A couple things have gotten in the way of my writing time:
-Moving. I have only just recently started to get everything under control. And under control is…probably an overstatement.
-Filing an insurance claim. I hope I never have to do it again….it's possibly the most annoying thing I've ever done. I had to double check a bunch of receipts and get new receipts from people who misquoted me, and my old landlord still owes me money. Lots of fun for everyone.
-Taxes. Losing your T4 among a mess of papers means stress….along with having to change your address, locate all your old tax paperwork, which is now everywhere because you moved all your possessions into a storage locker for a month and half, and then moved it into a new apartment the same month your taxes were due.
-A funeral service. We recently buried my grandfather. It was a very difficult weekend. There were good highlights, I guess….but burying your family…..it's not enjoyable.
I was supposed to say…I put a rose down for my Auntie Jocelyn, who couldn't be here. And one for me….and I suppose my older brother and Tammy, who couldn't attend because of a sick baby.
-New job: It's been a REALLY busy first month for me. They hired me in an upswing of work, and I have been working against the clock to help everyone finish their projects on time. The amount of overtime on my schedule has been a little much, but I'll be done it soon.
-A really busy social life: I have sort of ventured out into the world of dating again. That….takes up a lot of my time. ^_^ And my friends have been busy, as well.
In a lot of ways, life is perfect, even when it's not, at least for right now. I have a new job that I love, I have good people around me, and a good family.
Time for bed.
