An Update
Woman in the Middle | March 15, 2013Gosh, folks, my life is so busy right now! Between kids, pets, house, work, writing, community activities….I sometimes have a hard time knowing what day it is! So I thought I would give you an update post on various things.
1. So Cal Weather – I know I am somewhat obsessed with the weather. But with the ever-changing weather here in inland So Cal it gives me lots to talk about. Just a week ago it was raining and cold. Then we got some nice spring weather, even though it isn’t quite spring yet. Yesterday it was 95! Yep, 95 in the first half of March! So we went from Winter to summer in one week! I have no idea what to wear. Some parts of my body (OK, all of my body) are not ready to be on display but I really wanted to be wearing something briefer and cooler than work clothes yesterday!
2. Honey the Dog – I am happy to report that Honey is doing a bit better, finally. After two weeks of eating poorly she is finally chowing down a bit better and yesterday we started her on her medicine for Cushing’s disease. Cross you fingers that it goes well. Honey has been the picture of stunning good health for her first 12 1/2 years so we were expecting several more years of companionship. These last three weeks have thrown us for a bit of a loop so we are hoping that the worst is over and we can go back to a Happy Honey!
3. The New Job – The new job is going well. I have a background in planning and I am working the public planning counter in a nearby city The people I work with seem to like what I am doing. For the most part the time flies which I love. Nothing is more miserable than sitting at a desk bored out of your skull! Every day brings in new questions from the public which keeps me hopping. If I could move the job a bit closer to home it would be perfect.
4. Spring Vacation – That subject brings just one word to mind – HA! We had a five-day trip to Seattle planned and paid for next week to visit a dear friend. It was all based around my two daughter’s finals schedules. Our daughters checked online to see when their finals were and, happily, both got done very early in finals week. So I bought plane tickets and we started planning. Then Eldest Daughter got an email that said her final was going to be the 21st. What? Is was supposed to be the 16th! Our tickets had us leaving on the 20th! At that point the whole thing began to fall apart. Then, happily, our friend said instead of us going up there she could come down here. Since the main purpose of the trip was to see her and seeing Seattle was just a bonus but not a necessity, we put our tickets on hold and she bought a ticket with her frequent flyer miles. All’s well that ends well, I guess!
