Just an excuse

Smart Phone (stupid camera)

These are not the greatest photos - just an excuse to post something. The one of Charly, my bunny rabbit is an old one, taken a few months ago when he was just a small babyboy and the second one of Michael was take with my cell phone camera this morning. He looks like such a big boy in that swing but he is still a wee baby to me. He is getting to the point where he is not only trying to point and verbally identify objects, he is trying to verbally express his emotions and the way he feels, i.e. his disappointment in me for taking him away from the swing. It's okay though. While I'm eager for him to start talking, I know it will come soon enough and then I may just wish for the days where he was just making strange noises.

Boy oh boy have I had a hard time lately. All in a matter of a week I lost my wallet, my camera of 3.5 years decided to stop working and my car has finally failed me and it's time for a new one. Problem with that is that it's so close to the holidays (that means car dealerships will be closed) so either I'll be pushing it to buy one within a matter of days or I'll have to bum rides for an entire week or until I'm able to purchase a new one. And then, of course, there is the financing side of it, proof of income, people willing to work with you, credit histories, the economy and interest rates, new car registration, insurance, HIGHER insurance rates... blah blah blah... Just a huge mess. But it's one day at a time and I'm going out of town this weekend.

Nick and I are going to an FSU game in Tallahassee. We went to Atlanta last weekend but we didn't get much done. It was supposed to be a busy time of planning and getting things together but nothing came of it except a wonderful dinner with my father and a free meal at the nasty Flying Biscuit. Also, I got some tattoos touched up and a new pair of sunglasses. That's all though.

This weekend should be stress-free. I'm going out of town, which will enable me to not only physically but emotionally remove myself from everything that's going on in my life right now. When I get back, things will be so busy and will fly by but that's okay because like I said... I'm taking everything one day at a time.

And the holidays for me? Will be nothing more than a bunch of dog-sitting and trying to get my next year planned - bills especially. Bills have always been my number one burden but if I can just maintain the upper-hand over my debt, I'll be golden.

I really meant for this blog to be more poetic than just a bunch of random statements. But it really didn't turn out that way. Just an observation...
