All sorts of stuff!

I haven't been as good as little sister Lisa, who's been blogging just about every day. So I've got bits of this and that, rather random, to write about, but here goes.

I got the approval from my insurance company to have the Shockwave treatment on my left foot and it is scheduled for Feb. 22. Halleluia - I am miserable with this darn foot, so I'll be glad to get it over with. The bad thing is that I will be in the damn boot thing day and night during our trip to the beach - THE GREAT ESCAPE! But it won't exactly be "hanging out on the beach" weather, so I'll have to be content with sitting in the screened porch looking at the ocean. I can't wait - gonna be fun fun fun!

My romantic life is pretty non-existant these days. R that I mentioned previously, from Yahoo Personals has disappeared, so is obviously not interested. I've been emailed by another fellow from there, P, who seems interesting (and interested) but busy so not a lot of contact very often. And another fellow has emailed me but something seems off about him - can't quite put my finger on it. He's only44 (a bit young for me I think) and I suspect is looking just for a "good time", which of course is not what I would want. I HAVE, however, had several great phone conversations with B - the most recent one was for over 2 hours. He seems like a really nice guy, intelligent, loves music - especially contemporary Christian as I do, and he plays in a group. Problem is that he's about 3 hours or so away in South Carolina. But I really enjoy talking with him and plan to continue that. Will it ever come to anything more? Who knows at this point. (Sister Lisa, if you are reading this - this is the fellow who was visiting in the area at Christmas.)

I finished my income taxes last night and sent them in this morning and I'M GETTING MONEY BACK! Will wonders ever cease! I haven't had any kind of refund in years - so this is all because of becoming a homeowner last year and having all that mortgage interest. I badly need new living room furniture so that will be purchase #1. I would love to get a laptop so that is under consideration but I'll have to see what the furniture costs first. Of course, I should pay on my credit card but, gees, that's no fun! I've probably got a couple weeks to dream about what I'm going to do with the money but I'm going to start shopping (looking I mean).

Gonna do another post with a funny story from the past. Check it out.
