The Master Cleanse + Easter Weekend = Bad Idea

I picked one of the worst weekends to attempt to do a fasting cleanse as I have no willpower.* Let’s face it, if I had willpower I’d be anorexic, as in my book, anorexia = willpower. The snack size chocolate covered cheesecake bites won this round… and they pummeled me. So perhaps I shall attempt this cleanse again… but we’ll have to see.

The movers come this week, so now I must pack everything in a few days time… but how long can my bedroom, bathroom and a few other odds and ends take to pack up? I mean really… famous last words, I know. But we shall see.

Le came over this weekend and while there, she had one of her rare epiphany moments (God bless her) and had the best suggestion for moving Sampson, my fish. I buy purified water at the store in one gallon water bottles and fill Sampson’s bowl with them. Le fabulously suggested I just empty out a bit of the water from one of the bottle and put Sampson directly into the bottle. I can open it to make sure he has air, but I can also close the lid, ensuring that he won’t spill out. Problem solved.

The other problem solved today is the stress I had been having about keeping my things at my mother house, in the half of her garage that she isn’t using. However as mom is getting married and her soon to be hubby will be utilizing that half of the garage, and I was going to need to get my things out a mere few weeks after I moved in.

This normally wouldn’t be a problem, but I was hoping to get away for a couple of weeks prior to finding a job and more permanent living arrangements… and doing so with all of my stuff consuming precious space at my soon-to-be-fuller mom’s house… just makes me look irresponsible. (Heaven forbid.) Alas, Public Storage saved the day today.

Ok I am off… I really have to get back to Weboggle (see below). I am addicted.
