I've just been working and hubby's still looking for work. Things are still bad with the economy here.

I've also been doing a lot of reading.
Allons-y!

After four months of unemployment and food stamps, I had to give up my apartment. I'm now living with my brother in Newington, CT. I had to give my cat, Macintosh, to my best friend to take care of since my brother's apartment doesn't allow cats. This has made me very sad and I miss him a lot. :(

Working now but it's just a temp job until May. Don't know what happens then.
Kitty: Oh my god, you teach ethics?
Emma: Yes, do let's make jokes right now.
Kitty: I'm not joking. I have a very large problem with that concept.

I've bee working, just accepted a great promotion last week. I started a side business in October making candy bouquets and that is going well too.

I finished my first D&D campaign, which lasted almost three years. We just started a new game up a few weeks ago

I've stopped reading comics. I miss them, but all the crossover stuff was just too much, both money wise and time wise.

My dog passed away, as did my grandmother. I have this cat though that I decided to take in and she has developed quite the personality. lol

I'm still living up a holler, but I love he peacefulness plus the star gazing.

That's about it. I mostly work these days.

I've been walking among primal forms in a fundamental world.

Also, I've been doing the legal thing and have become extremely boring. You can ask Dusty.

I'm still at home, awaiting the taking off of a career, any career while working at a bookstore part-time. Having finally given up on engineering, I went to school to be a radiologic technologist (i.e., making x-rays). With that field seeing low turnover and high graduation numbers, I just got a job...as a clinical engineer at a hospital. Go figure. Hope it works out for me/I remember how to do that sort of stuff.

Otherwise, I've been doing the BONR thing as I have for, oh, going on eight years (we're always open, Chatterlies :P). I occasionally make self-important blog articles about various things and am about to take up scratch-building TFs and parts for them with a side of modding. I'm still doing a radio program two hours a week. I recently transitioned out of youth mentoring to focus on music direction at my church.

And I still have that old drunken squirrel infestation.

You crackers...I only recently took this place off my board's link list. Now I have to put the thing right back up there.

Bumhugs.
