Monday, Monday

Well, Happy Monday everyone! :op

I've had this bad feeling that I just can't shake all day long. I think it's just that blech Monday feeling that pervades the beginnings of some weeks, though. In the interest of getting happy again, let's go over some good things:

Today is both my brother-in-law's birthday and my Dad's. Happy Birthday, you guys!

Next month, if Jason and I are careful - not even "very" careful, only "somewhat" careful - we're going to have our Chapter 13 bankruptcy paid off and done. After three years of paying that, and being completely non-existent to (and sometimes even reviled by) all lenders & financiers, we're going to be done. That's a good thing because that car that was given to us a year ago is getting more and more expensive to keep operational. Also because we won't be in bankruptcy anymore. That all by itself is quite satisfying.

Next weekend Jason and I are going camping, while Abigail stays with Grandma. I haven't gone anywhere in a long, long time and I'm completely thrilled with the prospect.

Friday, we're getting the AC fixed in the aforementioned car. It's going to cost $415, but in Sacramento, with a baby, not having AC isn't really an option.

What's not good, you ask? SQUIRRELS, THAT'S WHAT. Squirrels and small black and white cats are haunting my dreams, emptying my bird feeder and pooping everywhere. I didn't see them much this weekend, but that's because I was busier than hell. Jason dutifully reported to me that he was going after them with the Special Squirrel Sauce all Saturday morning, though. I'm seriously considering getting one of these.
