An update and a ramble

Life as of late has been very busy. I'm getting things back on track (as it seems I am forever doing) and trying to keep a good attitude. I have a habit of letting my attitude slip into oblivion and then stay there.

So what's been going on? Well, there's the dog. Dogs, more accurately. There's ours, who recently got sick and after a $700+ vet bill is probably going to be given away - to someone who can afford her when she gets sick. This is rather devastating to my husband, who adores her. It's a hallelujah moment for me. I don't particularly like the dog and I'm the one who has to do most of the dirty work of taking care of her so I'll be all too glad to be rid of her. Except, of course, for the fact that it hurts my husband so much to have to let her go. Then there's the one who is here so often she might as well be ours. No medical problems, just dumb as a brick. My mentor says that dogs are all the work of a severely retarded four year old for absolutely no real benefit or reason. At this point, I agree. Honestly, I'll be happy when we have no pets - and I'll be happy never to have one again.

There's the car. We got a new car that I am extremely pleased with. Not only does it have excellent gas mileage but it's pretty and handles very well.

There's the people who used to be our mentors: I don't know what in the world is going on with them except that they're now messed up. It's sad. I wish I could help, but I can't.

There's my business...going extremely well thankyou very much. Not well enough to afford a sudden $700+ vet bill but that will come in time. And I'm donating the profits from an entire line of merchandise to the womens ministry at our church (if anyone needs Christmas or birthday or any other occasion gift ideas, contact me)

There's my family, which I will not go into. Suffice to say I don't talk to them much right now.

There's the weird relationship I have with my ex. Not sure why I bother sometimes, since nothing I do can encourage him but for some reason I can't just cut things off. I've got to be here for him just in case. Plus, he's someone to talk to when I have noone else.

Aside from that, it's a bit of same old same old. Things are exciting, sure, but they're the same things.
