blabberings of today
for Christmas my mom came to visit for a week. It was great, despite the fact that I haven't been this sick in ages. :) I haven't spent any amount of time with my mom in years and years, so this was well needed. :) I sent her home today, much against her wishes. She stated in her own words that she'd rather be my full time dog sitter than go home ;-) I don't think Sedona and Dakota wanted to see their grammy go home either. The three of them were cute together ;-) She got them a frog toy (she LOVES Frogs) to remember her by. ;-) All in all, despite the Upper Respiratory and Sinus Infections, I had a great visit with mom and rather miss her already. I don't feel like driving the hour to Nicole's house for New Years fun, so i'll stay home and walk a couple of houses over to the neighbors house where I was invited for margaritas and such later.
I'm going to ask the Property Management company if the rent will be raised... if not, I think I will suck it up and stay out here. I'm already here and the house is awesome and the dogs have a yard. That way I'm not stuck here in an apartment I don't really love until December, and I can refocus on getting a job in Oregon. Maybe I'll work something out with Carolyn and Tom afterall ;-) I'll miss my friends here, but I really think that I want to be there when I do a deep soul analysis ;-) I love my friends here tho!
Well, I took a nap a bit ago, I think I'm going to sit down and finish watching Rent and find flights out to Charlottesville, VA (to dad's house). He's not doing well and he's starting to talk death, so I want to get out there to see him soon. Nicole, mom and Nicole's mom Edye all pitched in to help with the cost of a plane ticket to go and see him one last time... When he said "i'll keep breathing till I don't" today, it made me realize I need to get on it.
I have a couple of knitting projects going on now... scarves for mom and Eryka (my neice living with mom and John) and a new one out of chenille for me ;-) I'll take pictures and post (for Chelle's curiosity) soon.
