What do you do when the cable is out?

You finally get things done around the house you've been putting off!

Phil is working on my side of town for the rest of the week, and I told him yesterday that I would pick him up and take him to work, since he doesn't have his truck yet. So I set the alarm on my cell to go off at 4:30am, giving me 30 minutes to actually get my lazy ass out of bed. I am not used to getting up that early, its been awhile. I got in the shower, which woke me up, and got myself dressed and out the door. I forgot how nice early mornings can be. There wasn't a lot of traffic, which was nice, and the weather was beautiful. I felt surprisingly awake, of course getting to see Phil made my day, since I always miss him like crazy.

Once I dropped him off at work and got back home, I discovered that the cable was out, meaning no phone, television, and of course, no Internet. Now I don't care about the phone and the TV, but no Internet! You know me and my laptop, we're attached at the hip!

So I took a look at the bathroom, realizing I have been neglecting it, mostly because I hate cleaning the bathroom, so I got to work, then decided while I had the energy, I might as well clean the kitchen and the living room, dust, sweep and mop the floors, and take out the trash. Then I started some laundry and ran the dishwasher.

By the time I was done not only was the house sparkly clean, but the cable was back on! So I made myself some lunch and been relaxing here online, checking emails and whatnot. Phil should be getting off work fairly soon, so once he calls I will go pick him up and take him home. I wish that taking him home meant going home with him, but for right now this is just how it has to be. But that will change soon, and I am very excited about that. But as he told me last night and today, there is nothing worse then having someone in your heart, and not having them in your arms. He's such a sweetie.

I am thinking I might have to get up early more often. I have had more energy today that I have had in a long time. Usually when I wake up I am always so lethargic during the day and get nothing accomplished. It was nice to get everything done in the house this morning, and then having the afternoon to myself. And I get to see Phil again soon, and I can't wait!
