Ive been away for a bit.. Hows everyone doing? What have you been up to?
Work has been pretty crazy for me! I have an interview next week that will allow me to move up within my company, which is really exciting. I got a promotion yesterday along with a raise!! Yay. And my biggest news.... Our puppy will be ready to come home April 18th. I cant tell you how long ive been waiting for this. Im overjoyed having a new member in my little family.
My second youngest sister graduates from high school this year, so Im heading out to visit her and the fam for that soon.
Depending on finances, I may be doing a trip with my cousin down the Oregon coast for a few weeks this summer.
Other than all that.. I havent been writing or doing much photography. With spring around the corner I am sure some new inspiration will come about.
Good to see you guys again. Id love to hear how everyones doing.

Been worrying about not having a job soon... Been busy just trying to enjoy life and go with the flow of things. Have been going to Giant Bomb.com and checking out video games. Always make time to check in here even though i have no creative energy at the moment... Still trying to find my chalk so i can respond to some of the post here...

Whats everyone up to? I want updates!!
As for myself..
Ive been watching the puppy like a hawk. She has a lot of learning to do. All of my free time is taken up by walks and training. I am moving up in my company. Ive got a ton of extra work on my plate so that I can be ready for the next promotion(this one is a HUGE jump for me!) Im kind of scared, but I know I can pull it off. I have been eating horrible, horrible food the last few months(mostly pop tarts and cereal) so im going back to my roots.. Making time to cook healthy, veggie-filled meals.
Thats pretty much it. Starting to finally enjoy the weather in Alberta! It snowed yesterday morning, but by this afternoon it was t-shirt weather again haha.

I tried a major come-back (to DS) in Jan but just failed....last poem I wrote was also in Jan, for a relative's funeral. I have been crafting though, making cards and ATCs and stuff for around the house. Feels like life is a bit on hold because we want to buy a new house but everything's moving really slowly. Not that I want to wish my life away of course.....have been spending tim ewith great pals, seen great movies, visited great European cities....shouldn't complain.....

well things are looking up - we found our dream home last weekend, won the bidding war, and paperwork is progressing. So some certainty at last :-)

Nothing at the mo, visiting my parents for a week. Pretty chill summer these couple of weeks, really enjoying it and especially because it may be the last carefree summer. Been to the Virgin Islands for a week (super duper awesome) and then spent a few days in Vegas for a wedding, going to Memphis for a 4th of July party with boyfriend's parents and relatives.

I've been raising hell. Went to jail for 6 months. I carried out my personal vendetta on myself and finally hit bottom. Now I'm collecting the pieces of whats left of my life and trying to move on. This past year has been the most life changing experience of my life. I wouldn't change a thing. I've missed all of you and missed this place a great deal as well. I hope everything is going well for everyone, be safe have fun. -Jared

Life has been quite the busy shit-show lately. Focused on survival for now.
A lot of the old interests I had back in my DS days have changed. Havent done writing or photography in ages. Just starting to get back into a little drawing and painting. Im still deep into my nature loving ways. I live at the gym. Diet and exercise are pretty big parts of my life... Getting some sweet muscle mass and strength going on! Clover is still kicking for those of you who remember the crazy dog. I have a wonderful 2 year old daughter that I do everything with. The man is busy working his life away.
Going through a few strange weeks here... Rediscovering old parts of myself that have long been hidden. Enjoying it for the most part.

Love of nature is something that never fades. Good to hear that Clover is still kicking turf. Raider is on his last year I believe. He is on pain pills now. I wish I could be so simple sometimes. Old and decrepit he is always smiling and chasing cats. I hope dad is able to spend more time at home soon. Good to hear from you Leash.

It's good to know Clover is well. Sabbath is still kicking around, too. I have cursed him to live until he's 25 I live in the shit-show, too. Oldest son OD'd on heroin. Thankfully he lived through it, but his sobriety didn't last long. Daughter boy crazy and turning 16 in 2 weeks (she was a toddler when you made this place, Leash!) Husband lost a 5 year contract. Getting ready to move. Cooking like I normally do in the fall, painting, doing some thread work and steeling myself to have about 1/3 of my upper and lower intestines removed thanks to the Sclero. Probably why I'm in a cooking frenzy - I'll be on liquids for awhile afterwards. Post a new pic of Winter, Leash. I'd love to see how much she's grown.
