Diary of An Accidental Housewife ....the saga continues

So... thought I would get a white chocolate mocha (my new vice) at Starbucks after successfully having my neck adjusted at ye ol' chiropractor's office when I spotted a nail salon recommended by a friend of mine. Now mind you...I have never had a professional manicure in my life. Well....you guessed it. Got one today. The gal tried to talk me into a pedi too. You have to draw the line somewhere. So I declined that.

Yep, first manicure at age 55. What's gotten into me???

Diary of an Accidental Housewife....vents, rants and other musings about life.

Well on January 14th of this year, I unexpectedly moved from being a bank receptionist to being an unemployed receptionist. People have asked if I am bored being at home.Far from being bored, since then my life has been a whirlwind of activity. Seriously! I am applying for jobs, have applied for unemployment and am generally enjoying the good life of being an "unexpected housewife."

As most ladies who have worked full-time are well aware, when you're not at home, stuff has a tendency to uh....shall we say...pile up. And even more so, if you tend to be a "mess-pot" like myself. Currently, I am slowly and sytematically going through drawers etc. straightening and cleaning out.  My closet is a "work in progress." Prior to my recent efforts on its behalf, it resembled the "before" on some type of TV show where S.W.A.T. team of overly organized women come in and rescue the hapless unorganized victim! So....we take it from there. I am in prayer concerning my lifestyle change and await the Lord's direction. :-)
