Three Months...

So many things have been going through my head today, today marks the third month that's passed since my mom passed away. There's so many unanswered questions left floating around in my head. Too many, in my opinion but the only person that can answer those questions is gone and she's not coming back. So I have to find a way to let those questions rest while I try to move on with my life.
Being on my period has also made this day one of the worst so far, the fact that there's gloomy weather outside isn't helping either.
I talk to my mom through her Facebook, it's my way of communicating and before you say it yes I know she can't talk back. So what? That's my way so I don't care what anyone thinks of it. I've posted a screenshot of what I posted today.

So today I got up around nine and watched Hulu while Jessica slept in. She didn't get up until about 10:30 or 11. After she got up we gave me a bath, which I hate. I get so cold and it takes me so long to get warm again. It wasn't so bad today but I still got pretty cold. After that we went to Walmart (always fun). I didn't get anything that was on my list.. I couldn't remember any of them. Tomorrow I get to clean cages, sweep, go through more papers, burn papers, and set my mini fridge up in my building! Sounds awesome and fun.

I'm so totally loving the red hair, I don't have to worry about my dark roots so much now. I will probably get some golden highlights throughout the summer to lighten it up. My hair gets lighter when I'm in the sun a lot and lately I've been in the sun a bunch. I'm even starting to get my tan skin back. I was so tan before my wreck and I haven't been able to get it back. Of course the fact that I can't stay in the hot sun to much because I'll overheat doesn't help but I'm going to try to be outside more than normal. I just have to watch my body temperature and keep myself cool with fans, water, and the air conditioner. I received my last wheel and my sugar glider emergency kit in the mail today. Everything is finally coming along for me.
