One major event down, one more to go.

It's Sunday and I'm sitting in the big chair with one cat on my legs fast alseep and another in the empty space next to me, also fast asleep. They are exhausted from my having forced them to play. They indulge me, you know, because I'm so clearly enthralled with a spare shoelace and that horrendous looking feather toy---it's the least they can do. LOL

So, Mal's wedding was yesterday and it was beautiful. I'm happy it is over and she is now off for her honeymoon and he stress we have been feeling leading up yesterday has faded. She mentioned at lunch between hair and makeup appointments yesterday that it will be nice to be able to have a conversation that doesn't involve wedding stuff. It will certainly be a change of pace, but I think we can adjust nicely.

Now, there is only the move left for this month. I'm well on my way to being packed up and will continue to finish over the course of this week. I managed to get the major moving items done last week--lease signing, utilities, change of address notification to the major areas--and now I will continue to work on the rest.

And I am, working on the "rest" that is. After a few rather sleepless nights, I got a good 10 in last night and have been lolling around today. No TV or radio either--just enjoying the quiet and wondering about some things that have bothered me in the last few days... I'm a fairly generous person, especially when it comes to my friends--there is not much that I have that I would not allow them to use, have or whatever, but it really upsets me when it is taken for granted and assumed. No, I don't mind when someone uses my laptop or even my home for something, but I appreciate being asked first. The policy has always been that you can help yourself to whatever is in my fridge, but just let me know. I don't think it is much to ask for a small consideration in the grand scheme of things. In a reverse situation, I would never consider infringing upon my friends without at least that consideration. It is very damning, and I would hate to have to change how I do things because of a small minority in my life who have little respect. Maybe it is just time to change that small minority?
