the move
I've been here now since the 14th of July, in the same house as my inlaws. Things are great, don't get me wrong, but I need my space. I feel trapped, suffocated, and depressed. I walk from my inlaws to my house constantly, just to stare at it and imagine what it will look like once it's finished. The view is incredible, the valley and mountain sides are beautiful, so far up and so much to look at.
I've seen birds that I'm unable to name, flowers that I have never seen before, fireflies darting about the yard in the dark, chirps and buggy sounds never heard before. It's so wonderful here. So clean and open. So quiet , yet noisy with wildlife. I'm home. I know we made the right decision, it just sucks we aren't out on our own yet. The contractor is dragging their feet with my house !!!!!
I haven't worked since mid May, and I start working again on Monday. I have four days of orientation, then my shift begins. I'm not really looking forward to working every weekend , and every holiday, but....... yeah, feeling the urge to run far and fast from the kids. Love them to death, but REALLY need some space from them now too...lol
I got a new kitty ! He is absolutely adorable. A big puff ball of long soft fur that's orange and white. No he isn't striped, he's , .... beautiul. I've named him Cinnamon. He cost me a measly 30.00 ! That included the cost of fixing him, getting his shots, and bathed to make sure he is critter free. They said I could take another for only six more dollars. Man alive was I tempted..... Glenn would have skinned me. I was lucky to have him. I get to pick him up a week from Friday. This, I figured would give him the time to heal from his snipping on Wednesday, and hopefully enough time for me to be in my house. If not, kitty and I will be bunking together in my van :)
