I’m moving the blog. Again. Hopefully this one will stick.

I’m back!

Boy, I’ve been gone a long time! Lots has gone on, let me fill you in….

I really love it here in Arizona. Loving the weather (75 degrees today. Crazy!); love my job, they’re keeping me VERY busy; love my little apartment. I just got my internet hooked up today, I’ve been living off of mobile web (yuck) and using my sister’s computer when I had the chance. Almost two months without internet seemed like forever! I had a problem getting the wireless router to work, but finally when I restarted the computer everything was A-OK….except my computer was really slow (has been for quite a while now), so I decided to throw caution to the wind and restore the damn thing. I tried to have faith that all the files I needed were safely backed up on my external drive. SIGH. I think I’ll get most of my files eventually. That’s all I’m gonna say about that….

Which really sucks because I have a brand-new iPod Touch just waiting to be used! I splurged on it when I found out I was getting my settlement next month. Can’t wait to get out from under some of these bills. Obviously it’s not bad enough that I stop contributing to the bills….

OK, enough of that for now. I haven’t been knitting lately, work is super busy so I’m trying to save my hands, plus now my stupid ass computer is going to keep me busy for a while. Plus my sense of time is all off down here; I cannot believe next week is Christmas! I have cookies to bake on Sunday to ship to a certain someone, then more cookies to make Wednesday for our family get-together Christmas Day.

Well, time for me to try and get some sleep. It’s been a long day!

Namaste

Sorry…

…to the (two) people who read my blog, but posting is few and far between because I have no internet connection of my own right now.

I am mostly settled in to my new place, just a few boxes left to unpack. I’ve been applying for jobs like mad, both massage and miscellanious, trying to get something…anything…soon.

It’s been a surprisingly easy transition for me, this move. Only one day so far crying over the past…other than that it’s been stress and crying about the job situation (and not too much of that, even). I know it will work out eventually, but when I stress about money, I stress long and hard about it.

I took a massage class last weekend, which was lots of fun. I got to meet some local massage therapists and learn a technique I never thought I’d enjoy (I took it for the hours, not the content, so I can get my license) but really really do. Now I’m looking forward to the next “level” class I’m signed up for next weekend.

No knitting to speak of, c’est la vie.

All moved

I’m writing this from sunny AZ. The move was loooong, but thankfully uneventful. Lexie didn’t want to take her happy pills, so I had to listen to her cry the WHOLE drive. Not fun. Plus she’s being pretty clingy now, but as I get us more settled in the apartment, she seems to settle more too.

Like the apartment complex so far. Quiet, nice grounds, I’m right by one of the pools. People are nice. My place looked small with all the boxes in it, but now that there are only a few boxes left, it will be a comfortable size.

Next up is looking for a job! I was going to wait until after I got my massage license to look, but I always worry about money, and I figure I better start putting feelers out now. Wish me luck!

Namaste
