It's been a really long time since I updated this thing, mostly because whenever I am online I feel uninspired and because I just haven't been online much. There have been other things to do, people to see and a new puppy to train. Yes, I did just say a new puppy. Last Monday I got a puppy (finally) because I have been wanting one since moving out of my mom's house again in August. I found that I missed having a dog around, and even though it will limit my social calendar for a couple of months, she is totally worth all the troubles. Her name is Emma and she is a boxer/husky mix. She is really adorable and even though she does have some separation anxiety problems, I think she will be a good dog once she gets used to being alone while Barb and I are at work.
I suppose life over all has been pretty good. I'm getting enough hours at work, I'm healthy (and getting healthier) and I found new joy in having a puppy to love on. I had been feeling pretty crappy emotionally for a while but I think that is all slowly getting better I think.
