I am going to get a massage today.  I believe this will help in the quest for Ovalina and Sparky to move to Utica.  YES I KNOW that, in general, babies do not come from massages.  However, I am feeling so stressed that I'm afraid if Ovalina and Sparky do find a good house in a nice neighborhood, they may decide that Utica is such a turbulent city, they decide to wait for a few more months before moving in together. 

So I'm going to a private massage therapist this afternoon, recommended by F. after her amazing 2 hour massage, so I can become destressed.  If Utica still has a no vacancy sign this month, I'll be heading to the acupuncturist who serves the symphony. 

Also, Dave and I have decided to give up the cell phone for a housekeeper.  We've found some leads on cheaper cleaning options and I just do not have the time for regular cleaning this semester.  Our showers are becoming frightening.

We also received the almost final estimate on the yard work.  It's almost $2000 less than what we budgeted.  YAY!  We may be able to remodel the garage sooner rather than later now.  YAY YAY YAY!  (As long as we do it ourselves!!!)  :-) 

Today should be a calm day workwise.  I couldn't take too much more of anything else.
