Time keeps passing


Funny... I'm supposed to be writing a blog for my work website and I'm here instead. I must get it done though, while I finally have some time. It's been a very busy summer at work and I've been working full time hours. I can finally afford to have a little fun with my money. Just a little fun though. Ron has been back to work for a while, which has really helped as well. I'm hoping he will continue to work, but am dreading his going back to nights in the fall. I've had him home in the evenings for the past 8 months and it's going to be hard to get used to him being gone again. I'll learn to enjoy my own company (I love alone time, really) and independence once more. I'm not alone anyway, I've got cats and birds to keep me company.
I always have to marvel at how time passes, especially since I'm not writing in here as often anymore. Last time I wrote in here was MAY?! Whutt??? Two months went by in a flash. Before I know it it's gonna be fall again. We haven't even made it to the beach or gone camping yet. No fun trips for us this year. Actually, we did go to a Soundgarden concert last week, which was so very fun. Also, Ron is planning on taking me to SeaWorld in late August. I haven't been there since I was about 12 and he has never been there, so it should be a blast. He's also going to get me in to swim with the dolphins! I'm such a nerd, but I've always wanted to do that. I wanted to do it in Hawaii, but that'll come someday I guess. I'm happy to get a chance to do it no matter where it is. We also have a 'Hawaii Fund' going, so maybe I'll get to see that place some day before it becomes completely overcrowded with tourists and their brats. All I can say is that I'm tired of watching others go there who don't even appreciate it like I would (read extremely jealous). My last boss went to Hawaii with her spoiled older daughter a few years ago and I got to see pictures of them relaxing, enjoying the beauty and even swimming with rays. Then I get to see pics of my current boss' trip there and his spoiled kids swimming with dolphins. GAH. I have to think that it will happen, I just have to be positive and make it happen.
I'm also trying my damndest not to let my art go to hell. I've been so uninspired these days. I wish I could enjoy it like I used to. I'm continuing to work on another project and hope to get it done soon. I also hope it goes somewhere this time, maybe even gets published. That would be wonderful. I have to continue to try to get published, no matter how long it takes or how old I get. I'm too good to let it go.
I suppose I should get back to working on my work blog. I want to get a good chunk hammered out before I go to lunch. I'll try to update here a little more than every few months.
Later!
