The Hot Mess is Messy-The Packing Report


So I'm trying to pack up all my shit. (Can I swear on here?) for Zambia, which I think I already talked about in a previous blog post.

The problem is that packing is hella pain in the ass. Mostly I just move things from one pile to the next and eventually the piles disappear but it takes forever. At least there are paths through my living room. I'm like an ant. Tiny and petite lifting things twice my weight.  The bookshelves are actually pretty empty, so that's a start.

I'm dreading the pile on top of my dresser and the one in the bathroom. I just seem to have an organizational system for my jewelry that's called, "piling."  So I dig around and sometimes lose things and sometimes FIND things. Like I just found these awesome gold earrings I'd forgotten about since I wore them last on a trip I took to Florida 2 years! It was a BONUS find!

Anyway, I better get crackin' because once CousinQ returns on Thursday, life will be full of excitement and good times and packing will seem extra boring.

Ms. NS,

You better get a friend or relative that is organized and a "tosser". Your packing would go much faster!

I would help, but being 8 months pregnant and in constant pain, I'm no good.

Surprise! What did Talie and Ms. Sequitur find? HA I meant Ms. NON-Sequitur of course.... How exciting, a teeny tiny (or tee-niny as my Grandma B says) little critter. A baby gecko is gracing her presence on my keyboard. Check out this amazing video footage taken immediately upon noticing the gecko/lizard/cold blooded animal: PS: I made it to work today. I continue to do a Christian Cross each time I arrive somewhere. If anyone knows another religious type sayings I can do or say when I am safe, I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if Jesus and I are vibing.  BIG HUGS Non-Sequitur!

SATURday

In the Park...I think it was the 4th of July. (Think that song by Chicago) Well, it's the 7th today- So how was everyone's 4th? How do you feel about your independence? I was thinking about that-- how come we always say, "Happy 4th!" and not "Happy Independence!" Wouldn't it seriously be an adventure if we were still part of England? Maybe we'd all have British accents and Canada and the US would all be like one big country. Maybe we'd all have health care? And calling my Canadian friends wouldn't be long distance! Yesss! Pets are so much work. Man, I'm babysitting these fish and they are exhausting. I mean, I have to feed them TWICE a day. Come on! Hee Hee. :) I suppose that's why I murdered my fish in college...I mean I didn't murder him/her I just forgot to feed him/her for like a week or so and then he/she died. Do fish REALLY have a gender? No. They are all just fish. Fish sex (sex like making love) would b...

Whoa! What a cool place this Mutinondo  was!  It is is a woodland, wilderness area NORTH EAST of Lusaka about 10 hours by bus. (Sorry about the yelling, that is a little shout out to my friend, you know who you are) (Also,  let me know if the link doesn't work) There were these gorgeous look-out points and mountains....well, large granite hills, but they were steep enough and we climbed up 2 of them. It took about 30 minutes to get to the top of each.  In the top video I'm reaching the top of the mountain!  You can hear our cool driver Mr. K cheering? :) me on!  These photos are in no order exactly, but I'll talk a little about each one! I think this one is on top of the first mountain, called Charlie's Rock This is horse poop (I know you are supposed to say scat in the wilderness, but I think horse poop is funnier. The place has some horses that we didn't ride) The view. Whoa. A little creature roaming around. He was furry and I wonder ...
