December 7, 2008 Okay. I'm totally over the pet sitting for a puppy thing. They are NEEDY little creatures! I am done with babies. Maybe after Erica gets a bit older but between her AND the puppy AND Kevin? I'm all tapped out. I've been reconnecting with a lot of old high school friends through Facebook lately. I do not have very many great memories of that time and indeed, seem to have forgotten a lot of stuff I did. Apparently, I used to take Peach Schnapps to gym class. I didn't remember that. Holy crap. Those brain cells definitely got zapped somewhere! Too bad, I could really use them now. Next: tree bought for $20 (score), it's about 8-9' tall. It's HUGE. I don't even have enough ornaments to decorate it. I do love all my handmade ornaments that I do have. Still have Mary's angel's that she made me, over 10 years ago! Still have the little cross stitch ornament that Lynda B made for me awhile back too. I have a crocheted snowflake but unfortunately, I do not remember the lovely person who sent that to me. Kate? maybe? I love it though. I wish I had about 8 more. ... We cooked a roast in the crockpot today with some Shiraz wine and other spices. GOOD STUFF. ... I'm sort of walking a fine line between being okay and being NOT okay. Stress, stress, stress. I hate going into a holiday season, for the SECOND year in a row, worrying about money to pay the bills let alone buying Christmas. Sucks, sucks, sucks. So, that's my main issue right now and I'm just trying not to be an uber bitch about everything which is not quite as easy as it should be. My brain needs to shut the hell up and take a chill pill or 10. I'm trying though. I really am, to have a good holiday season. It's always been difficult since my Gram died but I never really TRIED to enjoy it after that. This is not easy for me to do. It comes and goes in dribs and drabs. Hopefully, I'll get the hang of it and some money will come in and things will be okay until my new job starts. Which, is ALSO worrying me because I don't have a definitive start date and it is driving me CRAZY not knowing when I'm going to start the new job. In the meantime, just getting through the days and doing the outsource thing for the paper. God. The layoff couldn't have come at a WORSE damn time. I should be grateful that I at least have "something" but still, 9 years and then this. I am still really pissed about it. Obviously, I have some issues to work out. As usual.
