A list of things that are getting under my skin......

1. Bell Canada. They have been on my dooms-day list in the past but it's worse than ever. I've had my account for over 4 months now and I still have not recieved one bill yet. I've called them numerous times and each time they reassure me that they are resending the bills but I never receive them. When I try and make an account on their website, I go in circles and can never fully registar for online bill payment. I got my account number out of one Bell lacky and tried to set up bill payment through my online banking. Cross your fingers that this works cause the $300 bill looming over my head is killing me.

2. Bathroom Tile Project. I've been putting tiles in my bathroom and it has taken way longer than I had projected. I've been bathing instead of showering and it sucks. As well, I'm a bit of a perfectionist and although I should let up a bit considering it's the first time I've ever tiled, the corners in my bathtub do not line up exactly. Others tell me it looks good- but I know it's a little shaddy.

3. Cat named Inu. My cat likes to jump on my head in the morning when he is hungry. He'll bite my ears and make growling noises until I get up. Then he'll attack my feet all the way to the kitchen until he's happy and feed.

4. Lack of Job. I am starting to feel the strain (both in the wallet and in the head) of being unemployed. Although I keep busy, it's frustrating to put out resumes and not hear back. Perhaps it's my answering machine. It's been acting up. *sigh*

5. Lawn Care. It takes over two hours to mow my lawn with a riding lawn mower and about the same amount of time is needed with a weed wacker. My flower beds are in disarray and I have too many logs/fallen trees just laying around waiting for a chain-saw to chew them up. I lost a bolt on my chain-saw and have to replace it before I can do this. Specialty store to buy specialty part :( As well, fall is here leading quickly enough to winter and I still have to split a big pile of logs. (My muscles already hurt thinking about it)

On an up note: It's a beautiful day and I can put my laundry on the line. Mmmm fresh laundry.

Everyone hates Bell it seems. They are hooking up my phone this weekend remotely, but maybe after that I will go elsewhere to avoid aggravation. I sympathize with the lack of job problem. I really hope you find something soon and not just anything, but a good job suited to you. Believe me, someone will be lucky to have you as an employee.
