The Thing About Marbles

I feel like I'm slowly losing my mind.  I'm having trouble communicating (worse than usual)--I keep forgetting words when I'm talking.  Simple words that people use every day.  Worse, is that I forget the most important word in my sentence.  The one that makes the main point.
Some examples of words I had to have help remembering this week: storage closet, bells, fire, pudding, syllabus, computer, trash can, and some that I still can't remember.

It's not just words, though.  I've been forgetting a lot of things.  Like my name--I keep thinking it's Ringen, still.  And how to drive... I slow down on green and seem to not notice red.
I feel like life isn't even real right now.  Everything going on around me seems so strange.  And fleeting.

Pretty sure this is a sign of dehydration.  I'll be drinking more water, lest I cause a car accident or forget something important.  Like how to breathe.

Anton does side jobs for a couple who owns a few housing units here.  They asked him to serve a subpoena to some guy who won't pay rent and is avoiding them (a third party has to serve the subpoena, anyway).  He's a pretty evasive old guy.

On the bright side of life... we got a washer and dryer finally (to replace our old broken ones).  Sadly, they are not small enough for our old house so... we took the door off the bathroom... but I'd rather have a washer and dryer than a door on the bathroom in my house where I'm usually alone.
I had consigned to hang up a curtain or something, but Anton screwed the door back on so that it opens up outwardly instead of inwardly, and doesn't deal with the machinery in it's path.  Mr. Handy Man.

And nothing has made me happier than the weather lightening up.  Sunshine just gives me a buzz.  A good buzz.  :-)

Also, we now have a camera, so I will add some pictures.

 Traveling to Idaho Falls to hit up Olive Garden

We're setting Jana up with the guy in the blue... but she's gone on a few dates with a different Ukrainian, so maybe we were too slow in actually making it happen.  We'll see.

I know, I look like I just went to the dentist.

Trying on hats in the mall.



Anton started taking pictures as soon as he opened the package with the camera.  I was filing my nails.
