One More Week
And I'll be preparing to board a plane to VEGAS!! I am so excited for a vacation, for Vegas and of course, to see my family! The only thing that would make it complete is if my sister could come. So much for working in the travel industry during spring break. :(
Other than that, not too much to report. I'm working and settling into my new hours at work. A position at the restaurant my roomie works at is possibly opening up and to further my working repertoire I'm going to put in an application. Would love to someday work up to bartender and it will also broaden my people-meeting horizons because now I'm not finding many eligible bachelors perusing through the kids dept at Macy's.
I am slowly developing a coat fetish and now own more different types of coats than I ever have in my life. Water proof is the big thing here, along with water proof shoes. The weather doesn't get to me as much as it did, but that could be because I'm now armed with the right defense.
The dog got a hair cut the other day and she looks adorable and is completely fuzzy. :) I'm so glad I have her here.
Laura found out she is having a girl (so excited!) and the baby clothes shopping extravaganza has commenced. I need to wrangle it in but when I can get an adorable 4 piece set for $3.....I can't pass it up!
I hope everyone is well. :)

Life....
Life is....
simple, hard, complex, confusing, exhilarating, scary, fun, short, painful, joyful, happy, sad, etc.....
And I have no answers. Not a single one. I, like everyone else, make it through life one day at a time, dealing and processing the information I have then. My mind changes. Situations change. Life changes.
I wish I had an instruction manual. Or better yet! A choose-your-own-adventure book. How easy it would be to just flip ahead in the book to see what choice leads to what outcome?!?!
I hurt tonight because someone I love got snide with me about my last post. I don't know what I'm doing here. But I know EXACTLY what I would be doing there. And it's safe and familiar and comforting...but it's the same thing every day. I want to take chances and see new things and have new experiences while I can. Maybe the loneliness I felt last month has subsided. Maybe I'm beginning to realize that I can do this.
Right now, right here in this moment...I want to be here in Oregon.
