Takin' the High Road ...

May 7, 2010 - 22:00

I can't write much as Ihave to get off to bed right quick. It's going to be an early morning as I have to play in a parade tomorrow. I thought I'd be puking all day with nerves, but I've been calm all day. Odd. I hope I can sleep ...

I also hope that somebody gets pics of me in my kilt. :)

Thank you to Jackie and Sandee for their glowing support, and Lavendar for her immediate nags upon discovering that I am online again. Yes, you heard it .. I'm back. I have no funiture, dishes, cooking supplies, or a microwave ... but I am online and in contact with my loved ones.

My new place is a 3 bedroom, double wide trailer. Rent is $900/month, and I've got a roomie coming mid-month to help with that. My hours are also going to be picking up in June (if not before), so I should still be able to afford to go to my birthday bash in Jasper. Might even be able to afford a tent. Maybe. Meanwhile, I'm saving ... and saving ... and wondering how I'm going to get there! LOL!

I know I have more to say, but my brain is fried from all the work I did today. Work was super busy, and then I cleaned my old place after that ... and PB&J just doesn't cut it for an energy recovering meal. I need a microwave ...

Oh, I do have a piece of good news ... somebody on the island wants to have a candle party with me ... combined with a "Joy Toy" show ... LOL! Should produce some good sales, and maybe I can get that microwave! :)

Sweet Dreams!

  2. I've been hoping to read that you found a new place to live. 'glad you have a roommate coming to help share in the expenses. Are you talking Jasper as in Wyoming? And just what milestone birthday is this bash going to be celebrating? Who the heck needs furniture when you have the computer and internet?! I have so much excess stuff to set up an apartment...I do wish we lived closer!

  3. Jasper is in Alberta's Rocky Mountains. And it won't be a milestone per se, just celebrating together with a friend who has a birthday around the same time and we're inviting friends to the bash. Booze not required - we bring our own good times. ;) And I wish you lived closer too. My island IS just NW of Washington State ...
