Well, plans for my trip to Oakland fell through. I was SUPER disappointed because I'm getting "cabin fever" being stuck in this apartment all day, no car and no job. Most of the time, no money, either. (lol) But, I put my nose to the grindstone again this morning and went out to the web for another day of job searching. Found more exciting things today then I have in the last five days, so I...remain hopeful.
The bright side of yesterday and this morning was being able to spend some time with Carla. It had been so very long since we'd seen eachother and we got the chance to catch up, talk story, and just really enjoy eachother's company. I cooked us dinner, we sat and talked until 2am and then fell asleep. We looked at her wedding album (One of the two weddings...lol) and I saw myself with my 90's hairdo...sitting with a man I don't even remember, but apparently he was my "date". (lol) I'm gettin old, I have such memory loss it's embarassing. (Gotta keep the pin code to my atm card in my cell phone...lol)
Forrest and Gracyn just got a puppy. His name is GER (gur), if they don't change it again in the next couple of days. He's brand new and a miniature chihuahua. (Didja even know they came smaller than the orignal's?) This will be good for Forrest, help him to learn responsibility and nurturing. The puppy is so cute, but...I'm not pickin up poop or sprayin down pee. Feel me?
I miss Gracyn alot, and my mother is trying her best to convince me to let her "keep" Gracyn, until we're settled into our own home. As most of you know, this isn't my first time around this conversation with Roz...sometimes I get the idea that she thinks I might just say, "You know what, Mom, I know how much you love her and...you can just keep her. We'll visit occassionally". Never. NEVER. I love that little girl, love both of my kids, and giving her to my parents (just because they adore her) isn't in the cards for me.
(Can I get an AMEN?)
Anyhoo, this is all for now, time to go eat my meal for the day. (Haven't really had much of an appetite lately)
