That last post...

I had been trying to post forEVER, but there was something wrong with the java shit on this computer.

Work and life have been so busy that I haven't had much time at all to devote to blogging. I've kind of gotten out of it, obviously. But I still like to come by and post a little something here and there.

Here is a quick list of things that have gone on in the last few months.

~I am THRILLED that we are through the holidays. I was not in the mood for them at all this year. Once again I didn't even decorate. We got through them and they were okay.

~Still snowboarding here and there, but not as much. Plus, this is a shitty winter. Glad I didn't buy a season pass. Still learning and getting better and better though. Slow and steady!

~Ron is still out of work but joined the union and is hoping to be working by spring. *crossing figners, toes and everything else.

~My job is going fine and I am busy full time.

~I have a new pet sitting/dog walking gig for a very sweet older woman with hip problems. I am helping her out a lot by walking her 3 dogs 3 times a week. She is paying me nicely, too. I really enjoy helping her though, and would do it for free, but a little extra cash is always nice. My friend Lucy referred me to her and I am so grateful.

~The pets are okay, but we had a loss last week. Punkin' the lovie suddenly passed. We think it was an anuerysm due to head trauma he suffered a few years ago. Very sad and we miss him a lot. Going to look into rescuing another male when the time is right. I love having a nice flock for Pickles lovie to enjoy.

~A good long distance friend of mine killed herself in early January. I had actually met her on the internet. We talked and wrote to each other a lot. I had never developed such a great relationship with someone I met on the internet. We connected. She was an awesome and very interesting person. I am very sad that she was in so much pain and that she is gone. I am also angry at her for being so selfish. I miss you, damnit!

~Speaking of friends, many of mine seem to be changing. I am losing contact with a few. I have given up on those who can't take the time to contact me. I am tired of always being the one making the effort. Goodbye, assholes.

~I still can't find creativity... I am not in the mood. But I doodle here and there so that's better than nothing I guess.

That's about all for now. I need to work. Just thought I'd take my lunch time to scribble some here.
