No Promises

I have commitment issues when it comes to journaling. Whenever I start a new journal I have the BEST intentions of diligently documenting my thoughts, ideas, experiences, etc. It is very therapeutic for me. It helps for me to read what crazy things are in my head - it makes me realize what the problem really is and that I'm really not that insane actually. However, eventually, the whole project gets tossed to the side. Maybe I have journaling A.D.D. Nah, I'm just lazy.

I guess I should give a little insight on who I am incase someone reads this journal.

I am a childfree 26 year old female living blissfully *snort* in North Carolina with my husband and 7 animals.  We have two dogs (Zoey and Lilah), 4 cats (Maggie, Punkin, Isis, and Lex), and 1 fish (Toshi).  Our last rat died in March.  Being ratless has been very hard on me.  However, I have chosen to remain ratless for a while.  I have lost 7 rats in the last year and my heart can't take anymore right now. I need time to heal...and forget.  Their life spans are just too short!  Our hands are quite full with the bunch we are taking care of now anyways. Lilah is an absolute mess!  She gets into everything.  We adopted her last month.  Man, did we get more than we bargained for. I'm actually loving every minute of it though.

I love to read, but haven't in ages. I can't even tell you the last book I read. I am trying to find time to start this wonderful hobby again. I swear the only things I read anymore are on the internet. That has got to change!  I am currently learning to knit. It has been quite fun. I have made anything spectacular yet, but I'm definitely getting the hang of it - if the cats would just leave my yarn and needles alone! RIGHT!
