Colds, Moving, & Shopping/Clinical, Paying, & Playing

Mike: It's my second day with this cold, my bones are aching and I can't stop coughing. But other than that, I feel fine, except I'm very lonely. I don't know if you have noticed, but September is just right around the corner which means one month down and seven more to go!

I bought a pillow today since today is the first day that I have to stay here in our "new house". I also bought queen size blankets even though the loaner bed that I have is just a single bed; we can use the new blankets once our bed gets here. I spent about $90.00 on the blanket set, it came with two king size pillow cases, two regular pillow cases, spread sheet, flat sheet, and a woven blanket (all queen size). Now I'm going to buy grogercies, just items that I can microwave, since I don't have pots and pans yet. Our furniture will be here in about seven days so I will wait till then. That's all I'm buying, no more I promise :)

Olive: We had our clinical at the Detox center today. The morning was not busy, although we continually had things to do, from facilitating the twelve steps meeting, taking vitals signs, and talking to patients (which I found really interesting because I feel like I'm learning so much just by talking to my patients and listening to their life stories). The day was uneventful except for when I was doing an "intake"--I had a drunk Indian tell me (well, actually all the girls in the clinic) that he loves me/us--lol. It was hilarious! The lady cop that brought him in told him "I thought I'm the one you love?" after hearing him tell everyone that he loves us :)

I got home and started sorting and paying bills. Then, played with mija for a short while. I need to do my homework which is due tomorrow, but I don't have any motivation to do it, I don't know, I think I just need you here to give me some inspiration :)
