  1. dream last night: was at a resort (tropical? island?) with my mom.
  Took a shower in the corner of our suite, shampooed my hair, then
  picked up what I thought was conditioner, it was like pert or
  whatever; shampoo + conditioner. HM
  
  2. the LJPost (I think RTO is 'romancing the ordinary'?)
  
  :31am: [RTO] Self care/Home care
  She suggests that the way we care for our home reflects on how we
  care for ourselves. (This up there on the scariness scale with the
  idea that one's pets reflect one's own personality.) Laying it on
  thick about how we benefit from regarding housework as soulwork,
  literal therapy. By the end of it, at least our house is cleared.
  Perhaps too our head.
  
  The next essay, which while extra long I think can be merged here,
  deals with how many of us live our lives as if on hold. Specifically,
  waiting for love, marriage, family, etc. before really decorating. I
  suppose. Mostly though, I am waiting for a steady income. I bought my
  bedroom set back when I had one. I foolishly sold my nice round table
  when I decided it was too hard to move. (It had 2 leaves too, could
  go from gaming table to layout out full length SCA garb too. argh.) I
  should've grabbed back the daybed, and the dingy white couch that was
  at least long enough to sleep on. (it's a shame that I can't afford
  to replace the leather hand-me-down loveseat with an actual couch
  that would be close to as nice.)
  
  A lot of her advice is clearly for people who don't rent. I'd love to
  paint the windows, doors, and ugly kitchen molding. Rather, I'd love
  to see them miraculously be some other color. Preferably white, since
  none of them appear to be quality wood. But it seems like a big
  effort for a place I don't own.
  
  What of her suggestions I can do though is to try to deal with the
  crap. But I fear boxing up all the tchochkes as being seen as an
  invitation for my roommate to fill up the spaces again with his crap.
  A lot of my home decor is on hold until I get to live with someone
  who shares my tastes, or can afford to live alone.

1422they just won't let it go...

Me to J-Law:

I went to visit [brother A] at his new workplace last
night--they rent out moonwalks & sell party stuff
(pinatas, paper goods, etc.)

He gave me a DVD for my bday & told me alll about his
cartoon that he's making with some friends, and then
mentioned in passing that he'd run into MA [X's husband] at
Home Depot. MA was either pricing or buying a hot
tub (oh, they're so DESTITUTE![maybe that's what X
needed the $1500 for!!!]) and MA did kind of a
banty-rooster thing with him & told him some
'hellacious shit' about me. [brother A] said "Those people
are ASSHOLES. I'm glad you're not friends with them
anymore." He also said he wanted to kick MA's head
in, but I'm really glad he didn't. Those people....I
mean, I know the psychology of what they did to me and
why, but I wish they'd just let it go. They have
apparently mended their rift in uniting against me, so
why keep on with it? I'm just so very glad we dont'
have a lot of places & people in common, I don't like
hearing about them saying ugly shit to people I love.

J-Law :

It is very wrong of the [X family] to talk smack about you to your loved
ones. They want it to get back to you, which is why they do it.

Hot tub. Feh. Probably just wishful thinking on their part.
