Keys
Mike locked his keys in the truck this morning. I vaguely remembered that my phone service used to have roadside assistance attached to it when I was in Dallas. So, I looked it up on the internet and it looks like we have it here too. I am paying an extra $2.99 a month for this service and I'm not really even sure why I chose to pay extra, because that really isn't in my nature. However, I'm sure thankful that I did! Thank goodness Cingular offered this option!

My Life Issues
It's funny how one minute you can be panicky and think that everything is crashing around you and then the next you can feel really great about the direction that things are taking. I think because of my recent home purchase, I started obsessing on the fact that everything could all fall apart and we would be unable to make ends meet. I guess I just had to put everything in perspective and realize that something could happen, but it will all work out in the end.
My sister said I was panicking because I've never had to work too hard for anything and I have a knack for being in the right place at the right time. I really don't think that is the case. I work on making things happen for myself. Some things come easier than others, but they all come because of things I put into place. I have had several let-downs, but looking back, they have almost all been in my best interest. Sometimes it takes a long time to realize that!
I've been self-obsessing for a while now. It's time for me to move on to obsessions about other things. I just don't really know what I should focus on right now. I should really obsess about unpacking, but I'm just plain tired of it! Maybe I should obsess about getting my weight under control! Oops! I think I'm back on self-absorption again.

Unpacking
I didn't realize how much STUFF we had. This house doesn't have the same amount of storage space or places to put knick knack things. I can't even have a garage sale to get rid of all the extra things until the neighborhood decides to have one. We only get two a year and everyone has to do their garage sales on the same weekend. We can't even get into our garage and our house is already full.
A couple of things got ruined in the storage place. I'm going to have to get a new coffee table and a couple of other things. I think it was time to get a new coffee table anyway. My husband said it looks like a new house with old furniture. It really isn't that bad, but our stuff doesn't fit the way it did in Dallas. We'll work it out though.
I was very lucky that my in-laws and husband's cousin came to help. I didn't have to rewash any dishes or glasses. That was a good thing because I didn't realize how many of those we had. My mother-in-law was getting on to my husband because some of the glasses still had price tags on them. I think that those were the ones that were left to me by my mom when she moved out of our old house! lol! I don't think I've ever actually bought any glasses. :)
I can now see why moving is one of the top stressers. I've never been one to freak out, worry much, or have panic attacks, but I can see that happening! I'm trying to keep everything into perspective. It's all going to be fine!
