Overworked...

I worked 38 hours in overtime this week.





I am feeling quite exhausted.





But I still took time to finally buy the 2 things that would make me totally assume my 30's :






Eye glasses and an ironing board.





My mom is so proud.





Meet the new me :







How about you : what made you finally assume your age ?

I can...







I can change an acceleration belt. By myself.

I can go through serious illness.

I can leave a violent and abusive relationship.

I can go through divorce.

I can put myself through school while working full time.

I can stop smoking.

I can battle addiction.

I can travel by myself.

I can speak 3 languages.

I can drink 25 vodka shots and not be sick.

I can take care of somebody other than myself.

I can bounce back after a big fall.



But I cannot, even to save my life, manage to pick wall colors for my new apartment. I just can't.



I need help.

Life...





I finally found an apartment !! Moving date : September 1st... Much shopping to do until then !



I also just signed my lease. And it's on a Post-it. And totally legal. I had it laminated ; that one I'll want to keep !









The apartment is on top of a hair salon and while I was signing the lease outside of the building, an employee came out an offered me discounts for the shop (note to self : your hair do look that bad). That's when I noticed the sign on the door : "Your hair is as flat as your ex in bed ? Book an appointment now" I already know I'll have a blast in that building.




Speaking of ex... My mom was helping me repack some boxes when she sudently screamed, turned beet red and left the room while telling me to do the job myself. Curious, I looked into the box she was working on. Yep, she found the Flashlight. Oups... !
