack April’s stuff. We aren’t even close to being done. Think of someone’s house who is a little on the hoarding side. That’s April’s house. It’s not as bad as a hoarder house but well on its way. April and her brother used to live together. A lot of his stuff is there and that was way over 5 years ago. She keeps holding on to it and she keeps telling him to come and get it. He doesn’t live that far from her place. Yet he never has and I doubt he will now come and get his stuff. I would have said come get your stuff or the dumpster it will go. Sometimes April is way too nice. Now though it will go in the dumpster can’t move it with her.

So….SHE GOT THE PLACE SHE WANTED!!!! I am so happy for her. Her new place is not that far from where she lives now. Plus it’s a house she gets the lower half.

Last weekend was rummage sale extravaganza! I found a nice shirt, books, a blanket and this really cool paperweight.

It has real flowers in it. I have to find that strange thing when I do rummage sales. This was it for this year.

This was my week:

Situation bff April tells me she has to move. Why? Because the neighbor across the hall called the landlord. She claims that April’s apartment smells bad and she can smell it in the hall. This neighbor also hates April and this was the 3rd time she called to claim this. It looked bad for April because her mom made it so much worse than it needed to be! She always causes trouble. Her mom called the cops. What the hell are the cops going to do anyway? Because of this, they want April and her parents to move out. Thankfully they are letting her stay until the end of the month of June. Of course, her mom blames her for this even though it was her fault. She didn’t need to get involved. Her parents always make April the scapegoat for everything bad in their lives.

So all week been looking a place to live. It’s been hell! There is nothing to rent right now! So stressful! Plus no one will help her. It will be me and her packing her whole place. All I got to say is April likes to keep things (A LOT OF THINGS!). It will be tough.

I will go see her on Monday and stay for some days. We are going to go look at a place. I hope it works out because it solves all of her problems if she can get it. Fingers crossed.

Another thing, places are not requiring masks anymore. I feel to still wear my mask. I was standing in line at the pharmacy which is a place for sure people should wearing their masks, I feel. However, if people choose not to. Whom am I to tell them so? I would never and have never during this whole thing. Anyways standing in line with my mask on, the only one to have a mask on except staff. This woman is standing sort of next to me. Was chatting with the pharmacist. She was talking about she feels happier she doesn’t have to wear a mask. Then she looks directly at me and says “SOME people I guess didn’t get the memo that they don’t have to wear a mask. Since masks are ridiculous.” Mind you I was doing nothing but standing in line. I wasn’t telling people to wear masks. I wasn’t doing anything. So I look at her and said “Oh I am sorry. What country do we live in? Oh, that’s right, America I can do what I want!” Any other week I would have shrugged it off because I am not a confrontational person. I have been stressed for days trying to help April. So she got what she got. LOL! I wish people who just mind their own business. If a person is minding their own business why provoke? Oh well though it felt good to tell her off.

I did it! I cut off all of my hair.

Hair before:

I first put my hair in a ponytail and cut it off. It was fun! Then I cut all the long pieces as much as I could. Then Jeff buzzed my hair. I haven’t had this short first of all ever. But short hair in general 2015! It feels so nice.

First time in like forever I am not going to dye my hair. What you see is what it’s going to be. I feel liberated not to have to dye my hair because I feel a certain why about having white hair along with my black original hair color. It feels like to just be me and be happy with that.
