I am learning to deal with change. I never enjoyed it very much, but I am coming to terms with its inevitability ( Read more... )

It has been a long time since I have written. Amazing! Here I am almost to the end of my community college classes. Just one more week! They've been interesting for the most part, but I am tired and ready for them to be done. I barely sleep at all and then crash on the weekends ( Read more... )

On Friday, I got my A/C fixed. All is right with the world and I can continue living.

This week has been exhausting. I'm getting less than six hours of sleep a night. I've started my two community college classes. I started Monday morning with a flat tire. But tonight I feel okay because I accomplished something big today (well, yesterday): I consolidated my student loans to lock them in at a low interest rate before the federal ( Read more... )

Well, I did it. I cut my hair short today. I finally gave in and let Sylvia at Supercuts just chop it all off. It's two finger-widths long on top and about 3/4" around the back and sides. I now look even more like I'm going bald. But I've come to the revelation that it's just hair and it will grow back. Who really cares? No one who knows me ( Read more... )

Last weekend I was looking for something in my storage locker at FPU, and noticed that the floor was wet. And so were the bottom level of cardboard boxes that were resting on it. So I got over there last night with some 2x4's from Home Depot. I pulled all the dry boxes out and transferred most of the stuff from wet boxes into dry boxes. I lost ( Read more... )

Well here I sit in my room typing away, catching up on all of my computer stuff that has been slacking for the past few weeks. I started feeling sick on Sunday, and it's been building. I had to leave work an hour early yesterday, and didn't make it in at all today. The worst part of it is that it is a beautiful overcast day outside, and I ( Read more... )

Well I took the plunge. I bought a blue-green 1993 VW Jetta. I think his name is Jordan. We'll see about that. Jordan has one big problem though...HE HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION ( Read more... )

Once again, I feel somewhat in limbo over all that's been happening. It seems to happen every summer. Not a child, yet not quite an independent adult. I have a job, but am still not completely self-sufficient. I like the Maurins, but I would love to be on my own. But the location and convenience of being here is unbeatable ( Read more... )

I have now been at Haig and Valerie's for three days. Most of the time I feel like a member of the family. I'm getting along well with their kids. Drew is the youngest, a year younger than I, and is the only one who still lives here at home. Kyle and Deanna, the middle son and his wife, are over here frequently because they are remodeling the ( Read more... )
