i guess when one door closes, another opens. i've tried hard to keep a friendship with my ex that might not have been a good idea. There's no breathing room for either of us, and i'm not sure how there can be if we talk everyday. it was making the transition hard for me. i had to step back, away from the bridge and try to find another way. Maybe one day, in the future, we'll be able to cope with having seperate lives.
My friend (an ex roommate) came to town, we got to have dinner a few times and spend time together. its funny how two years can change someone. And i suppose it can change your attitude and feelings towards them. i think the most bizarre is integrating a part of my pre-rennie mundane life into my rennie world. The results were pretty good. Without going into detail, i think this is a good start to rekindling an old friendship.
Work has been doing very well. Unfortunately, my brother quit his job today. i just don't understand why he would do such a thing. He said he was tired of waking in the morning and going to a job he hated. How many of us can identify with that statement!? But we --unlike he-- have bills to pay. So we go, we work, we make money, and we enjoy our time to play. i think, and i hope, one day in the future he realizes how much i've done for him and at least appreciates it.
in other 'today' news, it's my Mother's birthday. i got her a food processor. Seriously. why does one need this? isn't a knife and chopping board enough? She told me she wanted one and described it as "Short and round, with a long thing you can put things into." Welli. you can imagine what i was thinking. But i bought her the kitchen gadget and it made her happyi.as did the cash.
My sister's wedding is fast approaching. i need to get a suit or some such to wear to the wedding. Texas August Weddings are usually hot, so i may opt for a light shirt and tie outfit. My sister has been receiving many'o'wedding gifts. i'm actually a bit jealous, i wanna get married just for the kewl stuff. :)
My weekends are booked all the way up until second weekend september. i hope to try to sew some new garb by then, because it'll be not enough time until TRF begins! Maybe i can squeeze in a doublet and some new tights.
i miss all my friends!!! :) Comment with words!
My Blogs!
Things have been so busy lately, I've been blogging and after reading them, I've filed them under 'diary' or something to where only I can see them. Please don't take offense to the persona-non-grata blogs. They're just too personal, too intimate.
So let me tell you a funny story. One of my coworkers was on the phone with her niece who was staying at her house. They were looking for an extra set of house keys and my co-worker was telling the girl where to look. She directed her to the bedroom and said (at a volume so loud I think the whole building heard her) 'Look in the nightstand, BUT DONT OPEN THE PINK BOX! Don't you open that pink box...NO! Look on the dresser then..." LOL I was just staring at her and laughing hysterically...cuz I can guess whats in that pink box.
I went to San Antonio last weekend. I got to see my doggies... I miss them so much. Both are so silly. They have a baby pool and began jumping in and out and splashing. It's also raining, but they don't care. They have so much fun in that baby pool. Shadow kept picking up toys and bringing them to me so I can throw them, Midnight kept stealing the toys so no one can play with them. Midnight is very jealous if Shadow gives anyone else attention. Later on, they both kept trying to take apart my duffle bag so I couldn't leave again. The damn thing is practically shredded now. Jerry said he would bring the dogs to Houston, I told him there's a huge puppy park near where I work, so I think they would like that. Jerry and I have been doing a lot of talking lately, we agree the distance thing is good for us. My sister had asked me if Jerry was coming to her wedding, so I asked and he said yes. So we get to have a date that weekend. :)
And TRF is just months away! Damn damn damn. I have to start putting together some new garb. Which means I have to get my sewing room set up (table, machine, supplies etc) right now everything is kinda dispersed since I moved to Katy. I need to make some designs and post them soon.
A new post!

I've been silent for a while, it's because I've been exhausted! Work is hard! This is the first weekend I've had to just sit here and do absolutely nothing. Living with people has been difficult... they all seem to talk and do things at once and breathe air. It truly is trying, but as we all know I'll
I'm trying to get my brother a Job, he's only 15 and desperately needs to get out of the house and stop annoying me. Only that no one seems to be hiring 15 year olds. My Mother needs a job too, except she's not having that pesky '15 y/o' issue. My sister is pregnant again... I don't think she realizes what is causing this. My stepfather hired mexicans to mow the lawn, because he was tired of it... he gets all weird when he has to pay the guys and has to ask him to break a $20.
I'm currently looking for an apartment.
Next weekend I'm going to San Antonio to get some or all of my stuff. The weekend after that I'll be at Woody's Gathering, and the weekend after that (memorial day) I'll be at Scarby! YAY!!! Which is another reason I need to go to SA, for all my garb! :D I miss my puppies :(

Hello...
I have good news and I have bad news. The bad news first; my cell phone
is being turned off. Good news; I'm getting a new phone asap. So those
of you with my cell # will have to update it soon (when I get the #).
More good news: I got a new job. I start next week!
Even more good news: I got a permit to drive (yeah yeah, don't bug me about not driving...I'm working on it, see?)
I am very thankful for my friends who have supported me throughout this
messy move/ordeal/personal crisis/breakdown... I love you all, you know
who you are. And as always if there's anything I can do I will do it
for you.
The Partial Story
I went to a Job interview today, I'm still in Katy... so if you weren't aware I'm moving back to Katy hence the job search. I think the interview went very well and I'm hired, however I feel the car issue (or lack of an auto) might hurt me.
And as some of you are aware... I broke up with The Spaniard a few weeks ago. It's not a bad thing, we just grew apart. We're still friends, and I'm sure he'll be at TRF... but unfortunately not at Scarby memorial day weekend. I do plan on attending that weekend.
The dogs are staying with Jerry... I love them to death, they will always be my boys but I cannot have them here at this time due to living in a house where my nephew (1 1/2 years old). Needless to say a toddler and two half grown --still huge-- german shepherds make a very chaotic mix. There's so many other factors for them to stay in San Antonio, the major one is Shadow's Vet is there and they know his history of PEI and plus Shadow and Midnight are both scheduled to Stud a few litters. So one day there might be a Shadow Jr in my life.
So what does the future hold for me... who knows? I'm living with my parents again, which is so painful to type... but I get to spend some time with my family and especially my nephew and younger brother whom I haven't really had a chance to be 'big brother' to in years. Once I'm set here I can get an apartment or a roommate.
I had other plans... I wanted to do some traveling while I was in this inbetween state... but as a recent reading revealed to me that I have to go with the flow of events.
