WTF...No Rant???

There's so many things to rant about these days…The direction of our Government, the passage of the Health Care Bill (I'm for reform, but I'd like to know what's in the bill before it's actually passed..wouldn't you?), that Bastard Jesse James cheating on my girl Sandra Bullock (there's an idiot that would trade prime rib for hamburger ground from the oldest cow that expired from disease…), The continuing saga of Tiger Woods, The ongoing Furlough arguments in California,  The husband in the doghouse, etc. But today, I say we take a break from the ranting and sniff the roses.

Yes my Peeps, the sweet roses of Freedom!!!  I will be off of work until next Thursday, as I am posting some "furlough" and we have Caesar Chavez day off at work (don't start me ranting about that one please!!!).  The man is going with his "manly friends" to ride Quads in the sand (well, due to his knee surgery, he won't be riding, he'll be the designated cook) during spring break and that leaves me alone with my kitties and hair straightening process for at least 4 to 5 days?  OMG…how long has it been since I've had the house to myself? 

We bought our home in 91, and for the most part, of almost 20 years, we've had people living in the house with us longer than it just being the two of us.  My brother, My Mother, My Sister, the Boy (we don't count him though cuz he's ours!), His Mom.  Just when we breathe a sigh of relief…here comes someone ready to move back in. I usually work a 4 day, 10 hour shift so I would have my Mondays with just me in the house, doing housework, vacuuming naked, etc.  That hasn't happened in a long time.  I miss those days when I could enjoy the stillness, sip my coffee, go out on the deck and smell the pine. It was my day to do what I wanted. 

Freedom is back and I can't wait! Everything has been so heavy since last July, with the project implementation, the death of my mentor, death of two friends, two parents with hospital stays, husbands knee surgery, kitty's pancreatitis, etc.  I need to feel the stillness again.  Dizzy needs to be in touch with herself (nasty peeps...I didn't say touch myself…although….). I'm gonna make my espresso, read a book, watch trashie Girlie flix on the boob tube, drink with my BFF.  Ah….all is right in Dizzyland.  And so my friends, I hope your weekend is as enjoyable as mine will be (knocking on wood aka head).
