So I thought I'd put out a quick post to say hello and OMG life is so crazy right now. I have had a rare moment to myself, or even to spend with my family. All work and no play has definitely made me a dull, dull girl.
I've been juggling a full-time contract with a couple of smaller jobs; taking the house apart to get the floors replaced, which involved dealing with the stress of two not-so-detailed contractors replacing those floors, and a week between a hotel and staying with family; visiting elderly relatives, reluctantly conversing about whether or not I can assume the role of executor, getting 3-5 hours of sleep a day; fighting with my husband, who really has every right to be upset with me right now; trying to manage an extremely hyperactive strong-willed child who just wants my attention; fielding 'i want' phone calls and texts from my college student who is supposed to be enjoying college life and leaving me alone right about now but is bugging me about a new iPhone; dealing with the pain of neuralgia; and not doing housework and laundry, which takes me back to the husband being mad at me bit. Oh don't get me started - the list of what I haven't been doing is at least as long if not longer.
On top of it all, I'm trying to ward off the onset of a depression that interrupts my life every year this time of year when I am reminded that one of the only people in my entire life that got me, is gone and I've yet to come to terms with it.
To say I needed Calgon to take me away right now would be an understatement. What I really need is to be held tight - not for a moment but for a while - and be reassured that everything is going to be alright.
Then, I need to believe that everything is going to be alright.
Oh, and i almost forgot. I got another cat. Because, you know, I needed one and all.
Meow to all, and to all a good night.

There is little a new cat cannot fix.
And he is precious. :)
