Re: Okay...time for updates...


Well hey, y'all. :) I moved in October or November. Got a new boyfriend
who was to be the be-all, end-all, but alas - he is as crazy as I am. We
prop each other up like a couple of 3-legged chairs. LOL. He moved out
on 12/1. I survived. I didn't hear a word from him and was very hurt
about it, but I survived. Then on Christmas Eve he called and came over.
Boy were my kids ever mad, but if there is one thing he's taught me,
it's to be SELFISH for once - and not in a bad way, but in a way that
takes care of ME. I had so many doormat years that it has been hard for
me, but I'm learning. He came back the day after Christmas and has been
here ever since. I don't know if that's bad or good, but we are making
it. When he lived here before, we had major sleep issues - those of you
who live alone, beware of sleeping in the same bed with somebody
(especially somebody on CPAP). It can be terrible - but since he has
been living here again, we've been okay with it.

Work is BAD. I have no work and my goal today is to find another IC
position so that I can tread water and figure out what's going to happen
with the two companies I work for, before I make a commitment. Anybody
got any work? I have about 200 years' experience, LOL. I'm even thinking
about a full-time gig. I'd do something other than MT but I don't know
how to do anything else.

BF, my daughter, grandson and I live in a small house right up on the
road. I can see who leaves Susie's store with beer, and when the
gasoline prices change. It's very entertaining, in that way. I have no
pets and don't want any right now. I don't think I'm capable of even
remembering to feed a goldfish.

But - for all that whining - I am more content than I have ever been in
my life. I have that "normal" life I always wanted. DH and I were never
still for a minute, and now I watch TV every night, which is kind of
amazing. Of course I will probably wind up working some in the evenings,
but that will be okay too -- I did it for years.

I'm glad you started this, Jeannie. I wonder about everybody, every
day.
